FEEDING APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

Feeding apparatus (2) comprises: a plurality of control lines (32, 32) that can be connected to respective different vehicles (1, 1); branch lines that branch from the respective ones of the plurality of control lines (32, 32); a communication unit (22) that transmits/receives communication signals for which the other end of communication has been designated; and a superimposing/separating unit (23) that superimposes/separates the communication signals, which are transmitted/received by the communication unit (22), on/from the control lines (32, 32) connected to the superimposing/separating unit (23) via the respective branch lines. The superimposing/separating unit (23) has a plurality of primary coils (231a, 231b) connected to the respective ones of the plurality of branch lines and also has a secondary coil (232) that is electromagnetically coupled with the plurality of primary coils (231a, 231b) and connected to the communication unit (22).
