Interference Detection for a Wireless Transfer Station
First Claim
1. A wireless interference detection device operable to detect interference during a wireless energy transfer between wireless transfer stations, the wireless interference detection device configured to:
- monitor an energy load on a wireless transfer coil of a wireless transfer station during a wireless energy transfer from the wireless transfer station to an other wireless transfer station;
detect a change in the energy load that exceeds a threshold value; and
adjust the wireless energy transfer by the wireless transfer station using the wireless transfer coil based on the detected change in the energy load.

Abstract
A technology for a wireless transfer station that is operable to detect interference during a wireless transfer of energy or data between wireless transfer stations. A transfer load on a wireless transfer coil of a wireless transfer station can be monitored during a wireless transfer of energy or data from the wireless transfer station to another wireless transfer station. A change in the transfer load that exceeds a threshold value can be detected. The wireless transfer of energy or data by the wireless transfer station can be adjusted using the wireless transfer coil based on the detected change in the transfer load.
