The control method includes receiving the charging power from the wireless power transmitting unit; detecting a change in a wireless charging environment; generating a signal indicating detection of the change in the wireless charging environment; and transmitting the signal indicating the detection of the change in the wireless charging environment to the wireless power transmitting unit.
Abstract:
Encoding and decoding methods are provided. An information object is encoded according to a preset encoding scheme. A preset set of bits is selected from the encoded information object and the selected set of bits is output as a sample. A control packet including information on a sample number is generated. The sample is assembled with the control packet. The sample is modulated into a sound signal according to a preset scheme. An input sound signal is demodulated according to the preset scheme. Sample bits and control packet bits containing information of the sample are separated from each other in demodulated received bits. Address information corresponding to each bit of the sample is generated according to the control packet. A soft decision of the sample bits is summed for each piece of the generated address information. A sample decoding of the summed soft decision of the sample bits is performed.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for encoding an information object. The method includes storing the information object in a buffer; generating a sampling set including bits selected from the buffer according to a predetermined rule and bits randomly selected from the buffer; generating control channel data including information on the sampling set; and modulating the sampling set and the control channel data.
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 method and apparatus are provided for controlling power transmission in a power transmitter. The method includes receiving power information that includes a minimum voltage and a maximum voltage receivable at a power receiver; determining a reference voltage for dividing a range between the minimum voltage and the maximum voltage into a predetermined portions; dividing the range between the minimum voltage and the maximum voltage into a first voltage range between the minimum voltage and the reference voltage and a second voltage range between the reference voltage and the maximum voltage; receiving from the power receiver a report about a power reception condition including a measured voltage at the power receiver during the power transmission from the power transmitter; and adjusting and supplying the power according to which voltage range the measured voltage belongs to among the divided voltage ranges.
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.
