An example method performed by a wireless-power-transmitting device that includes an antenna array is provided. The method includes radiating electromagnetic waves that form a maximum power level at a first distance away from the antenna array. Moreover, a power level of the radiated electromagnetic waves decreases, relative to the maximum power level, by at least a predefined amount at a predefined radial distance away from the maximum power level. In some embodiments, the method also includes detecting a location of a wireless-power-receiving device, whereby the location of the wireless-power-receiving device is further from the antenna array than a location of the maximum power level.
