OK, OK, I could not get even close to any help on my previous question, so I will explain my theory (and for the smart guy that states that without math, it is not a theory, look up the word in a dictionary!)
My 'concept' (there I took the word theory out) is similar to carrier waves and harmonics.
We already have used the idea of 'piggybacking' signals one upon another. secondarily, light waves, much in te same way that sound waves do, can generate harmonic and sympathetic vibrations. Think of it as a guitar being tuned. When one string is played and the other is being tuned to it, there comes a third vibration as the two are very close, but not, at the same frequency
This third sound is much stronger than the two individual sounds that combine to create it.
My FTL sustem would consist of a large tube, with coils that can produce and electromagnetic pulse to "ride" this harmonic/sympathetic wave.
I call it the 'light grapple'. and the theory has been used with sound waves.
