Abstract
Coordinated customization of harvesting conditions to ambient power devices may be provided. receive Radio Frequency (RF) characteristics associated with a backscatter communication device may be received. Based on the RF characteristics and a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) from the backscatter communication device, it may be determined that the computing device has an ability to charge the backscatter communication device to at least meet a predetermined energy need of the backscatter communication device. Next, in response to determining that the computing device has the ability to charge the backscatter communication device, charging of the backscatter communication device to at least meet the predetermined energy need of the backscatter communication device may be scheduled.
