Patent ID: 8909505

Claim:
A method of modeling a pathway for an electromagnetic wave, the method including the steps of: modelling a three dimensional lattice of close-packed hyperhedrons, each hyperhedron being rotated perpendicularly relative to its adjacent and contiguous hyperhedrons; including defining each of the hyperhedrons as a four sided volume externally bounded by four saddle shaped hyperbolic paraboloid curved surfaces defined by the eight shorter edges of four close-packed tetrahedral units; the four close-packed tetrahedral units sharing a common axis forming a main central axis of a first hyperhedron being a modular volume unit having six outer points, being equivalent to six spatial points of a specifically dimensioned octahedron, in which the distance between the outer points of the first hyperhedron on the main central axis is the same length as the distance between each pair of four outer adjacent points or corners in a perpendicular plane to the main central axis; four additional similar second hyperhedral units being close-packed and surrounding the first hyperhedral unit, the main axis of the first hyperhedron being perpendicular to each of the respective main axes of the four second hyperhedrons, defining one half of an oscillation of a wave form as being a line across said saddle shaped curved surface, defining a second half of one oscillation of the wave form by an extension of the line across the saddle shaped curved surfaces of adjacent hyper-parabolic interface curved surfaces of the adjacent hyperhedral units, and propagating the wave oscillation across the saddle shaped curved surfaces of the adjacent and contiguous hyperhedrons in three spatial dimensions, thereby describing a three dimensional pathway for an electromagnetic wave.
