Abstract:
Un dispositivo de carga de energía inalámbrica (710, 800), configurado para cargar un dispositivo electrónico (820) caracterizado por medios configurados para recibir información desde un servidor (720), pudiendo conectarse el dispositivo de carga de energía inalámbrica al servidor a través de una red; definiendo la información un intervalo de tiempo dentro del cual cargar un dispositivo electrónico; medios configurados para permitir selectivamente la transmisión de energía inalámbrica al dispositivo electrónico (820) durante el intervalo de tiempo; y medios configurados para transmitir energía de forma inalámbrica a una frecuencia sustancialmente resonante durante el intervalo de tiempo.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless charging. A charging system (420) may comprise at least one power generation system (402) configured to convert renewable energy to another form of energy and convey the another form of energy. The charging system may further include at least one transmit antenna (426) coupled to the at least one power generation system and configured to receive the another form of energy from the at least one power generation system. Further, the at least one transmit antenna is configured to wirelessly transmit energy to at least one other antenna positioned within an associated coupling-mode region.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless power transfer. A transmitting device or a receiving device for use in a wireless transfer system may be equipment or a household appliance. The transmitting device includes a transmit antenna to wirelessly transfer power to a receive antenna by generating a near field radiation within a coupling-mode region. An amplifier applies an RF signal to the transmit antenna. A presence detector detects a presence of a receiver device within the coupling-mode region. A controller adjusts a power output of the amplifier responsive to the presence of a receiver device. The presence detector may also detect a human presence. The power output may be adjusted at or below the regulatory level when the presence signal indicates human presence and above a regulatory level when the presence signal indicates human absence.

Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to timing and control of wireless power transfer. A wireless power charging device includes at least one transmitter and a processor in communication with the at least one transmitter. The transmitter is configured for transmitting wireless power to one or more electronic devices, and the processor is configured to deactivate the transmitter during a pre-determined time interval. The charging device may include charging modes that a user may select between from an interface of the charging device. Charging modes may be related to times of operation such as those based on a user schedule, based on energy rates, or with modes programmed by a user. A charging schedule may be created by a user through the interface of the charging device or from an external device in communication with the charging device.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless electronic devices. A method may comprise receiving a wireless signal with an antenna and indentifying one of a wireless charging module and a near-field communication module to which the received signal is associated. The method may further comprise conveying the received signal to the identified one of the wireless charging module and the near-field communication module.
