The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, machine type communication (MTC), machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, and technology for internet of things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method for transmitting power transmitting unit (PTU) presence information is provided. The method includes receiving an advertisement message from a power receiving unit (PRU); determining whether a current state is a state that power is supplied to a resonator; and outputting PTU presence information indicating that a PTU exists, or transmitting the PTU presence information to a management server, if the current state is the state that the power is not supplied to the resonator.
