    Abstract: Embodiments related to systems, methods, and computer-readable media to enable a power transmit unit (PTU) device are described. In one embodiment a PTU comprises a transmit coil configured for wireless charging via magnetic coupling, a power delivery system coupled to the transmit coil, signal processing circuitry to detect harmonic distortion that is induced in the transmit coil by a device inside the near field of the transmit coil, and control circuitry configured to adjust an output power of the power amplifier when triggered by a detection of an Near Field Communications (NFC) device, a Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID), or any other such device which may be damaged by the energy emitted from the transmit coil.
