In the previous article on the transceiver, we were left with a confusing picture of the requirements not matching up with what most would know of the general options available. Specifically, we required something like a maser, with the flexibility of an AESA radar and completely unheard of ground penetrating capability.
Further, while not mentioned in the previous article, not only must it have this huge ground penetrating capability, but it must also somehow permit Terahertz signals to penetrate to this extreme depths in order to scan the brain properly and stimulate muscle tissue.
Enter the Plasma Maser:
The main idea of a plasma maser effect is to use plasma nonlinearities for wave amplification when there is no inverse particle population. This possibility occurs when the particle distribution is a homogeneous and in the presence of intense radiation (waves).
…The plasma maser can produce a large up-conversion or down-conversion in frequencies and is not restricted in frequency domain although the efficiency of up- or down-conversion decreases with increasing frequency difference.

The Plasma Maser is an evolution upon the single frequency Maser which is the product of a population inversion. This Maser has the broadband, or Ultra-Wide Band, qualities of an AESA radar permiting spread spectrum operation modes and ground penetrating capabilities.
Analysis of other research material relating to the technology shows the first public records of its development around 1963 using a Cyclotron and solid state technology emerging by 1970. As such, we can possibly reasonably conclude military exploration of the technology in the early to late 50s.
This resolves one of the most critical aspects that was proving to be a stumbling block in describing the transceiver of System X.
The next huge stumbling block was electronic steering. When looking at how an AESA radar steers its beams, it relies on the gain of the antenna elements in the array which does not exist in a Maser array. This said, I did discover some information indicating that steering is possible using other techniques:
A concept of power beaming by a cyclotron-resonance maser (CRM) array is presented theoretically. In this scheme, the CRM-array operates as an active phased-array antenna, and radiates directly from its output aperture. The gain and phase of each CRM element in the array are controlled by the voltage and current of its electron gun. The consequent phase difference between the CRM-element outputs enables the steering of the radiation beam in the far field.

This paper is from 1998 and, as of yet, I have not been able to uncover a development history stretching back to the 60s. It may be the case that this was a highly classified component. Indeed, it is espected that current state-of-the-art will be solid state and that this approach requires modification.
Finally, we have a general requirement of somehow getting Terahertz waves to pass through up to 50m of ground, including rivers (26m deep) and through steel (3-6 inches). This is proving much more elusive.
What I understand is that some physical process permits the tunnelling of a Terahertz beam nested within one or more beams. A type of virtual waveguide. At present, this is highly theoretical assumption based on the observed characteristics and no information has been found in the public domain. Again, this could be highly classified.
I think what we can safely conclude is that the technology is being narrowed down and that the outstanding criteria are probably highly classified breakthroughs, or referenced obscurely on the web somewhere.
What’s for certain though, is that with the above technology, I could interface with the brain when a person is out in the open. Resolution of the last outstanding item means I could interface with them anywhere and that’s what is being described around the world.
