Abstract: A system for inductive power transfer that may selectively transmit power in a plurality of modes based on characteristics of a power receiver and determine which transmitter coils to drive based on received signal strength information. The inductive power transfer transmitter may detect characteristics of the power receiver in order to control the mode of the power transfer and selectively control which transmitter coils are driven based on signal strength information received from a power receiver. The power transmitter may have slugs formed of a magnetically permeable material within common coil winding openings and the transmitter coils may consists of a plurality of parallel windings.

Abstract: A method for determining the presence of a foreign object in an inductive power transfer field in which control circuitry of an inductive power system performs the steps of: providing power to a direct current to alternating current converter; providing power from the converter to a transmitter coil in the inductive power transfer field; waiting for the current in the transmitter coil to stabilize; estimating the reactive power in the transmitter coil; estimating the real power in the transmitter coil; and using the estimated reactive power and estimated real power to determine whether a foreign object is present.
