More Information
Summary:Aspects of the subject disclosure may include identifying at least one parameter associated with a transmission medium of a communication system, wherein the transmission medium is defined by a first physical endpoint and a second physical endpoint, identifying, based on the identifying of the at least one parameter, a first location for deploying a first waveguide system about the transmission medium, wherein the first location is different from each of the first physical endpoint and the second physical endpoint, wherein the first waveguide system is configured to couple a first electromagnetic wave onto the transmission medium, and wherein the first electromagnetic wave is guided by and propagates along the transmission medium without requiring an electrical return path, and generating a first directive for deploying the first waveguide system about the transmission medium at the first location. Other embodiments are disclosed.
