Dynamic activation and deactivation of switches to close and open slots in a waveguide device

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having stored thereon processor-executable program instructions which, when executed by a processor of a transceiver system including a waveguide device, having multiple slots, each slot having one or more switches, coupled to the processor, cause the processor to:

• direct each the waveguide device to receive, from a circuit controller, an instruction to dynamically deactivate one or more switches to open selected ones of the multiple slots at determined locations in the waveguide device and to dynamically activate one or more switches to close selected ones of the multiple slots at determined locations in the waveguide device, wherein the circuit controller is communicatively coupled to each of the switches on the waveguide device;
• and
• direct the waveguide device to transmit a wave in a target direction based at least in part on the determined locations of the open selected ones of the multiple slots at the determined locations in the waveguide device.
