Abstract
This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for a wireless power transmission apparatus that supports charging of one or more wireless power receiving apparatuses. The wireless power transmission apparatus (such as a charging pad or surface) may include multiple primary coils and multiple local controllers (such as one local controller per primary coil). Each local controller can independently activate a primary coil to supply power to a wireless power receiving apparatus. Thus, the wireless power transmission apparatus may support concurrent charging of multiple wireless power receiving apparatuses. When a first primary coil is activated, a local controller can mute or disable the adjacent primary coils (near the first primary coil) to mitigate undesirable interference. In some implementations, the local controller may provide a status to other local controllers (associated with adjacent primary coils) to disable the adjacent primary coils.
