Abstract
A method for operating a microradio is provided. The method includes storing first parasitic energy received during a first charging cycle, powering a receiver with the stored first parasitic energy during a listening period, receiving a wireless control signal during the listening period, storing second parasitic energy received during a second charging cycle, selectively powering a transmitter with the stored second parasitic energy, and transmitting a signal responsive to the received wireless control signal.
