Abstract
Embodiments relate to systems, methods, and computer-readable media to enable a wireless communication device. In one embodiment a wireless communication device is configured to radiate a millimeter wave signal through a circular waveguide. A patch antenna is resonated in a Transverse Magnetic 1-0 (TM10) operating mode and electrically couples to an open end of the circular waveguide. The electric field pattern of the patch antenna is such that the millimeter wave signal is launched into the waveguide propagating in a Transverse Electric 1-1 (TE11) mode. In other embodiments, various other configurations may be used as described herein.
