Claim 18:
19. A system for wireless power networking, the system comprising a first relay node and a second relay node, the second relay node comprising a second metasurface, the first relay node comprising:
a tunable metasurface operable to modulate propagating RF radiation incident upon the tunable metasurface, the tunable metasurface comprising a plurality of impedance sheets, wherein each impedance sheet of the plurality comprises:
a plurality of electromagnetic resonator networks; and
a plurality of variable electromagnetic components, wherein each variable electromagnetic component of the plurality is electromagnetically coupled to a different electromagnetic resonator network of the plurality and is operable in a plurality of operation modes such that at least one resonance property of the electromagnetic resonator network is altered by transition of the variable electromagnetic component between the operation modes; and

a controller;, wherein:
the controller is configured to control the tunable metasurface such that propagating RF radiation incident upon the tunable metasurface is redirected toward the second metasurface; and
the second relay node is configured such that propagating RF radiation incident upon the second metasurface is redirected toward the receive node.
