1. A system comprising:
a transmitter;
a processor; and
memory, the memory comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to:
transmit one or more microwave signals to a communication molecule located in an environment having a plurality of cells, the one or more microwave signals comprising:
a first microwave signal having a frequency hopping between a first frequency and a second frequency, the first frequency corresponding to a frequency of a first peak in a microwave spectrum associated with rotational modes of the communication molecule, and the second frequency corresponding to a frequency of a second peak in the microwave spectrum associated with the rotational modes of the communication molecule.
