Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and information processing system
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a communication unit to wirelessly communicate with an external apparatus using a first carrier wave having a first frequency; and
a power receiving unit to wirelessly receive power from the external apparatus using a second carrier wave of a second frequency, the second frequency being different from the first frequency.

Abstract
A power charging system is provided. The power charging system may have an information processing apparatus having a first communication unit and a power receiving unit, and an external apparatus having a second communication unit and a power transmission unit. The second communication unit may be configured to wirelessly communicate with the first communication unit using a first carrier wave having a first frequency and the power transmission unit may be configured to wirelessly transmit power to the power receiving unit using a second carrier wave having a second frequency, the second frequency being different from the first frequency.

9. A method for use in a first apparatus which is operable with an external apparatus, the method comprising:
-
detecting a power transmit request signal from the external apparatus; transmitting to the external apparatus a response signal to permit a start of power transmission in response to the detected power transmit request signal; receiving from the external apparatus a frequency change request signal to request a change of a resonant frequency of a resonance circuit in the first apparatus from a first frequency to a second frequency, in which a communication carrier wave having the first frequency is utilized for communication with the external apparatus; changing the resonant frequency of the resonance circuit from the first frequency to the second frequency in response to the frequency change request signal from the external apparatus; and receiving power by way of a power transmission carrier wave having the second frequency. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

21. A computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions for causing a first apparatus to perform an operation method, said method comprising:
-
detecting a power transmit request signal from an external apparatus; transmitting to the external apparatus a response signal to permit a start of power transmission in response to the detected power transmit request signal; receiving from the external apparatus a frequency change request signal to request a change of a resonant frequency of a resonance circuit in the first apparatus from a first frequency to a second frequency, in which a communication carrier wave having the first frequency is utilized for communication with the external apparatus; changing the resonant frequency of the resonance circuit from the first frequency to the second frequency in response to the frequency change request signal from the external apparatus; and receiving power by way of a power transmission carrier wave having the second frequency.
