Abstract
A wireless power transmitter for transmitting a power signal to a wireless power receiver is disclosed. The transmitter includes a transmission antenna, an inverter circuit including a plurality of switches; and a control circuit configured to demodulate a control signal received by the transmission antenna from the transmitter and control the inverter circuit based on power control data included in the control signal. The control circuit is configured to select among a first, second and third mode. For example, in the first mode in which a first pair including first and second switches and a second pair including third and fourth switches are both complementarily switched at a duty ratio of 50%, and a phase difference of the first pair and the second pair is changed between a minimum value and a maximum value depending on a transmission power, and the inverter circuit performs a full-bridge operation.
