Abstract
A wireless power receiver may include a receive coil configured to generate an AC power signal, at least one secondary sensing coil configured to generate a measurement signal responsive to a magnetic flux field, and control logic configured to detect at least one condition of a wireless power transfer system responsive to detecting distortion in the magnetic flux field from the at least one measurement signal received from the secondary sensing coil. A related method may include receiving with a wireless power receiver a wireless power signal for wireless power transfer from a wireless power transmitter, generating with a plurality of secondary sensing coils one or more measurement signals responsive to a magnetic flux field generated during the wireless power transfer, and detecting at least one condition of a wireless power transfer system responsive to the one or more measurement signals generated by the plurality of secondary sensing coils.
