Wireless power transmitter and receiver, and method for transmitting emergency information in a wireless charging network
First Claim
1. A control method of a wireless power receiver, the method comprising:
- transmitting an advertisement signal to search for a wireless power transmitter;
receiving, from the wireless power transmitter, a connection request signal to form a connection between the wireless power receiver and the wireless power transmitter, wherein the connection request signal corresponds to the advertisement signal;
receiving charging power from the wireless power transmitter;
detecting an error state in the wireless power receiver while receiving the charging power;
generating an alert signal indicating the error state; and
transmitting the alert signal to the wireless power transmitter,wherein the error state includes at least one of an over-voltage state in which a rectifier voltage of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference voltage, an over-current state in which a rectifier current of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference current, an over-temperature state in which a temperature of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference temperature, and a system error of the wireless power receiver, andwherein a switch to protect the wireless power receiver is turned off if the error state is the over-voltage state.

5. A wireless power receiver, comprising:
-
a switch; a communication unit configured to; transmit an advertisement signal to search for a wireless power transmitter, and receive, from the wireless power transmitter, a connection request signal to form a connection between the wireless power receiver and the wireless power transmitter, wherein the connection request signal corresponds to the advertisement signal; a power reception unit configured to receive charging power from the wireless power transmitter; and a controller configured to detect an error state in the wireless power receiver while receiving the charging power, and generate an alert signal indicating the error state; and wherein the communication unit is further configured to transmit the alert signal to the wireless power transmitter, wherein the error state includes at least one of an over-voltage state in which a rectifier voltage of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference voltage, an over-current state in which a rectifier current of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference current, an over-temperature state in which a temperature of the wireless power receiver is greater than a reference temperature, and a system error of the wireless power receiver, and wherein the controller is further configured to turn off the switch to protect the wireless power receiver if the error state is the over-voltage state. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
