As is known in the prior art, smartphone 404 may also incorporate external hardware, such as cases, which may include a plurality of inductive elements 406 (not shown) for receiving the power sent by pad 402. The foregoing configuration may not really be wireless because a power chord may still be required. In addition, the location, of pad 402, and therefore of smartphone 404 may negatively be affected by the location of an available power outlet, i.e. if the wall outlet is in hard-to-reach locations such as behind a sofa or TV screen, so will be pad 402 and smartphone 404. The foregoing situation can easily be solved by eliminating the power chord used in the prior art. In an embodiment, wireless power transmission 400 may be carried out using a transmitter 408 and embedding at least one receiver (not shown) within pad 402. Transmitter 408 may provide pockets of energy 410 to embedded receivers which may provide power to inductive elements 406 from pad 402 for powering smartphone 404 wirelessly, Antenna elements 412 (as described in WIG. 2 and FIG, 3), from the foregoing embedded receivers, may be placed outside the edges of pad 402 for improved power reception independent of the location of transmitter 408. The foregoing configuration may be beneficial because pad 402 may no longer be constrained by the location of a suitable wall outlet, in addition, pad 402 can be put in easy-to-reach locations such as tables, counters and the like that are inside the range of transmitter 408, in some embodiments the range of transmitter 408 can be up to about 15 feet. The foregoing can be achieved by placing about 256 antennas in transmitter 408, and an embedded receiver with about 80 antennas. The power transmitted can be up to one watt.
[0035] FIG, 5 illustrates another embodiment of wireless power transmission 400 where a pad 502 (similar to pad 402 from FIG. 4 above) may include a plurality of inductive elements 406 and at least one embedded receiver (not shown). Embedded receivers may include antenna elements 412 located on the top surface of pad 502. This configuration may be beneficial when using a transmitter 504 located above pad 502, for
4213054..1
example in ceilings. In other embodiments, the foregoing pads, as described through FIG. 4 and FIG, 5, may not use inductive elements 406, but in contrast may utilize pocket-forming for transmitting power wireiessiy. For example, transmitter 408 may provide power to either pad 402 or pad 502 through pocket-forming. Then, a second transmitter within either pad 402 or pad 502 may re-transmit the power sent by transmitter 408 to electronic devices nearby the aforementioned pads. Lastly, electronic devices requiring power may incorporate external hardware, for example eases, similar to those utilized in the prior art for magnetic induction or electrodynamics induction. Such external hardware may incorporate receivers suited for pocket-forming instead of inductive elements 406, The aforementioned configuration may further expand the range wireless power transmission 400 because electronic devices such as smartphone 404 may not even be required to be placed on the pads, but only near the pads (up to 15 feet away for example). Thus, pad 402 or pad 502 may need only to be from about 2 inches x 4 inches in surface area.
[0036] FIG. 6 illustrates a pad 600 which in this embodiment may include a plurality of inductive elements 406, at least one embedded receiver (not shown) - for powering smartphone 404. As described above, through. FIG, 4 and FIG. 5, pad 600 may receive power wireless through pocket-forming and may not require a power chord for connecting to a power supply such as a wall outlet. In some embodiments, pad. 600 may also include at least one module 602 for storing charge, for example a lithium ion battery. Module 602 may store charge while charging or not smartphone 404. In some embodiments, pad 600 may utilize magnetic induction, electrodynamics induction of pocket-forming for powering smartphone 404 as described through FIG, 4 and FIG. S. Once pad 600 is charged, it may be placed at any location, or even carried around for powering electronic devices as described in FIG. 7 below.
[0037] FIG. 7 illustrates an example situation 700 where pad 600 may be carried around in a briefcase 702 for powering smartphone 404, Pad 600 can be carried in backpacks, women purses and the like. In some embodiments, pad 600 may be embedded within the foregoing items and sold as one charging unit. Furthermore, such a charging unit can be powered wireiessiy through pocket-forming or may incorporate a power

chord for plugging into a wail outlet. Devices inside a bag, purse or the like are by default, not in use. and can therefore sacrifice mobility while powering using the former option.
