Abstract: Support of coexistence of wireless transmission equipment in shared wireless medium environments is disclosed, which is applicable to various types of wireless transmission equipment. For instance, a wireless power transmission system (WPTS) delivers power to wireless power receiver clients via transmission of wireless power signals using one or more frequencies and/or channels within shared wireless medium environments in which other wireless equipment is operating, such as access points and stations in wireless local area networks (WLANs). The WPTS is configured to co-exist with the operations of the other wireless equipment within the shared wireless medium environment by adapting its transmission operations to utilize frequencies or channels that do not interfere with other equipment and/or implementing co-channel and shared channels operations under which access to channels is implemented using standardized WLAN protocols such as PHY and MAC protocols used for 802.11 (Wi-Fi™) networks.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for detecting and handling evil twin access points (APs). The method and apparatus employ trusted beacons including security tokens that are broadcast by trusted APs. An Evil twin AP masquerades as a trusted AP by broadcasting beacons having the same SSID as the trusted AP, as well as other header field and information elements IE in the beacon frame body containing identical information. A sniffer on the trusted AP or in another AP that is part of a Trusted Wireless Environment (TWE) receives the beacons broadcasts by other APs in the TWE including potential evil twin APs. The content in the header and one or more IEs in received beacons are examined to determine whether a beacon is being broadcast by an evil twin.

Abstract: Various embodiments use prospective synchronization signals early in the signal reception to adjust framing cycles of communication nodes to reduce jitter. Some embodiments temporarily suspend messaging between existing nodes of a communication system while instructing new nodes to generate a beacon according to a beacon schedule. The system can monitor for responses from the new node and calculate a timing error. This timing error can be sent to the new node to adjust cycle framing. In some embodiments, these techniques for timing the receive (Rx) and transmission (Tx) cycles of a node (e.g., a client wireless antenna system) can be utilized such that the radio frequency (RF) energy received between RF energy cycles can be delivered directly to the node, stored in a client's battery by a wireless charging system, enhance the Rx signal opportunities, or make the integrity of the delivered Tx signal more efficient.
