Abstract: A power transmitter includes: a first coil that wirelessly transmits the electric power to a second coil of a power receiver; a converter including a DC/AC converter that converts DC electric power into AC electric power and supplies the AC electric power to the first coil; and a controller that brings a power value of the DC electric power or the AC electric power close to a power command value by frequency control of changing a frequency of the AC electric power. The controller performs, when the frequency at which the power value reaches the power command value is included in a used frequency band used by another device, frequency change process of changing the frequency so that the frequency becomes a frequency different from the used frequency band while performing constant power control of maintaining a state in which the power value matches the power command value.

Abstract: In a detection method of a loading anomaly, relationship between a steering control value of a vehicle and a proper turning radius for the steering control value is constructed as a control map. An actual turning radius of the vehicle is calculated by using a self-location detection function of the vehicle. A difference between the proper turning radius and the actual turning radius is calculated by using the control map. It is determined that a loading anomaly of a cargo loaded on the vehicle has occurred when the difference lies outside a predetermined first reference range.
