According to one embodiment, a wireless power transmitter wirelessly transmits power to a power receiving apparatus which includes a first resonance circuit and a load circuit. The first resonance circuit includes a power receiving coil and a first capacitor. The wireless power transmitter comprises a second resonance circuit that includes a power transmission coil and a second capacitor and transmits the signal generated by a power supply to the power receiving apparatus, a measuring unit that measures a signal reflection coefficient, and a controller. The controller detects a value of an oscillation frequency of the power supply making the signal reflection coefficient smaller than or equal to a threshold value, calculates an electromagnetic coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil and the power receiving coil, and controls one of the oscillation frequency and a capacitance value of the second capacitor based on the electromagnetic coupling coefficient.
