Abstract

Aspects of the present invention relates to providing devices, a system and method for controlling wireless power transfer across an inductive power coupling. The system, particularly, relates to enabling selection of a wireless power outlet of a multi-outlet power transmission surface closest to the location of a power receiver connected to an electric load and placed upon the surface. Accordingly, the multi-outlet power transmission surface comprising two sub-systems, a power transmission system and a signal transfer system, each operable independently and continuously. Further, the signal transfer system controls the activation of wireless power, configured to analyze the signal-quality of each detected communication signal received from a power receiver and thereby to identify the wireless power outlet closest to the location of the power receiver.
