Abstract: A first method (100) of providing a secondary reference for subsequent use in evaluating a power measuring accuracy of a wireless power measurement device (60) under test is presented. An inanimate calibration object (50) is subjected (110) to electromagnetic field variations (38) by controlling operating points of a reference wireless power transmitter device (30). Key power absorption parameters (58) of the calibration object (50) resulting from the electromagnetic field variations (38) are generated (120) and stored (130) together with data (57) that defines the operating points in a data storage (52) being associated (54) with the calibration object (50).

Abstract: A method of controlling and/or evaluating the temperature of a wireless power coil (105; 205; 305) in coil unit (100; 200; 300) is provided. The method comprises providing a coil unit (100; 200; 300) comprising a wireless power coil (105; 205; 305) comprising at least two strands (112, 114; 212, 214; 312, 314), wherein at least one strand (114; 214; 314) is used for heating and at least one strand (112; 212; 312) is used for wireless power transfer, and applying a current to the least one strand (114; 214; 314) used for heating. The coil unit (100; 200; 300) is in operative communication with a processing means (18, 28, 90) configured to provide a current to the at least one strand (114; 214; 314) used for heating.

Abstract: A system (100) for testing of wireless power equipment in the form of a wireless power transmitter device and a wireless power receiver device is disclosed. The system (100) has a probe device (110) and an analyzer device (130). The probe device (110) has at least one pickup coil (112), the pickup coil being adapted to be placed between a surface of a housing of the wireless power transmitter device and a surface of a housing of the wireless power receiver device to generate electric signals by capturing electromagnetic signals exchanged between the wireless power transmitter and receiver devices pursuant to a wireless power transfer protocol. The probe device (110) also has an interface (114) for providing the electric signals generated by the pickup coil (112) to the analyzer device (130). The analyzer device (130) has an interface (132) for receiving the electric signals from the probe device (110).
