Abstract
A method and system for establishing a communication link in a wireless power system from a wireless power transmitter (WPT) to a wireless power receiver (WPR) is provided. A flux modulator is operably disposed in the WPT for dynamically changing the WPT's impedance so as to modulate a magnetic field produced on the transmitter coil when a primary voltage applied to the WPT. A flux demodulator is operably disposed in the WPR for receiving and demodulating a secondary voltage induced on a receiver coil due to the modulated magnetic field on the transmitter coil. The induction of the secondary voltage on the receiver coil due to the modulated magnetic field on the transmitter coil establishes the communication link from the WPT to the WPR. The flux demodulator is configured as an analog signal processing chain or a digital signal processing block for decoding information obtained from the WPT.
