Wireless power transmitter
A wireless power transmitter includes an amplifier configured to amplify a power; a transmitter configured to resonate the power amplified by the amplifier; and a reference signal provider configured to provide a reference signal to the amplifier and change a frequency of the reference signal.
1. A wireless power transmitter comprising:
an amplifier configured to amplify a power;
a transmitter configured to resonate the power amplified by the amplifier; and
a reference signal provider configured to provide a reference signal to the amplifier and to randomly change a frequency of the reference signal
wherein the reference signal provider randomly changing the frequency comprises providing a clock signal of which a frequency is irregularly varied, and
wherein the reference signal provider is further configured to generate the clock signal of which the frequency is irregularly varied by irregularly varying an operation current of a relaxation oscillator.
2. The wireless power transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the transmitter is further configured to overlap first power having a resonance frequency, second power having a frequency lower than the resonance frequency, and third power having a frequency higher than the resonance frequency with one another and to wirelessly transmit the overlapping power, and
the reference signal provider is further configured to vary the frequency of the reference signal in a frequency range between the second power and the third power.
3. The wireless power transmitter of claim 2 , wherein the reference signal provider is further configured to determine the frequency of the second power and the frequency of the third power in the frequency range, so that deviation between maximum transmission power and minimum transmission power does not exceed about 10 dB.
4. The wireless power transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the reference signal provider randomly changing the frequency comprises randomly selecting the frequency of the reference signal in the frequency range.
5. A wireless power transmitter comprising:
an amplifier configured to amplify a power;
a transmitter configured to resonate the power amplified by the amplifier; and
a reference signal provider configured to provide a reference signal to the amplifier and to randomly change a frequency of the reference signal
wherein the reference signal provider randomly changing the frequency comprises providing a clock signal of which a frequency is irregularly varied, and
wherein the reference signal provider further comprises a variable capacitor connected to an output terminal thereof, and
the reference signal provider is further configured to generate the clock signal of which the frequency is irregularly varied by irregularly varying output capacitance of the variable capacitor.
6. The wireless power transmitter of claim 1 , further comprising a power provider, the power provider comprising:
a step-up direct current (DC)-DC converter configured to provide the power to the amplifier; and
a step-down DC-DC converter configured to provide operating power to the amplifier and the reference signal provider.
7. The wireless power transmitter of claim 1 , further comprising:
a communications circuit configured to generate and process a communications signal; and
an antenna configured to transmit and receive the communications signal,
wherein the power provider is configured to provide the power to the communications circuit and the antenna.
8. A wireless power transmitter comprising:
a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit power by a resonance; and
a power supply configured to provide power of which a frequency is randomly varied in a range between a first frequency which is lower than a resonance frequency and a second frequency which is higher than the resonance frequency to the transmitter,
wherein the power supply is further configured to provide power of which the frequency is irregularly varied in the range.
9. The wireless power transmitter of claim 8 , wherein the power supply determines a frequency variable range of the power in the range of the first frequency or more and the second frequency or less, so that deviation between maximum transmission power and minimum transmission power does not exceed 10 dB.
10. The wireless power transmitter of claim 8 , wherein the power supply randomly selects a frequency variable period and/or a frequency variable pattern of the power.
