Various embodiments of the present technology relate generally to wireless power systems. More specifically, some embodiments relate to the use of time reversal techniques utilizing time diversity (e.g., different multipath arrivals at the same antenna) to achieve coherency from the same transmission node. For example, instead of initiating outgoing transmissions (e.g., power signals) at the same time, various embodiments can initiate the outgoing signals from the various antennas in a staggered timing that is a reversal of the arrival times of an incoming signal. As a result of staggering the start of the outgoing signals, the signals will arrive at the destination at approximately the same time even though they have traveled different paths having different propagation delays.

The plurality of modulation signals include different information from each other and are transmitted over an identical frequency band and at an identical temporal point. The single modulation signal and the plurality of modulation signals contain parameter information indicating a number of modulation signals transmitted at the same time.
