  • Publication number: 20160301243
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for inferring a status of a primary battery for an electronic device in a wireless power delivery environment. In some embodiments, the status of the primary battery can be inferred, without any feedback regarding a status of the primary battery, based on a wireless charging profile of the primary battery and power usage characteristics that are monitored. In some embodiments, the wireless power transmission system utilizes the information inferred about a particular wireless device's primary battery to control or allocate how much wireless power is allocated to a particular wireless power receiver client embedded and/or otherwise associated with the wireless device.

  • Publication number: 20150207542
    Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for a charger which interacts with devices equipped with receivers. The charger may likewise have access to a server via a network connection. The charger receives a beacon signal from the receiver, and transmits power, and a control signal, to the device. Applications enable proper communication between the charger and the receiver. The receiver interprets and effectuates the commands. The receiver also includes sensors which generate data regarding the device status and usage. This data is provided to the server, via the charger. The server maintains a database of all user data collected from the devices, as well as user configurations. The user and third parties may access this data.

  • Publication number: 20150042526
    Abstract: A system and method for wirelessly transmitting signals via antenna phased array. In order to decrease the distance between individual antennae in the array, the antennae are submersed in a high dielectric material in addition to being arranged at right angles to one another, both features precluding one or more antennae from coupling. Furthermore, wires are covered in high dielectric material in order to refract RF signals around them, allowing antennae towards the center of the array to successfully transmit signals past other layers.

  • Publication number: 20140217967
    Abstract: A transmitter assembly is useful in optimizing in the delivery of wireless power to a plurality of receivers. Each receiver measures its own battery need for power and transmits that measurement as a request to the transmitter. The transmitter is configured to normalize and compare battery need requests. The transmitter then allocates pulses of wireless power among the requesting receivers according to their battery need.
