  • Publication number: 20250183989
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided for generating a transmission wave. The apparatus includes a plurality of antennas and a plurality of signal generators. The plurality of antennas has polarization diversity. The plurality of signal generators are each coupled to one of the antennas and configured to generate a continuous twisted wave by driving each of the antennas using independent, coordinated, and distinct sinusoidal waves, and having a twist frequency and a carrier frequency, the twist frequency lower than the carrier frequency. A method is also provided.
