Claim 18:
19. An apparatus of a network entity for wireless communication, comprising:
one or more processors configured to implement a power harvesting protocol; and
one or more interfaces configured to:
receive a power harvesting capabilities message from a channel engineering device (CED), wherein the power harvesting capabilities message includes one or more parameters selected by the CED that indicate capabilities for power harvesting at the CED, the one or more parameters including an aperture size parameter that indicates a first aperture size associated at least in part with a material of the CED;
transmit a power harvesting configuration message associated with the power harvesting capabilities message to the CED, the power harvesting configuration message indicating timing information associated with power harvesting signals used by the CED for power harvesting; and
transmit one or more power harvesting signals to the CED using a beam, wherein the beam is based at least in part on receiving the aperture size parameter.
