1. A communication device, comprising:

  • a dielectric antenna formed via injection molding of a dielectric material in an antenna mold, wherein the antenna mold has a shape that compensates for shape distortion of the dielectric material during a curing process;

    a cable comprising a dielectric core coupled to a feed point of the dielectric antenna; and

    a transmitter, coupled to the cable, the transmitter facilitating a transmission of first electromagnetic waves, the first electromagnetic waves guided by the dielectric core, without requiring an electrical return path, to the feed point of the dielectric antenna.
