Claim 6:
7. An electromagnetic energy beam steering method comprising:
receiving a first signal at a Luneburg lens, wherein the first signal comprises a communication signal transmitted using either a 4G or a 5G wireless access technology;
collecting a first collected signal from the Luneburg lens at a first antenna, wherein the first antenna is located at a first focal point of the Luneburg lens; and
transmitting the first collected signal through a transmission line system, wherein the transmission line system transmits the first collected signal from the first antenna and combines the first collected signal with a signal used to mitigate self-interference cancellation to create a first transmit signal which is then transmitted to a second antenna and transmitted through the Luneburg lens, wherein the second antenna is located at a second focal point of the Luneburg lens.
