Abstract
In a method and system for wireless power supply, the misalignment between the power transmission antenna and the power reception antenna is detected based on the electric power of an electromagnetic wave radiated from the position-detection power transmission antennas of the power transmission antenna, reflected by a reflector provided outside the power reception surface of the power reception antenna, and detected by the position-detection power reception antennas of the power transmission antenna.
