Claim 19:
20. The system of claim 16, wherein the first waveguide section of the rotary joint comprises:
a first septum aligned along the rotational axis and extending from the first distal end towards the first proximal end of the first waveguide section; and
a first channel opening extending through an outer surface at the first distal end of the first waveguide section to an inner surface at the first distal end of the first waveguide section, wherein the first channel opening is adjacent to the first septum; and
wherein the second waveguide section of the rotary joint comprises:
a second septum aligned along the rotational axis and extending from the second distal end towards the second proximal end of the second waveguide section; and
a second channel opening extending through an outer surface at the second distal end of the second waveguide section to an inner surface at the second distal end of the second waveguide section, wherein the second channel opening is adjacent to the second septum, and wherein the first waveguide section and the second waveguide section are configured to propagate electromagnetic signals through the cavity of the shaft via the first channel opening and the second channel opening.
