Abstract: The present relates to a wireless power transmitter performing communication with a wireless power receiver, and a wireless power transfer method thereof. The wireless power transmitter includes a power conversion unit configured to transmit a wireless power signal transferred in a form of an energy field, such as an electric field, a magnetic field or an electromagnetic field, and a power transmission control unit configured to transfer power to the wireless power receiver using the wireless power signal, wherein the power transmission control unit is configured to control the power conversion unit to transmit a near-field communication (NFC) detection signal, other than the wireless power signal, when a preset condition is satisfied, and wherein the power transmission control unit controls the wireless conversion unit in a different manner according to whether or not a response signal to the NFC detection signal is detected.
