Mobile and Multi-Device Wireless Charging

Wireless charging is a cornerstone technology for next-generation mobile and ubiquitous computing. However, its practical deployment has long been constrained by short range, poor flexibility, and lack of support for dynamic multi-device scenarios. In this paper, we propose ChargeX—a system that enables long-range and mobility-resilient wireless charging for multiple small devices. ChargeX pioneers the integration of metasurface-assisted magnetic beamforming, a high-frequency compact transceiver design, and a real-time closed-loop feedback-control mechanism. It further advances the field by introducing a joint optimization framework for dynamically allocating energy across mobile receivers with heterogeneous priorities and spatial-temporal demands. Experimental results demonstrate that it achieves meter-level charging distance, real-time response to device movement, and efficient coordination among multiple receivers, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art prototypes.
