Abstract: A backscatter communication device assistant may be provided. A computing device may designate a client device as a backscatter communication device assistant. Next, a report indicating a location of a backscatter communication device may be received from the backscatter communication device assistant. Then the backscatter communication device may be caused to receive energy. Data originating from the backscatter communication device may then be received.

Abstract: A managed network supporting backscattering communication devices may be provided. A computing device may determine a plurality of locations respectively associated with a plurality of devices in a preterminal space. At least one of the plurality of devices may be power with energy transmitted from at least one Access Point (AP) to the least one of the plurality of devices at its location. Data may be received from the at least one of the plurality of devices in response to powering the at least one of the plurality of devices.
