TRANSFERRING POWER TO A MOBILE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method for transferring power to a receptor mobile device from a donor mobile device, comprising;
- configuring a donor wireless power transfer mechanism on the donor mobile device using a wireless transmit application;
determining a donor power threshold using a wireless transmit application;
transferring power from donor mobile device to the receptor mobile device using the donor wireless power transfer mechanism and the receptor wireless power transfer mechanism;
wherein the donor wireless power transfer mechanism includes a primary conductor and the receptor wireless power transfer mechanism includes a secondary conductor such that the primary conductor and secondary conductor acts as capacitor plates and air between the primary conductor and the secondary conductor acts as a dielectric such that when electric current is provided to the primary conductor, the primary conductor and the secondary conductor act as a capacitor such that on discharge, generates electric current in the receptor wireless power transfer mechanism.

Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure may include a system for transferring power, the system having a donor mobile device. Such a donor mobile device may include processor(s) and a donor wireless power transfer mechanism coupled to the processor(s). In addition, the donor mobile device may include software application(s) that: (i) configure the donor wireless transfer mechanism on the donor mobile device to initiate power transfer; and (ii) transfer power using the donor wireless transfer mechanism. The system may also have a receptor mobile device including processor(s) and a receptor wireless power transfer mechanism coupled to the processor(s). Further, the receptor mobile device may include software application(s) that: (i) configure the receptor power transfer mechanism on the receptor mobile device to receive power; and (ii) receive and convert received power into electric current using the receptor power transfer mechanism.
