Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving two or more input radio-frequency (RF) signals, each input RF signal being received on a separate input channel and having a different frequency range. The method also includes amplifying each input RF signal of the two or more input RF signals separately to produce two or more respective amplified RF signals. The method further includes aggregating the two or more amplified RF signals into one aggregated communication signal using a passive waveguide multiplexer, where the aggregated communication signal is an E-band communication signal having a frequency range within approximately 71-76 GHz or approximately 81-86 GHz. The method also includes transmitting the aggregated communication signal.
