SHIELD FOR A WIRELESS POWER TRANSMITTER
First Claim
1. A power transmitting unit, comprising:
- a transmit coil configured to generate a magnetic field to wirelessly power a device within an active wireless charging area;
a power generating circuitry to deliver current to the transmit coil to generate the magnetic field at an operating frequency; and
a patch array disposed in parallel with the transmit coil to reduce a strength of the magnetic field at frequencies outside of the operating frequency during operation of the power transmitting unit.

Abstract
Techniques for focusing the energy radiated by a wireless power transmitting unit are described. An example power transmitting unit includes a transmit coil configured to generate a magnetic field to wirelessly power a device within an active wireless charging area. The power transmitting unit also includes a power generating circuitry to deliver current to the transmit coil to generate the magnetic field. The power transmitting unit also includes a patch array disposed in parallel with the transmit coil to reduce the strength of the magnetic field at frequencies outside of the operating frequency during operation of the power transmitting unit.
