ALTERNATING COMMUNICATION FOR WIRELESS POWER TRANSFER
Systems and apparatuses for wireless power transfer system are described. A receiver may send an amplitude shift key (ASK) signal to a transmitter. The transmitter may receive the ASK signal from the receiver. The transmitter may perform a demodulation on the ASK signal. The transmitter may, in response to a failure to demodulate the ASK signal, encode a notification of failure in a frequency shift key (FSK) signal. The transmitter may transmit the FSK signal to the receiver. The receiver may receive the FSK signal. The receiver may perform a function to resolve the failure to demodulate the ASK signal.
Waveform coding with modulation for single-user and multiple-user transmissions
Methods and apparatuses for performing wake-up radio (WUR) are described herein. A receiving device may comprise a receiver configured to receive a first preamble using a first frequency range. The receiver may be configured to receive, using the first frequency range, a WUR packet after the first preamble, wherein a bandwidth associated with the first WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the first preamble. The receiving device may be further configured to receive a second preamble and a second WUR packet, wherein the first preamble is frequency division multiplexed with the second preamble and the first WUR packet is frequency division multiplexed with the second WUR packet, and wherein a bandwidth associated with the second WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the second preamble. The first WUR packet and the second WUR packet may have an equal duration of transmission.

Interval management using data overlay
Computer assistance in interval management may be beneficial in a number of ways. For example, digital communication of interval management instructions or information related to interval management may beneficially be communicated to aircraft with respect to other aircraft. This information may be communicated overlaid on air traffic control (ATC) communications, or otherwise. A method can include, for example, obtaining a spacing goal for an aircraft relative to a target aircraft. The method can also include determining clearance instructions for the aircraft, wherein the speed guidance is based on the spacing goal. The method can further include transmitting the clearance instructions in a computer-readable format to the aircraft. The instructions can be provided by an overlay-modulated signal of a provided modulated ATC signal. The instructions can be configured to enable control of the aircraft to achieve the spacing goal.
