Abstract

A device is provided that includes a processor configured to identify a power transferring device and to determine a range configuration relative to the power transferring device, and to determine a power status of the device. The device also includes a first antenna configured to receive an oscillating power signal from the power transferring device at a first selected frequency based on the range configuration relative to the power transferring device, and on the power status of the device, and a first rectifier circuit configured to convert the oscillating power signal from the first antenna at the first selected frequency into a direct-current signal to charge a device load. A method for using the above device is also provided.
