Methods and systems for compatible operation between a wireless power transfer system and wirelessly communicating vehicle systems
First Claim
1. An apparatus for wireless communication with a system of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- a first antenna configured to receive a signal from the system of the vehicle; and
a processor configured to;
determine whether the first antenna is saturated by an external magnetic field, andcause at least one of the first antenna or a second antenna to transmit a frame indicating that the first antenna is saturated by the external magnetic field in response to determining that the first antenna is saturated.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for wireless communication with a system of a vehicle are provided. One implementation includes an apparatus for wireless communication with a system of a vehicle. The apparatus comprises a first antenna configured to receive a signal from the system of the vehicle. The apparatus comprises a processor configured to determine whether the first antenna is saturated by an external magnetic field. The processor is further configured to cause the at least one of the first antenna or a second antenna to transmit a frame indicating that the first antenna is saturated by the external magnetic field in response to determining that the first antenna is saturated. The frame is a periodic frame. The processor is further configured to transmit an identification frame identifying the apparatus in response to receiving a trigger signal. A wireless power transmitter is configured to reduce or discontinue wireless power transmission in response to receiving the frame.
