Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided for providing additional information service in a mobile communication terminal. A microphone receives a sound signal including an audible frequency band and an inaudible frequency band. Additional information related to the service is detected in the inaudible frequency band included in the sound signal. The detected additional information is extracted from the sound signal. Data for providing the service is acquired based on the extracted additional information. A service screen is displayed based on the acquired data.
Abstract:
A control method of a wireless power transmitting unit transmitting charging power to a wireless power receiving unit is provided. The control method includes receiving first signals from one or more wireless power receiving units; classifying wireless power receiving units to be communicated with from among the one or more wireless power receiving units based on reception intensities of the received first signals; transmitting wireless transmission power with predetermined level; receiving second signals including voltage information of the classified wireless power receiving units from the classified wireless power receiving units; and communicating with one or more wireless power receiving unit among the classified wireless power receiving units based on the wireless transmission power and the voltage information of the second signals.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting charging power to a wireless power receiver. The method includes detecting the wireless power receiver by applying different detection powers with different power levels; applying a driving power to drive the detected wireless power receiver; receiving a request signal for communication from the detected wireless power receiver using the driving power; determining whether or not to subscribe the detected wireless power receiver to a wireless power network; transmitting, to the detected wireless power receiver, a response signal to the request signal for communication, the response signal indicating whether or not the detected wireless power receiver is subscribed to the wireless power network; and transmitting charging power to the detected wireless power receiver, when the detected wireless power receiver is subscribed to the wireless power network.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for recognizing characters using an image are provided. A camera is activated according to a character recognition request and a preview mode is set for displaying an image photographed through the camera in real time. An auto focus of the camera is controlled and an image having a predetermined level of clarity is obtained for character recognition from the images obtained in the preview mode. The image for character recognition is character-recognition-processed so as to extract recognition result data. A final recognition character row is drawn that excludes non-character data from the recognition result data. A first word is combined including at least one character of the final recognition character row and a predetermined maximum number of characters. A dictionary database that stores dictionary information on various languages using the first word is searched, so as to provide the user with the corresponding word.
Abstract:
A wireless power transmitter configured to transmit power to a wireless power receiver and a method for controlling the wireless power transmitted 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 control method of a wireless power transmitter for transmitting charging power to a wireless power receiver is provided. The control method includes receiving setting information from the wireless power receiver, determining a load variation of the wireless power receiver for a set time period, and determining that the wireless power receiver is a charging target, if the load variation of the wireless power matches the received setting information.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for securing wireless communication using an acoustic signal are described. In one method involving a first and second device, the second device generates, when connecting to the first device, connection initiation information including key information for secure communication, converts the connection initiation information to an acoustic signal, and transmits the acoustic signal to the first device through an acoustic communication channel. Then the second device monitors a radio wireless channel, which is secured using the key information for secure communication, to determine whether a valid response is received from the first device and, upon receipt of the valid response, discontinues transmission of the acoustic signal and begins communicating with the first device securely on the radio wireless channel.
Abstract:
A control method for performing wireless charging in a wireless power receiver is disclosed. The control method includes receiving charging power from a wireless power transmitter; detecting transition of the wireless power receiver from a Stand Alone (SA) mode to a Non Stand Alone (NSA) mode; upon detecting the mode transition, generating a message including address information used to re-connect with the wireless power transmitter; and transmitting the message to the wireless power transmitter.
Abstract:
A control method for transmitting charging power to a wireless power receiver in a wireless power transmitter is provided. The control method includes receiving a Power Transmission Unit (PTU) searching signal for searching for a wireless power transmitter, from the wireless power receiver; obtaining information about an identifier of a signal in a communication scheme used by the wireless power receiver; and exchanging signals with the wireless power receiver based on the information about the identifier of the signal in the communication scheme used by the wireless power receiver.
