METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR OPTIMIZING LOCATION-BASED WIRELESS CHARGING
First Claim
1. A method for optimizing wireless charging comprising:
- identifying, by a charging controller, charging apparatus location information associated with a wireless charging apparatus configured to direct charging beams;
identifying, by the charging controller, an optimal charging zone of the wireless charging apparatus based at least in part on the charging apparatus location information;
receiving, by the charging controller, a first location information associated with a mobile device;
determining, by the charging controller, a first proximity of the mobile device to the optimal charging zone of the wireless charging apparatus based at least in part on the first location information; and
transmitting, by the charging controller, first optimal charging indicator information to the mobile device, the first optimal charging indicator information based at least in part on the first proximity.
