Systems and Methods for a Configuration Web Service to Provide Configuration of a Wireless Power Transmitter within a Wireless Power Transmission System
First Claim
1. A power system, comprising:
- a plurality of antenna elements;
a radio-frequency (RF) circuit, operatively coupled to the plurality of antenna elements;
a processing apparatus, operatively coupled to the RF circuit, wherein the processing apparatus is configured to cause the RF circuit and plurality of antenna elements to generate pocket-forming energy in three dimensional space; and
communications for communicating with at least one of (i) a receiver, configured to receive the pocket-forming energy in three dimensional space for charging, and (ii) a web service,wherein the processing apparatus is configured to receive operational parameters for the power system via the communications and process the operational parameters to configure operation for the power system.

Abstract
A system and method for a configuration web service to provide configuration of a wireless power transmitter within a wireless power transmission system is disclosed. The wireless power transmitter configuration network may include at least one wireless power transmitter connected to an energy power source and at least one computer device which may communicate with each other through wireless or wired network connections, where each wireless power transmitter may include a distributed system database coupled to web service software. The operator/user may browse the specific URL or IP address associated with the configuration web page, which the wireless power transmitter may host and render, to specify the wireless power transmitter'"'"'s configuration information. The configuration web service may allow users to perform configurations with and without the need of an external network service in range and regardless of the physical location of the wireless power transmitter.
