Abstract
Examples described herein include wireless transmitters configured for power transmission. Example wireless transmitters may insert power packets into wireless communications such that power harvesting circuitry may harvest sufficiently continuous power from the wireless communication signals. Example power harvesting circuitry is configured to harvest power across multiple wireless communication channels. Example chargers are described which may harvest power from wireless communication signals (e.g. Wi-Fi signals).
