Abstract: A wireless electronics device includes an energy storage device for storing electrical energy. A frequency detection circuit detects whether a received radio frequency signal is in a first frequency range or in a second frequency range, the first and second frequency ranges being non-overlapping. A first communications circuit transmits a first return signal if the radio frequency signal is in the first frequency range and establishes wireless charging of the energy storage device according to a first protocol. A second communications circuit transmits a second return signal if the radio frequency signal is in the second frequency range and establishes wireless charging of the energy storage device according to a second protocol.

Abstract: A batteryless wireless sensor system includes a data acquisition system, a radio frequency (RF) transceiver, and a batteryless wireless sensor device. The RF transceiver is in communication with the data acquisition system, transmits a RF signal, and receives sensor data and provide the sensor data to the data acquisition system. The batteryless wireless sensor device includes a RF transmitter, an analog to digital converter (ADC), and a sensor. The batteryless wireless sensor harvests energy from the RF signal and generates a DC signal based on the energy harvested from the RF signal, powers up and operates the ADC and the sensor based on the DC signal, and generates sensor data. The batteryless wireless sensor then transmits the sensor data via the RF transmitter to the RF transceiver. In certain examples, the ADC is implemented as a current mode ADC.

The system may be configured by associating the remote control with the load control device, and actuating a button on the remote control to configure the load control device. A second remote control device may be directly or indirectly associated with the load control device. The load control device and remote control may communicate via inductive coils that are magnetically coupled together. The remote control may be operable to charge a battery from energy derived from the magnetic coupling between the inductive coils. The load control device and remote control may include near-field communication modules that are operable to communicate wirelessly via near-field radiation.
