Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A signal generator generates an electrical signal that is sent to an amplifier, which increases the power of the signal using power from a power source. The amplified signal is fed to a sender transducer to generate ultrasonic waves that can be focused and sent to a receiver. The receiver transducer converts the ultrasonic waves back into electrical energy and stores it in an energy storage device, such as a battery, or uses the electrical energy to power a device. In this way, a device can be remotely charged or powered without having to be tethered to an electrical outlet.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A system having a first value of a configuration parameter, comprising: a receiver transducer adapted and configured to receive waves generated by the sender transducer and to generate a receiver electrical signal based on the received waves; and a receiver controller coupled to the receiver transducer, the receiver controller causing the receiver to receive energy having a first phase based on the first value of the configuration parameter, the ener…
