1. A wireless power feeder, comprising:
- a plurality of coils; and
a controller configured to determine a first coil from the plurality of coils based on power transmitted from each of the plurality of coils to an external apparatus,wherein the first coil receives power from a power source,wherein the controller is configured to determine the first coil based on at least one of an actual transmitted power from each of the plurality of coils and a reactive power from each of the plurality of coils,wherein the actual transmitted power is transmitted from one of the plurality of coils to the external apparatus, andwherein the reactive power is not transmitted from any of the plurality of coils to the external apparatus.

10. A wireless power feeder, comprising:
-
a plurality of coils; and a controller configured to determine a first coil from the plurality of coils based on power transmitted from each of the plurality of coils to an external apparatus, wherein the first coil receives power from a power source, wherein the controller is configured to determine the first coil based on a change of a slope of at least one of an actual transmitted power from each of the plurality of coils and a reactive power from each of the plurality of coils, wherein the actual transmitted power is transmitted from one of the plurality of coils to the external apparatus, and wherein the reactive power is not transmitted from any of the plurality of coils to the external apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
