1. An apparatus comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more processing systems of a wireless power reception device, direct the wireless power reception device to;
access at least one application program interface (API) associated with an application running on the wireless power reception device to gather power consumption information associated with the application,wherein the wireless power reception device is adapted to receive and process coherent wireless power signals, over multiple paths, from a wireless power delivery system in a multipath wireless power delivery environment; and
direct the wireless power reception device to provide the power consumption information to a power consumption determination system.

Abstract
Various techniques are described herein for calculating power consumption in wireless delivery systems. In one example, power consumption is calculated by receiving information associated with at least one portable device, identifying a discharge/charge curve associated with at least one battery in the at least one portable device, and calculating power consumption of the least one portable device based at least in part on the received information and the identified discharge/charge curve.
