Abstract: Example embodiments are disclosed for limiting radio frequency noise created during wireless charging of rechargeable batteries in radio frequency communication devices. In an example embodiment, a power source circuit in a wireless charging device produces a source alternating current. The source alternating current is passed through a radio frequency blocking filter to limit radio frequency noise. The filtered source alternating current is then driven through a transmitting coil in the charging device, which inductively couples with a proximately located receiving coil in a radio frequency communication device. An induced alternating current is passed through a second radio frequency blocking filter in the communication device, which limits radio frequency noise that could otherwise be created by the rectifier and control circuits in the communication device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are disclosed for generating a first alternating current in a resonant receiving coil at a resonant frequency in a self-resonant circuit tuned to resonate at substantially the same resonant frequency as a resonant transmitting coil in a self-resonant circuit of a wireless charger, the resonant receiving coil operating as a magnetically coupled resonator with the resonant transmitting coil. The separation distance between the two coils may be several times larger than geometric sizes of the coils. The embodiments convert the first alternating current in a power control circuit to a second alternating current at a different frequency than the resonant frequency. The embodiments drive a the power transmitting coil using the second alternating current to inductively couple with a proximately located power receiving coil in a user's device, to provide power to the power receiving coil in the user's device by contact-less electromagnetic induction.

Abstract: Example embodiments are disclosed for detecting the proximity of a user to a wireless charger and switching off or gradually reducing the power applied to the transmitting coils as long as the user is closer than a threshold distance. In embodiments, a power source circuit in a wireless charging device is configured to produce a source alternating current. A transmitting coil is configured to magnetically couple with a proximately located receiving coil in a user's device, using contact-less electromagnetic induction, to wirelessly provide power to the receiving coil. A power control circuit is coupled between the power source and the transmitting coil, having a control input configured to control power delivered from the power source to the transmitting coil.
