Wireless power transmission apparatus and method therefor
First Claim
1. A wireless power transmitting apparatus comprising:
- a power transmitting module transmitting wireless power by using a magnetic field of a frequency band from among a plurality of predetermined frequency bands;
a communication module performing communication with a wireless power receiving apparatus; and
a controller receiving a plurality of device profiles reflecting a frequency band used by a plurality of wireless power receiving apparatuses for transceiving the wireless power from the plurality of wireless power receiving apparatuses respectively, and configuring a power transmission mode based on the plurality of device profiles,wherein the power transmission mode includes a simultaneous mode of simultaneously transmitting the wireless power to the plurality of wireless power receiving apparatuses, a time division mode of transmitting the wireless power to the plurality of wireless power receiving apparatuses in a time division scheme, and a time division simultaneous mode of transmitting the wireless power to the plurality of wireless power receiving apparatuses simultaneously during a time-divided interval in a time division scheme.

9. A wireless power transmitting apparatus comprising:
-
a power transmitting module transmitting wireless power by using a first magnetic field of a first frequency band or a second magnetic field of a second frequency band different from the first frequency band; a communication module performing communication with a wireless power receiving apparatus; and a controller sensing the winless power receiving apparatus positioned in a wireless power transmission range, dividing a power transmission interval into a first time slot and a second time slot when at least one first wireless power receiving apparatus using the first magnetic field and at least one second wireless power receiving apparatus using the second magnetic field are positioned within the wireless power transmission range, supplying power to the at least one first wireless power receiving apparatus by transmitting the first magnetic field through the power transmitting module during the first time slot, and supplying power to the at least one second wireless power receiving apparatus by transmitting the second magnetic field through the power transmitting module during the second time slot, wherein the controller transmits a first message indicating allocation of the first time slot to the first wireless power receiving apparatus through the communication module and a second message indicating allocation of the second time slot to the second wireless power receiving apparatus through the communication module, wherein the communication module includes a first communication module and a second communication module different from the first communication module in a frequency band or a communication carrier, and wherein the controller transmits the first message through the first communication module and the second message through the second communication module. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
