A power transmitting apparatus supporting a plurality of wireless power transmission methods, acquires information about at least one wireless power transmission method supported by a power receiving apparatus from the power receiving apparatus, decides, based on the acquired information, a wireless power transmission method to be used for power transmission to the power receiving apparatus, and transmits power to the power receiving apparatus by the decided wireless power transmission method.

Power transmitting apparatus, power receiving apparatus, control methods therefor, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

A power transmitting apparatus transmits power by a first wireless power transmission method, transmits power by a second wireless power transmission method, detects a wireless power transmission method supported by a power receiving apparatus, and determines whether power is transmitted to a first power receiving apparatus by the first power transmission method or the second power transmission method, based on a detected wireless power transmission method supported by the first power receiving apparatus and a detected wireless power transmission method supported by a second power receiving apparatus.

Power transmitting apparatus, power receiving apparatus, control methods therefor, program, and computer-readable storage medium

A power transmitting apparatus, which has a capability of wirelessly transmitting power to a power receiving apparatus, obtains time information indicating a time for starting of the power transmission to the power receiving apparatus and controls a timing of power transmission based on the time information.

Power transmitting apparatus, control method, and storage medium

The present invention provides a technique to control a distribution of electric power depending on electric power consumption of each of a plurality of electric power receiving apparatuses. An electric power supply apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information associated with electric power consumption of each of the plurality of electric power receiving apparatuses, a determination unit configured to determine the distribution of electric power to the plurality of electric power receiving apparatuses based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit such that a greater amount of distribution of electric power is assigned to an electric power receiving apparatus having greater electric power consumption, and an electric power supply unit configured to supply electric power to each of the plurality of electric power receiving apparatuses according to the distribution of electric power determined by the determination unit.

A radio network transmits network information to a radio terminal when the position of the radio terminal is registered. If the network information has changed when the radio terminal places an outgoing call or receives an incoming call, the radio network transmits network information after the change. The network information includes information identifying a network used to make a connection to another network, and information relating to communication charges. The radio terminal calculates communication charges using the network information.

Communication apparatus

The identification information of a base station used to identify this station is stored in relation to position information. If received identification information is stored when an image is photographed, position information corresponding to the stored identification information is added to the image data.
