METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ADJUSTING WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS |
摘要 |
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method for adjusting an operational parameter of electromagnetic waves supplied to a feed point of a dielectric antenna to modify a beamwidth of far-field wireless signals generated by the dielectric antenna, the electromagnetic waves propagating along the feed point without an electrical return path, detecting that the beamwidth of the far-field wireless signals needs to be adjusted to improve a reception of the far-field wireless signals by a remote system, and adjusting the operational parameter of the electromagnetic waves to adjust the beamwidth of the far-field wireless signals. Other embodiments are disclosed. |

1. A method, comprising:
adjusting, by a waveguide system, an operational parameter of electromagnetic waves supplied to a feed point of a dielectric antenna to modify a beamwidth of far-field wireless signals generated by the dielectric antenna, the electromagnetic waves propagating to the feed point without an electrical return path; detecting, by the waveguide system, that the beamwidth of the far-field wireless signals needs to be adjusted to improve a reception of the far-field wireless signals by a remote system; and readjusting, by the waveguide system, the operational parameter of the electromagnetic waves to readjust the beamwidth of the far-field wireless signals. |
