Abstract

Method for transmitting charging signals via a data transmission path using resonance phenomena The invention provides a method for transmitting charging signals, in which an electrical resonance effect is provided, with an output current ( 100 ) being emitted from a line current driver device ( 202 ), which output current ( 100 ) is passed through a data path filter block ( 201 ), which has a data transmission path unit ( 122 ) and a matching filter unit ( 123 ), to a line impedance ( 102 ), and the matching filter unit ( 123 ) and the data transmission path unit ( 122 ) are set such that an electrical resonance effect occurs, which leads to a voltage peak occurring in a line voltage level ( 101 ).

Claims (13)

1. A method for transmitting charging signals, in which an electrical resonance effect is provided, the method comprising:

a) emitting an output current from a line current driver device;

b) passing the output current through a data path filter block, which has a data transmission path unit and a matching filter unit, to a line impedance; and

c) setting the matching filter unit and the data transmission path unit such that a series tuned circuit is formed and an electrical resonance effect occurs, which leads to a voltage peak being produced in a line voltage level, wherein a circuit in the line current driver device is provided such that circuit components of the data transmission path unit and of the matching filter unit form a parallel tuned circuit.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the resonance effect occurs at at least one frequency at which the charging signals are transmitted.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , comprising providing a circuit in the line current driver device such that circuit components of the data transmission path unit and of the matching filter unit form a series tuned circuit.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the resonance effect results in voltage matching.

5. An apparatus for transmitting charging signals, with an electrical resonance effect occurring, the apparatus comprising:

a) a line current driver device for emission of an output current; and

b) a data path filter block through which the output current is passed to a line impedance, and which comprises a data transmission path unit and a matching filter unit, wherein the matching filter unit and the data transmission path unit form a series tuned circuit and are set such that an electrical resonance effect occurs, which leads to a voltage peak being produced in a line voltage level, wherein circuit components of the data transmission path unit and of the matching filter unit form a parallel tuned circuit.

6. The apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the matching filter unit has at least one high inductance.

7. The apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a feedback resistance element and/or a feedback reactive element of an amplifier unit in the line current driver device are in the form of a synthesized feedback impedance.

8. The apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the tuned circuit which is formed from circuit components of the data transmission path unit and of the matching filter unit has a resonant frequency at 16 kHz or 12 kHz.
