Ambient power energizer control

An energy providing device, comprising:

• one or more memories storing processor-executable code;
• and
• one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively configured to, when executing the code, cause the energy providing device to:
• receive a first message indicating a first time period during which the energy providing device is to refrain from outputting a wireless energizing waveform;
• and
• transmit, in accordance with the first message, the wireless energizing waveform for one or more energy harvesting devices during a second time period that does not overlap in time with the first time period.

An energy harvesting (EH) device, comprising:

• one or more memories storing processor-executable code;
• and
• one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively configured to, when executing the code, cause the EH device to:
• receive a wireless energizing waveform;
• receive a message indicating a first time period during which an energy providing device is to cease providing the wireless energizing waveform;
• receive, a wakeup message during the first time period;
• and
• transmit, during the first time period and responsive to the wakeup message, an uplink data message.

A method for wireless communications at a reader device, comprising:

• transmitting a message indicating a first time period during which an energy providing device is to refrain from outputting a wireless energizing waveform;
• transmitting a wakeup message for an energy harvesting (EH) device) during the first time period;
• and
• receiving, based at least in part on the wakeup message, an uplink data message during the first time period.
