Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method for wirelessly transmitting power. According to one general aspect, a communication device using wireless power may include: a transmitter configured to transmit, to a target resonator, energy stored in a source resonator through mutual resonance; an energy compensator configured to compensate for energy expended in the source resonator; and a controller configured to control an electrical connection providing energy to the source resonator.

A communication device using wireless power, the communication device comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit, to a source resonator, energy stored in a target resonator through mutual resonance;
- an energy compensator configured to compensate for energy expended in the target resonator;
- and
- a controller configured to control an electrical connection between the target resonator and a load provided with energy from the target resonator,
- wherein the controller comprises a circuit configured to capture the energy stored in the target resonator when the energy stored in the target resonator is maximal, in response to detecting that a magnitude of energy received in the target resonator peaks within a predetermined period.
