Establishing data communication connection using wireless power transmission

摘要

A power transmitter according to an embodiment disclosed herein can include a power conversion unit configured to form a wireless power signal using power supplied from a power supply unit and receive a modulated wireless power signal containing a packet; a communication unit configured to transmit and receive user data via connection to a power receiver; and a control unit configured to detect the power receiver using the wireless power signal, decode a connection configuration packet transmitted from the power receiver based on the modulated wireless power signal, and establish the connection to the power receiver based on access information included in the connection configuration packet.

主权项

1. A power transmitter, comprising:
a power transmission unit including a transmission coil; a communication unit including an antenna; and a control processor configured to: transmit a wireless power signal including access information along a first communication channel using the transmission coil, detect a power receiver using the transmitted wireless power signal, receive a modulated connection configuration packet included in a modulated wireless power signal received from the power receiver along the first communication channel, decode the modulated connection configuration packet, wherein the modulated connection configuration packet includes access information, and establish a second communication channel based on the access information so the control processor transceives data between the power transmitter and the power receiver through the second communication channel.
