a power reception-side communication section configured to wirelessly communicate with the wireless power transmitter; a storage section to which data received by the power reception-side communication section is written by using the electrical power received by the power transmitter; and a monitoring section configured to monitor the electrical power or a voltage that corresponds to the electrical power supplied to the storage section in a case in which the data is being written to the storage section, the monitoring section transmits write information, which indicates whether or not the data was correctly written to the storage section based on a monitoring result, from the power reception-side communication section to the wireless power transmitter information. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A wireless power receiver comprising: a power receiver configured to receive electrical power that is wirelessly transmitted from a wireless power transmitter; a power reception-side communication section configured to wirelessly communicate with the wireless power transmitter; a storage section to which data received by the power reception-side communication section is written by using the electrical power received by the power transmitter; and a monitoring section configured to monitor the electrical power or a voltage that corresponds to the electrical power supplied to the storage section in a case in which the data is being written to the storage section, the monitoring section transmits write information, which indicates whether or not the data was correctly written to the storage section based on a monitoring result, from the power reception-side communication section to the wireless power transmitter information. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The wireless power receiver of claim 1, wherein the monitoring section stores in the storage section, a combination of information indicating whether or not data was correctly written to the storage section and predetermined information, as the write information, and the monitoring section transmits from the power reception-side communication section to the wireless power transmitter the write information read from the storage section. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The wireless power receiver of claim 1, wherein the monitoring section determines that the data was correctly written to the storage section in a case in which electrical power supplied to the storage section is equal to or greater than a predetermined electrical power, or in cases in which a voltage that corresponds to the electrical power supplied to the storage section is equal to or greater than a predetermined voltage. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The wireless power receiver of claim 1, wherein the monitoring section includes a comparator that outputs a comparison result of comparing a voltage according to electrical power supplied to the storage section with a predetermined voltage. ### Claim 5 A wireless power supply system comprising a wireless power transmitter and a wireless power receiver, wherein: the wireless power receiver includes a power receiver configured to receive electrical power that is wirelessly transmitted from a wireless power transmitter, a power reception-side communication section configured to wirelessly communicate with the wireless power transmitter, a storage section to which data received by the power reception-side communication section is written by using the electrical power received by the power transmitter, and a monitoring section configured to monitor the electrical power or a voltage that corresponds to the electrical power supplied to the storage section in a case in which the data is being written to the storage section, to store, in the storage section, a combination of a monitoring result and predetermined information, as monitoring information, and to transmit the monitoring information that has been read from the storage section to the wireless power transmitter from the power reception-side communication section; and the wireless power transmitter includes a power transmission section configured to wirelessly transmit electrical power to the wireless power receiver, a transmission-side communication section configured to wirelessly perform communication with the wireless power receiver, and a controller configured to control transmission of the data from the transmission-side communication section, and to determine whether or not the data is correctly written to the storage section based on the monitoring result obtained from the monitoring information received by the transmission-side communication section. ### Claim 6 A wireless power reception method comprising: wirelessly receiving electrical power transmitted from a wireless power transmitter; performing wireless communication with the wireless power transmitter; writing received data to a storage section using the received electrical power; monitoring electrical power or a voltage that corresponds to the electrical power supplied to the storage section in a case in which the received data is being written to the storage section; and transmitting a monitoring result to the wireless power transmitter.
