  • Methods and systems for wireless power transfer
    Patent number: 12176728
    Abstract: Systems for wireless power transfer (WPT) include one or more WPT transmission devices and one or more WPT receiver devices to wirelessly receive power transmitted by the one or more WPT transmission devices. The WPT receiver devices are arranged at a fixed position relative to each of the WPT transmission devices. A WPT transmit controller of the systems is coupled to the one or more WPT transmission devices to control WPT transmission properties of the one or more WPT transmission devices in order to harmonize and adapt the transmit power level at the fixed position of the one or more WPT receiver devices.
