## Abstract

Provided is a battery charging method using wireless power transmission, the method including: receiving a first message associated with a battery charge start from a reception apparatus; discovering an optimal frequency band for a transmit power signal to be transmitted to the reception apparatus based on the first message; receiving, from the reception apparatus, a second message that includes an extra power value and a charge power value, and is associated with a charge state of the reception apparatus; and adaptively controlling transmit power so that the extra power value is maintained to be constant in proportion to a relationship between the charge power value and a first parameter, based on the second message.

## Claims

receiving a first message associated with a battery charge start from a reception apparatus;
discovering an optimal frequency band for a transmit power signal to be transmitted to the reception apparatus based on the first message;
receiving, from the reception apparatus, a second message that comprises an extra power value and a charge power value, and is associated with a charge state of the reception apparatus; and
adaptively controlling transmit power so that the extra power value is maintained to be constant in proportion to a relationship between the charge power value and a first parameter, based on the second message.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein
the receiving of the second message comprises:
continuously receiving the second message based on predetermined interval information, and
the controlling comprises:
updating the charge power value and the extra power value from the second message; and
adaptively adjusting the transmit power so that the extra power value is maintained to be constant in proportion to the relationship between the charge power value and the first parameter, based on the updated charge power value and the extra power value.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein
the second message further comprises at least one of a set comprising a battery voltage value and a charge current value and a set comprising a battery current value and a charge voltage value, and a transmit power value, and
the controlling comprises:
setting an initial transmit power value based on at least one of the set comprising the battery voltage value and the charge current value and the set comprising the battery current value and the charge voltage value.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The method of claim 3, further comprising:
adaptively adjusting the transmit power value in response to a second parameter preset from an initial transmit power value adjusted.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the controlling comprises:
transmitting the transmit power controlled based on the second message.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the charge power is power that is input to a battery of the reception apparatus, excluding extra power of the reception apparatus from the transmit power.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the controlling comprises:
suspending transmission of the transmit power based on the second message.
