Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for controlling a wireless power transmitter. First power for charging a first wireless power receiver is transmitted. Demand power information of a second wireless power receiver is received. The demand power information includes a maximum power for the second wireless power receiver. A controller identifies whether the wireless power transmitter is capable of providing the maximum power. A power adjustment command is transmitted to the second wireless power receiver, if the wireless power transmitter is not capable of providing the maximum power. The power adjustment command requests to reduce a magnitude of power to be received by the second wireless power receiver to a level within a range that the wireless power transmitter is capable of supporting. Second power for charging the first wireless power receiver and the second wireless power receiver is transmitted based on at least the reduced magnitude of power.
Abstract:
A wireless power transmitter configured to transmit a wireless power to a wireless power receiver and a method for controlling the wireless power transmitted from the wireless power transmitter are provided. The method includes applying a detection power for detecting a change in a load impedance of the wireless power transmitter caused by a placement of the wireless power receiver, detecting the change in the load impedance of the wireless power transmitter, receiving a first signal from the wireless power receiver, determining whether a reception intensity of the first signal is greater than a threshold, and transmitting a second signal to the wireless power receiver based on detecting the change in the load impedance and determining whether the reception intensity of the first signal is greater than the threshold.
Abstract:
A method for acquiring a service category table required for finding a service includes acquiring information on a latest service category table by identifying version information of a service category table from a broadcasting signal received from adjacent devices during a process of searching for a device supporting a service desired among devices, and acquiring a service category table of a latest version by establishing a session connection with a device supporting the service category table of the latest version based on the information. By acquiring the information on the latest service category table, a session connection with only the device providing the desired service is established so that an optimized session connection establishing process can be performed and a total network capacity can be efficiently managed. Also, the latest service category table can be acquired from the session-connected device, and thus a new service can be easily identified.
