    Abstract: Wireless link management techniques for wireless charging systems are described. According to some such techniques, a power receiving unit (PRU) may be configured to observe a rectifier voltage while operating in a charge complete connected (CCC) mode according to which it possesses a wireless connection with a power transmitting unit (PTU) operating in a power save state. In various embodiments, the PRU may be configured to observe the rectifier voltage in an attempt to detect power beacons generated by the PTU. In some embodiments, the PRU may be configured to maintain the wireless connection if it detects power beacons, and to terminate the wireless connection if it does not detect any beacons. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: A power transmitting device is disclosed comprising: one or more coils; at least one memory that stores computer-executable instructions; and at least one processor configured to access the at least one memory. The at least one processor may be configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to: cause to send to a first device a first load measurement request at a first instance and a second load measurement request at a second instance. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to receive a first load measurement associated with the first load measurement request and a second load measurement associated with the second load measurement request. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to determine a first average measurement of the first load measurement and the second load measurement. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to send to a second device a third load measurement request at a third instance and a fourth load measurement request at a fourth instance. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to receive a third load measurement associated with the third load measurement request and a fourth load measurement associated with the fourth load measurement request. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to determine a second average measurement of the third load measurement and the fourth load measurement. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to perform a load measurement of the one or more coils of the power transmitting device. The computer-executable instructions may cause the processor to determine a presence of one or more rogue devices based at least in part on a comparison of the load measurement and an aggregate of the first average measurement and the second average measurement.

    Abstract: Generally, this disclosure provides systems, devices, methods and computer readable media for wireless power transfer with improved device identification and signaling security. A Power Receiving Unit (PRU) may include a receive resonator module to receive power from a Power Transmitting Unit (PTU) over an inductive resonant coupling link. The power may be modulated to provide signaling between the PRU and the PTU over the resonant coupling link. The PRU may also include a signaling link communication module to provide a second type of signaling between the PRU and the PTU over a wireless communication link. The PRU may further include a controller module to receive a random number, generated by the PTU, over the resonant coupling link; calculate an encoded response based on the random number and on an identifier of the PRU; and transmit the encoded response to the PTU over the wireless communication link, for verification by the PTU.
