Power transmitting device, power receiving device, power supply system, and power supply method
First Claim
1. A power transmitting device able to transmit power to a power receiving device by emitting electromagnetic waves, the power transmitting device comprising:
- a calculating unit for calculating the maximum value for the emitted output of electromagnetic waves meeting exposure standards on the basis of a response delay time measured by a wireless communication link between the power transmitting device and the power receiving device, wherein the calculating unit calculates the maximum value for the emitted output of electromagnetic waves on the basis of conditions preventing a predetermined exposure level from being exceeded when electromagnetic waves are emitted at a maximum value over a reaction period at least including the response delay time, wherein the emitted output of electromagnetic waves has directionality, wherein each of the power transmitting device and the power receiving device is capable of transmitting data through the wireless communication link;
a power transmitting unit for transmitting power via a power supply link with the power receiving device at an output not exceeding the maximum value;
an anomaly detecting unit for detecting anomalies in the power supply link on the basis of communication with the power receiving device via the communication link, wherein the anomaly detecting unit is further configured to detect an anomaly in the wireless communication link; and
an output control unit for limiting the output on the basis of the detection of an anomaly in the power supply link, wherein the output control unit is configured to limit the output in response to an occurrence of the anomaly in either the wireless communication link or the power supply link, and wherein the output control unit stops the emitted output of electromagnetic waves in the power supply link in response to the detection of the anomaly in the power supply link.
