Patent attributes
A transceiver includes first electrical channels and second electrical channels. The first electrical channels are configured to transfer electromagnetic signals to first air waveguides. Each of the first electrical channels extend from a transmitter along an exterior surface of a chip package that supports the transmitter and terminate at first transitions on the exterior surface. Each of the first plurality of air waveguides are attached to the exterior surface and overlay one of the first transitions. The transceiver also includes second electrical channels configured to transfer second electromagnetic signals from second air waveguides. Each of the second electrical channels extend from a receiver along the exterior surface of the chip package that supports the receiver and terminate at second transitions on the exterior surface. Each of the second air waveguides are attached to the exterior surface and overlay one of the second transitions.
