First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wireless power transmitter comprising:
- a communication unit configured to receive information concerned with a requested power of a wireless power receiver;
a power converter configured to generate a supply power supplied to a power amplifier (PA) based on the information;
a detecting unit configured to detect a voltage of the supply power to the PA;
a controller configured to determine a reference current for preventing over current of the PA, based on the voltage of the supply power; and
a breaker configured to cut off the supply power supplied to the PA from the power converter based on a comparison of the voltage of the supply power and the reference current.

Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method that may stably perform wireless transmission. According to one general aspect, a power supply for a wireless power transmitter may include: a detecting unit configured to detect voltage, current, or both supplied to a power amplifier (PA); a controller configured to determine power supplied to the PA based on the detected voltage, the detected current, or both, and to determine a reference current based on the determined power supplied to the PA; and a breaker configured to cut off the power supplied to the PA based on a comparison of current supplied to the PA and the reference current.
