Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a phase sweeping procedure involves a first network node transmitting a first signal at a first phase while one or more second network nodes transmit a plurality of second signals at a plurality of second phases. In some aspects, the phase sweeping procedure may produce a plurality of combined signals, each combined signal a combination of the first signal and at least one of the plurality of second signals. For example, the first signal and the one or more second signals may constructively interfere with each other to produce a signal of sufficient energy to be received by an ambient internet of things (IoT) device. The ambient IoT device may transmit, to a network node, an indication of a received signal power associated with the combined signal.
