14. An apparatus, comprising:
a plurality of communication holographic metasurface antennas (HMA) devices that are arranged as a network fabric in a physical area and configured to communicate wireless millimeter waveform signals between one or more wireless base stations and one or more holographic beamforming antennas over the physical area to enable communication of the wireless millimeter waveform signals by the network fabric;
a first holographic beamforming antenna that is arranged to receive a downlink wireless millimeter waveform signal from a wireless base station that is communicated by the network fabric to the first holographic beamforming antenna; and
a downlink amplifier configured for input from the first holographic beamforming antenna and output to another antenna.
