1. A wireless connection system comprising:
a wireless power transmission system comprising:
a transmitter antenna configured to couple with at least one receiver antenna and transmit wireless alternating current (AC) signals to the at least one receiver antenna, while the at least one receiver antenna resides within packaging associated with an electronic device;
a transmission controller configured to:
provide a driving signal for driving the transmitter antenna based on an operating frequency for the wireless power transmission system, wherein the transmitter antenna is configured to emit a transmission in accordance with the driving signal, and wherein the driving signal is configured to generate an asynchronous serial data signal in accordance with a Near Field Communication (NFC) data transfer protocol, and wherein the asynchronous serial data signal is a universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) compliant data signal, and
wherein the transmission controller is configured to generate the UART compliant data signal in accordance with the NFC data transfer protocol by packetizing the UART compliant data signal in a synchronous NFC data stream having a header with a synchronizing command and length command;
a wireless receiver system comprising:
the at least one receiver antenna configured for inductive coupling with the transmitter antenna and receiving the transmission from the transmitter antenna, the at least one receiver antenna operating based on the operating frequency for the wireless power transmission system; and
a receiver controller configured to:
decode the transmission to extract a first data signal compliant with the NFC data transfer protocol and decode the first data signal to extract the asynchronous serial data signal.
