Portable terminal having a wireless charger coil and an antenna element on the same plane

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a battery; a non-contact near field communication antenna; a wireless charging coil; and a case covering the battery, wherein the wireless charging coil is positioned between the battery and the case, and wherein one of the non-contact near field communication antenna and the wireless charging coil is positioned to surround the other one of the non-contact near field communication antenna and the wireless charging coil.

A wireless power receiver that receives wireless power from a wireless power transmitter and a control method thereof are provided, wherein the wireless power receiver receives the wireless power from the wireless power transmitter; rectifies the wireless power; monitoring a voltage value of the rectified wireless power; determines whether a ripple of the voltage value of the wireless power is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; and if the ripple of the voltage value of the wireless power is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, changes at least one element value of the wireless power receiver to suppress the ripple below the preset threshold.

Wireless power receiver and method for controlling the same

Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for charging power using a resonant coupling. The apparatus includes a transmission power converter for converting Direct Current (DC) power to Alternating Current (AC) power, a controller for adjusting a Q factor of a transmission resonator by using a frequency of the converted AC power and a resonant frequency of the transmission resonator and controlling adaptive impedance matching, and a transmission resonator for wirelessly transmitting the converted AC power to a receiver through the adjusted Q factor and the controlled adaptive impedance matching, the transmission resonator having a coil installed in the transmitter.

Apparatus and method for transmitting wireless power by using resonant coupling and system for the same

In an apparatus for adjusting charging power of a wireless power receiver, when one or more wireless power receivers require charging, it is determined whether the sum of required charging powers required by the one or more wireless power receivers exceeds maximum supplied power provided by a wireless power transmitter. When a result indicates that the sum exceeds the maximum supplied power, a control operation is performed to adjust the required charging power of each wireless power receiver. Therefore, it is possible to wirelessly charge each wireless power receiver without interruption.

Apparatus and method for controlling charging power of wireless power receiver

Methods and apparatus are provided for transmission and reception of signals. A signal is received that includes at least one of a power supply signal for wireless charging from a wireless power supplier and a power communication signal from at least one external wireless power receiver. The received signal is analyzed to determine whether the power communication signal is included with the power supply signal in the received signal. A transmission frequency of a transmission signal is determined based on whether the power communication signal is included with the power supply signal in the received signal. Transmission data for control of the wireless charging is modulated, and the modulated transmission data is output as the transmission signal over the transmission frequency.
