Title:
WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION APPARATUS CAPABLE OF MATCHING IMPEDANCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/115419
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A wireless power transmission apparatus is provided. The wireless power transmission apparatus comprises: a wireless power transmission antenna for wirelessly transmitting power; a sensor unit for sensing voltages and current of the wireless power transmission antenna; a variable capacitor unit including a plurality of capacitors which are connected in series and in parallel to the wireless power transmission antenna, and a plurality of switches for switching the connection of the plurality of capacitors; and a control unit for calculating impedance using the voltages and current sensed through the sensor unit, and adjusting the capacitance of the variable capacitor unit according to the calculated impedance. Accordingly, the wireless power transmission apparatus can enhance wireless power efficiency by adjusting capacitance according to a change in impedance, which is due to a change in the distance from a receiver, and matching the impendence.
