Abstract

A wireless power transmission apparatus includes a power transmission coil that transmits electric power; a power transmission-side resonant capacitor that is connected to the power transmission coil and that, with the power transmission coil, forms a power transmission-side resonance circuit; and a self-oscillation circuit that converts a DC voltage to an AC voltage, and that supplies the AC voltage to the power transmission coil. The wireless power transmission apparatus has a state, during power transmission, in which multiple resonance points exist in a combined resonance circuit formed by magnetic coupling of the power transmission-side resonance circuit with a power reception-side resonance circuit formed from a power reception coil and a power reception-side resonant capacitor. In the state, the self-oscillation circuit operates at the highest frequency among the multiple resonance points.
