A power transmission apparatus that supplies power in a non-contact manner to a plurality of power reception apparatuses, acquires movement information regarding the power reception apparatuses, and controls, in accordance with the movement information, power transmission processing and adjustment processing for adjusting a direction in which the power is transmitted. The power transmission apparatus performs control such that, in a case of transmitting power to a moving power reception apparatus, the adjustment processing is performed before the power transmission processing is performed, and in a case of transmitting power to a stationary power reception apparatus, the adjustment processing is performed before the power transmission processing is performed, and thereafter the power transmission processing is performed without performing the adjustment processing until the stationary power reception apparatus changes to a moving state.
A power transmission apparatus comprising:
A control method of a power transmission apparatus which has a plurality of antennas, a reception unit configured to receive a signal from a power reception apparatus, and a control unit configured to control output from the antennas such that power is wirelessly supplied to the power reception apparatus from the antennas, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method of a power transmission apparatus which has a plurality of antennas, a reception unit configured to receive a signal from a power reception apparatus, and a control unit configured to control output from the antennas such that power is wirelessly supplied to the power reception apparatus from the antennas, the method comprising:
