Claim Text:
1. An ultra-high capacity interference-free communication system, comprising: a. a central communication controller (CCC), wherein said CCC comprises a wavelength-tunable light source, wherein said wavelength-tunable light source emits an optical data signal, wherein said optical data signal comprises a tunable wavelength, wherein said CCC controls said wavelength-tunable light source, wherein said control of said wavelength-tunable light source comprises conditioning, modulation and wavelength-tuning of said optical data signal, wherein said CCC comprises a signal-transparent optical crossconnect; b. a fiber optic network, wherein said wavelength-tunable light source is coupled to said fiber optic network; c. a pencil-radiating antenna (PRA), wherein said PRA comprises a passive 2-dimensional diffractive module, wherein said PRA is coupled to said fiber optic network, wherein said PRA is coupled to said wavelength-tunable light source via said fiber optic network, wherein said signal-transparent optical crossconnect routes said optical data signal to said PRA, wherein said optical data signal is transmitted through a confined optical pencil beam, wherein said PRA deflects said confined optical pencil beam in 2 angular dimensions as a function of a wavelength of said confined optical pencil beam, wherein said deflected optical pencil beam is disposed for communication with an opto-electronic communication device; and d. a radio return channel, wherein said radio return channel comprises upstream data communication when a connection with said opto-electronic communication device has been established and alternatively comprises a lack-of-connection communication between said opto-electronic communication device and said CCC in order to support a localization of said electronic communication device and steering of said optical pencil beam.
