Estimating the term…
A system for inductive power transfer that may selectively transmit power in a plurality of modes based on characteristics of a power receiver and determine which transmitter coils to drive based on received signal strength information. The inductive power transfer transmitter may detect characteristics of the power receiver in order to control the mode of the power transfer and selectively control which transmitter coils are driven based on signal strength information received from a power receiver. The power transmitter may have slugs formed of a magnetically permeable material within common coil winding openings and the transmitter coils may consists of a plurality of parallel windings.
-106. (canceled)
A system for power transfer comprising a power transmitter and at least one power receiver, the power transmitter having one or more transmitter coils which can be selectively caused to transmit a power signal to the power receiver in one of a plurality of modes under control of a controller to a receiver coil of the at least one power receiver,
An inductive power transfer transmitter having one or more transmitter coils which can be selectively caused to transmit a power signal in a plurality of modes under control of a controller to a receiver coil of at least one power receiver, wherein the controller is configured to detect characteristics of the power receiver in order to control the mode of the power transfer,
An inductive power transfer receiver including:
