    摘要: Foreign substance detection can be performed with a simple configuration in a power transmission system. A power transmitting apparatus that wirelessly transmits power to a power receiving apparatus, the power transmitting apparatus comprises: determination means for, in a case where an initial impedance value and the detected output impedance value do not match and there is no change in the output impedance value between before and after the transmission of a predetermined detection signal, determining that a foreign substance is present within a predetermined power transmission range, and, in a case where the initial impedance value and the detected output impedance value do not match and there is a change in the output impedance value between before and after the transmission of the predetermined detection signal, determining that a power receiving apparatus is present within the predetermined power transmission range.

    摘要: A power receiving apparatus that wirelessly receives power from a power transmitting apparatus comprises a first communication unit communicating with the power transmitting apparatus, a second control unit executing detection of another apparatus capable of performing short-range wireless communication and a first control unit controlling whether to execute the detection by the second control unit. The first control unit, in a case where it is determined that the power transmitting apparatus does not have the detection function, controls to execute the detection by the second control unit when a detection status of another apparatus by the second control unit is undetermined, and not to execute the detection by the second control unit when the detection status is determined. The first communication unit transmits, to the power transmitting apparatus, a signal corresponding to a result of the detection by the second control unit.
