Abstract
A method and system for an integrated transceiver is presented. The integrated transceiver includes a transceiver housing, where a waveguide is formed inside the transceiver housing using a transceiver housing and a sub-floor component. Neither transceiver housing nor the sub-floor component alone is configured to operate as a waveguide. The integrated transceiver can include a transceiver housing that forms a portion of an integrated waveguide assembly, where the transceiver housing alone does not form the waveguide, and another portion of the integrated waveguide assembly couples with the transceiver housing to form the waveguide of the integrated waveguide assembly. Further, the integrated waveguide portion of the sub-floor component can be a flat surface, where the integrated waveguide portion of the transceiver housing comprises substantially all the features of said integrated waveguide.
