Bidirectional wireless power transmission

摘要

Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless power transfer. A wireless power transceiver and device comprise an antenna including a parallel resonator configured to resonate in response to a substantially unmodulated carrier frequency. The wireless power transceiver further comprises a bidirectional power conversion circuit coupled to the parallel resonator. The bidirectional power conversion circuit is reconfigurable to rectify an induced current received at the antenna into DC power and to induce resonance at the antenna in response to DC power.
