Systems and methods for nullifying energy levels for wireless power transmission waves
First Claim
1. A method for wireless power transmission, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a transmitter, from one or more sensors, location data about a location associated with one or more objects within a transmission field of the transmitter, wherein;
the one or more sensors include a proximity sensor configured to send the location data of the one or more objects, andthe one or more objects are associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level;
transmitting, by the transmitter, one or more power waves to converge to form a pocket of energy at a location of an electronic device; and
transmitting, by the transmitter, one or more power waves to converge destructively to form a null space at the location of the one or more objects, the null space having a power density level that is below the MPE level.

Abstract
Systems and methods to generate and transmit power waves are disclosed herein. An example method includes: receiving, by a transmitter, from one or more sensors, location data about a location associated with one or more objects within a transmission field of the transmitter. The one or more sensors may include a proximity sensor configured to send the location data of the one or more objects, and the one or more objects are associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level. The method also includes: transmitting, by the transmitter, one or more power waves to converge to form a pocket of energy at a location of an electronic device; and transmitting, by the transmitter, one or more power waves to converge destructively to form a null space at the location of the one or more objects, the null space having a power density level that is below the MPE level.

13. A system for wireless power transmission, the system comprising:
-
one or more transmitters, each of the one or more transmitters comprising one or more antenna arrays, each of the one or more antenna arrays comprising one or more antennas, wherein the one or more antenna arrays of a respective transmitter are configured to; transmit one or more power waves that converge to create a pocket of energy at a location of an electronic device, and transmit one or more power waves that converge destructively to generate a null space at a location of one or more objects, the location of the one or more objects based on location data received from one or more sensors indicating that the location of one or more objects is within a transmission field of the one or more transmitters, wherein; the one or more sensors include a proximity sensor configured to send the location data of the one or more objects, the one or more objects are associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level, and the null space has a power density level that is below the MPE level. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
