Abstract
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of wireless power transfer. For example, an apparatus may include a controller to control a Wireless Power Transmitter (WPT) to transmit a sequence of probes during a detection period, to detect a Wireless Power Receiver (WPR) based on a detected induced load on the WPT during transmission of probe of the sequence of probes, and, upon detection of the WPR, to control the WPT to transmit a wireless charging signal to the WPR.
