Wireless power transmitter, wireless power receiver, and control methods thereof
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a wireless power transmitter configured to transmit power to a wireless power receiver, the method comprising:
- applying a detection power for detecting change in a load of the wireless power transmitter caused by a placement of the wireless power receiver;
detecting the change in the load of the wireless power transmitter;
determining whether a first signal from the wireless power receiver is received or not within a predetermined time after detecting the change in the load of the wireless power transmitter; and
transmitting a second signal to the wireless power receiver if the first signal from the wireless power receiver is received within the predetermined time after detecting the change in the load of the wireless power transmitter and a reception intensity of the first signal is greater than a threshold.

Abstract
A control method of a wireless power transmitting unit transmitting charging power to a wireless power receiving unit is provided. The control method includes receiving first signals from one or more wireless power receiving units; classifying wireless power receiving units to be communicated with from among the one or more wireless power receiving units based on reception intensities of the received first signals; transmitting wireless transmission power with predetermined level; receiving second signals including voltage information of the classified wireless power receiving units from the classified wireless power receiving units; and communicating with one or more wireless power receiving unit among the classified wireless power receiving units based on the wireless transmission power and the voltage information of the second signals.

6. A wireless power transmitter configured to transmit power to a wireless power receiver, the wireless power transmitter comprising:
-
a resonant signal generator configured to transmit the power to the wireless power receiver; a controller configured to apply a detection power for detecting change in a load of the wireless power transmitter caused by a placement of the wireless power receiver to the resonant signal generator, and detect the change in the load of the wireless power transmitter; and a wireless communication unit configured to receive a first signal from the wireless power receiver, wherein the controller is configured to control transmitting a second signal to the wireless power receiver if the first signal from the wireless power receiver is received within a predetermined time after detecting the change in the load of the wireless power transmitter and a reception intensity of the first signal is greater than a threshold. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)
