Methods and systems for mobile charging of wireless stations with wireless communications on a wireless local area network (WLAN). A mobile charging unit is operable with coordinated wireless asset management for navigation and mobile charging capabilities to service wireless stations. In an example implementation, a mobile charging unit identifies stations on the WLAN are battery operated and support wireless charging, determines when a charging operation is needed, provides automated navigation to the associated stations, and initiates wireless charging of the identified stations.
