Patent attributes
Wireless charging systems, and methods of use thereof, are disclosed herein. As an example, a method includes: receiving, by a radio of a transmitter, a communication signal from a wireless-power-receiving device, the communication signal containing location data indicating a location of the wireless-power-receiving device. The method further includes, in response determining that the location of the wireless-power-receiving device is within a predetermined range from the transmitter: (i) generating sound waves from a sound wave integrated circuit of the transmitter and (ii) transmitting the sound waves through a plurality of transducer elements to the location of the wireless-power-receiving device, wherein the sound waves are transmitted so that they converge constructively to form a controlled constructive interference pattern in three-dimensional (3-D) space at the location of the wireless-power-receiving device.
