  • Patent number: 9276414
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for transmission and reception of signals. A signal is received that includes at least one of a power supply signal for wireless charging from a wireless power supplier and a power communication signal from at least one external wireless power receiver. The received signal is analyzed to determine whether the power communication signal is included with the power supply signal in the received signal. A transmission frequency of a transmission signal is determined based on whether the power communication signal is included with the power supply signal in the received signal. Transmission data for control of the wireless charging is modulated, and the modulated transmission data is output as the transmission signal over the transmission frequency.

  • Patent number: 8493455
    Abstract: A lens assembly alignment apparatus for a camera lens module is provided. The lens assembly alignment apparatus includes a position alignment apparatus that moves a lens assembly in a direction of an optical axis of the lens assembly and on a plane perpendicular to the optical axis. The apparatus also includes a slant alignment apparatus having first and second rotary axes which extend perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens assembly, respectively. The lens assembly is received in a housing, and the slant alignment apparatus aligns an optical axis of an image sensor, which is mounted in the housing, parallel to the optical axis of the lens assembly by rotating the housing about each of the first and second rotary axes.
