Abstract
A rotatable circular waveguide structure is described that may comprise circular waveguide sections configured to propagate electromagnetic radiation. The circular waveguide sections may enable data signals to be transmitted between portions of an electronic device, such as a chassis and display portion, which may be rotatable with respect to one another. The rotatable circular waveguide structure may comprise one or more circular waveguide sections that are routed through a hinge of the electronic device, as well as one or more rotatable junctions. The rotatable junctions enable a rotation of circular waveguide sections with respect to one another as the coupled portions of the electronic device are also rotated. The rotatable circular waveguide structure may replace the use of data cables that are conventionally used to carry data signals between portions of an electronic device.
