Systems and methods for a multi-tenant wireless charging platform
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- a charging system storing first RFID (radio frequency identification) tag information of a first platform account of a platform system at an account system of the charging system, the charging system being external to the platform system;
responsive to reception of the first RFID tag information from a first RFID tag external to the charging system and the platform system, an RFID reader of the charging system providing the first RFID tag information to a power controller of the charging system;
responsive to reception of the first RFID tag information from the RFID reader, the power controller of the charging system determining whether the first RFID tag information is authorized for the charging system by using the account system;
responsive to a determination that the first RFID tag information is authorized for the charging system, the power controller controlling a charging transmitter of the charging system to generate an electromagnetic field that is receivable by a charging receiver external to the charging system; and
the power controller metering power usage of the charging receiver for the first RFID tag information,wherein the charging system receives the first RFID tag information from the platform system via a management device, and wherein the management device includes a client module that is constructed to;
receive from the platform system RFID tag information of RFID tags authorized for the charging system, and store the authorized RFID tag information at the account system via a interface device of the charging system.

Abstract
A charging system stores first RFID tag information of a platform account of a platform system at an account system of the charging system. responsive to reception of the first RFID tag information from a first RFID tag, an RFID reader provides the first RFID tag information to a power controller of the charging system. Responsive to reception of the first RFID tag information, a power controller of the charging system determines whether the first RFID tag information is authorized for the charging system by using the account system. Responsive to a determination that the first RFID tag information is authorized, the power controller controls a charging transmitter of the charging system to generate an electromagnetic field that is receivable by a charging receiver. The power controller meters power usage of the charging receiver for the first RFID tag information.
