Abstract
Systems and methods are described for operating a waveguide device having multiple slots, each slot having one or more switches. The waveguide device receives, from a circuit controller, an instruction to dynamically deactivate one or more switches to open selected ones of the multiple slots at determined locations in the waveguide device and to dynamically activate one or more switches to close selected ones of the multiple slots at determined locations in the waveguide device, wherein the circuit controller is communicatively coupled to each of the switches on the waveguide device. The waveguide device transmits a wave in a target direction based at least in part on the locations of the open selected ones of the multiple slots at the determined locations in the waveguide device.
