APPARATUS, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR STRUCTURED WAVEGUIDE TRANSPORT

摘要

An apparatus, method, computer program product, and propagated signal for a transport having a waveguide including a guiding region and one or more bounding regions for enhancing containment of transmitted radiation within the guiding region; and a plurality of constituents disposed in the waveguide for enhancing an influencer response attribute of the waveguide. A method of operating a transport includes: (a) transmitting radiation through a waveguide including a guiding region and one or more bounding regions for enhancing containment of transmitted radiation within the guiding region wherein the radiation includes one or more long-distance communication attributes and an influencer; and (b) enhancing a response of the transmitted radiation to an influencer applying an influence on the waveguide using a plurality of constituents disposed in the waveguide. Additionally taught is a method, computer program product, and a propagated signal for a method for manufacturing such waveguides.
