Methods and apparatus for controlling touchscreen interference

A method for receiving charging power via a wireless charging field of a wireless charging device, the method comprising:

• detecting at least one signal from a touchscreen, the detected at least one signal indicating an interaction with the touchscreen;
• determining whether the detected at least one signal is a result of a false contact with the touchscreen resulting from the wireless charging field;
• and
• transmitting, based on determining that the detected at least one signal is a result of the false contact with the touchscreen, a first message to the wireless charging device to lower a strength of the wireless charging field.

A wireless power device for receiving charging power via a wireless charging field of a wireless charging device, the wireless power device comprising:

• means for detecting at least one signal from a touchscreen, the detected at least one signal indicating an interaction with the touchscreen;
• means for determining whether the detected at least one signal is a result of a false contact with the touchscreen resulting from the wireless charging field;
• and
• means for transmitting, based on determining that the detected at least one signal is a result of the false contact with the touchscreen, a first message to the wireless charging device to lower a strength of the wireless charging field.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform a method for receiving charging power via a wireless charging field of a wireless charging device, the method comprising:

• detecting at least one signal from a touchscreen, the detected at least one signal indicating an interaction with the touchscreen;
• determining whether the detected at least one signal is a result of a false contact with the touchscreen resulting from the wireless charging field;
• and
• transmitting, based on determining that the detected at least one signal is a result of the false contact with the touchscreen, a first message to the wireless charging device to lower a strength of the wireless charging field.
