Wireless power transmitter, wireless power receiver, and method of operating the same

Abstract

According to embodiments, a wireless power transmitter may include: a communication module comprising communication circuitry; a power transmission circuit configured to transmit wireless power; and a processor. The processor may be configured to: establish a communication connection with a wireless power receiver using the communication module, control the communication module to transmit information about a first period to the wireless power receiver via the communication connection, control the power transmission circuit to transmit first power of a first frequency and a first magnitude to an outside, control the communication module to receive information about a second frequency of second power received at the wireless power receiver from the wireless power receiver via the communication connection, control the communication module to release the communication connection, based on the first frequency being different from the second frequency, and control the power transmission circuit to transmit third power of a magnitude different from the first magnitude of the first power to the outside during the first period, based on the first frequency corresponding to or substantially identical to the second frequency.
