Abstract
A wireless charging system is provided that includes a charger portion that receives one or more portable elements for charging wirelessly. The charger portion controls the amount of power needed to charge the one or more portable elements. An inband communication module receives inband communications with the one or more portable elements using a random access mode. The charger portion utilizes the inband communications to determine how much power is needed, via energy based reporting, to charge the one or more portable elements that avoids conveying identification information.
