Systems and methods for using servers to generate charging schedules for wireless power transmission systems

A method of managing a wireless power transmitter, comprising:

• receiving, by a transmitter that includes an antenna array, device data that includes (i) data used to determine a location of a receiver and (ii) data that indicates a battery level for an electronic device coupled to the receiver;
• sending the device data and transmitter data to one or more servers that are coupled to the transmitter via one or more networks;
• receiving, from the one or more servers, a charging schedule for the transmitter that specifies a particular time at which wireless power should be transmitted by the transmitter to the receiver;
• determining (i) that the receiver is authorized to receive wireless power from the transmitter and (ii) that the charging schedule indicates that the receiver should receive wireless power at the particular time;
• and
• in response to the determining, transmitting, via the antenna array, radio frequency (RF) power waves to constructively interfere near the location of the receiver, wherein the RF power waves are transmitted via the antenna array of the transmitter at the particular time.

A wireless power transmitter, comprising:

• an antenna array configured to transmit radio frequency (RF) power waves;
• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the transmitter to:
• receive, by the transmitter, device data that includes (i) data used to determine a location of a receiver and (ii) data that indicates a battery level for an electronic device coupled to the receiver;
• send the device data and transmitter data to one or more servers that are coupled to the transmitter via one or more networks;
• receive, from the one or more servers, a charging schedule for the transmitter that specifies a particular time at which wireless power should be transmitted by the transmitter to the receiver, wherein the charging schedule is generated by the one or more servers based on the device data and the transmitter data;
• determine (i) that the receiver is authorized to receive wireless power from the transmitter and (ii) that the charging schedule indicates that the receiver should receive wireless power at the particular time;
• and
• in response to the determining, transmit, via the antenna array, radio frequency (RF) power waves to constructively interfere near the location of the receiver, wherein the RF power waves are transmitted via the antenna array of the transmitter at the particular time.
