REDMOND, Wash., Mar. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

-- Ossia announces that its Cota(R) wireless power technology has been approved

by the FCC for use in the United States without any distance limitation.

Ossia Inc., the company that created Cota(R) Real Wireless Power(TM) -- the

patented technology that delivers power over-the-air, at a distance, and

without the need for line-of-sight -- today announced that it has received

another milestone FCC authorization for the Cota wireless power system. This

authorization removes the FCC's previous 1m distance limitation and frees

Ossia's radio-frequency-based wireless power system to deliver power to a wide

range of devices without any distance limitations. The newly authorized Cota

system can be sold throughout the United States.

Ossia is the first wireless power company to have its products approved under

the recently published FCC guidance that removes the FCC's previous 1m distance

limit for some wireless power technologies authorized under Part 18 of the

FCC's rules. In contrast to other companies' low-power devices authorized under

different FCC rule parts, Ossia's authorization under Part 18 means that Cota

technology is authorized to use significant power – in this case about 5W – to

send power to devices at any distance.

The news comes on the heels of Ossia's receiving authorization for the Cota

Real Wireless Power system to be sold and to operate without any distance

limitations in 45+ countries outside of the US, including throughout the EU and

UK, again at any distance.

"This is a tremendous milestone for Ossia. Cota wireless power devices are now

authorized without distance limits in countries around the world, and the

technology can be integrated into products for use in 45+ countries (and

counting) and in all 50 states," said Ossia CEO Doug Stovall. "We set out with

a groundbreaking technology that we knew would change the world. This is just

the tip of the iceberg in terms of the huge US market opportunities now

available for the Cota technology."

The Cota wireless power system has been through multiple rounds of rigorous

testing to prove compliance with FCC rules, including those on RF exposure

safety, which are the same rules that apply to Wi-Fi and cellular devices and

are among the most stringent testing standards for RF exposure safety in the

world.

"That Ossia is the first to receive this type of FCC approval for wireless

power is testimony to the effectiveness and safety of the Cota technology – and

provides a stronghold in meeting the power and safety needs of Ossia's

customers. We have now established a high bar for the whole industry," said

Hatem Zeine, a physicist and founder of Ossia. "With this certification, our

partners and customers are able to build and certify their Cota enabled

products and bring them to market. As more companies integrate and transform

their products with Cota, we will see more innovation and more adoption from

companies and countries around the globe. This is an incredibly exciting time

in the history of wireless power."

This latest FCC certification enables Ossia's current partners to integrate the

Cota technology into a broad range of products and applications at any

distance. Ossia expects this authorization to pave the way for a proliferation

of new devices and applications for wireless power at a distance.
