1. A method for processing a greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam, the method comprising:

  • modulating, via a processor of a mobile endpoint device, the greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam to produce a modulated greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam;

    receiving, via the processor, the modulated greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam via a metamaterial having a plurality of addressable magnetic elements, where a resonant frequency of each of the plurality of addressable magnetic elements is capable of being programmably changed via an adjustment;

    detecting, via the processor, location information of the modulated greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam via a plurality of additional magnetic elements of the metamaterial; and

    activating, via the processor, a subset of the plurality of addressable magnetic elements to manipulate the modulated greater than one millimeter frequency electromagnetic beam based upon the location information that is detected.
