Claim 17:
18. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a load;
a wireless power receiver system comprising:
at least one receiver antenna configured for inductive coupling with a transmitter antenna and receiving a transmission in accordance with a wireless power and data transfer protocol from the transmitter antenna, the at least one receiver antenna operating at an operating frequency;
a power conditioning system configured to (i) receive the transmission from the at least one receiver antenna, (ii) convert the received transmission to a DC power signal, and (iii) provide the DC power signal at least to the load; and
a receiver controller configured to
decode the transmission to extract a first data signal compliant with the wireless power and data transfer protocol and decode the first data signal compliant with the wireless power and data transfer protocol to extract a first asynchronous serial data signal,
encode a second asynchronous serial data signal as a second data signal compliant with the wireless power and data transfer protocol, and
selectively alter the DC power signal to encode the second data signal compliant with the wireless power and data transfer protocol into the DC power signal; and

an out of band communications system configured to take over data communications from the wireless power receiver system when the load has a power level to perform out of band communications, wherein the out of band communications system receives data in accordance with an out of band communications protocol.
