radio charging
They work similarly for electrical transmission. A radio wave, once transmitted, propogates in all directions until it reaches an antenna tuned to the proper frequency to receive it.

Here's one example of how that capacity is used for radio charging:
A company called Powercast has devised two units used to transmit and... More...
