POWER DELIVERY INCLUDING OUT-OF-BAND COMMUNICATION

This disclosure is directed to power delivery including out-of-band communication. In general, a device to be charged and a charging device may interact using two separate wireless signals. A first wireless signal (e.g., a radio frequency (RF) signal) may be employed to charge the device. A second wireless signal of a different type (e.g., an infrared (IR) signal) may be employed for inter-device communication. An example device may comprise a power module to receive a first wireless signal, a transmitter to transmit a second wireless signal, and a charging control module. The first wireless signal may be for conveying power from a charging device to the device, the second wireless signal may be for transmitting information from the device to the charging device, and the charging control module may be to cause the transmitter to transmit the second wireless signal based on an indication received from the power module.
