Abstract

A power receiving device according to the present disclosure includes a power receiving section that receives power from a power feed device with use of a power receiving coil; and a communication section that transmits coil information to the power feed device, the coil information indicating whether or not a coil is provided near the power receiving coil.

Claims (50)

1. A power receiving device, comprising:

a power receiving section configured to receive power from a power feed device with use of a power receiving coil; and

a communication section configured to transmit coil information regarding the power receiving coil to the power feed device, the coil information indicating whether the power receiving device comprises a coil provided near the power receiving coil, wherein the power receiving device comprises the coil which is provided near the power receiving coil and configures a resonant circuit,

the coil information includes information regarding an impedance of the resonant circuit,

the communication section is configured to receive response information after transmitting the coil information, the response information indicating whether the power feed device is to supply power to the power receiving section, and

in a case where the response information indicates that power is to be supplied, the communication section is configured to transmit a request to the power feed device for an increase in feeding power.

2. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the communication section is configured to transmit power-receiving coil information to the power feed device, the power-receiving coil information corresponding to a characteristic of the power receiving coil.

3. The power receiving device according to claim 2 , wherein

the communication section is configured to transmit the coil information after transmitting the power-receiving coil information.

4. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the coil information includes information regarding number of resonant points in the resonant circuit, or

the coil information includes information regarding number of resonant points in the resonant circuit and at least one of information regarding a resonance frequency of the resonant circuit, the information regarding the impedance of the resonant circuit, or information regarding a quality factor of the resonant circuit.

5. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the coil information includes information regarding a resonance frequency of the resonant circuit.

6. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the resonant circuit has a resonant frequency around 13.56 MHz.

7. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the power receiving section is configured to start charging a secondary battery after the communication section transmits the coil information to the power feed device.

8. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the coil is used for communication.

9. The power receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein

the communication section is configured to transmit the coil information through modulating an impedance of the communication section during a period in which the communication section receives a predetermined signal transmitted from the power feed device.

10. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a power receiving section configured to receive power from a power feed device with use of a power receiving coil; and

a communication section configured to transmit coil information regarding the power receiving coil to the power feed device, the coil information indicating whether the power receiving section comprises a coil provided near the power receiving coil, wherein the power receiving section comprises the coil which is provided near the power receiving coil and configures a resonant circuit,

the coil information includes information regarding an impedance of the resonant circuit,

the communication section is configured to receive response information after transmitting the coil information, the response information indicating whether the power feed device is to supply power to the power receiving section, and

in a case where the response information indicates that power is to be supplied, the communication section is configured to transmit a request to the power feed device for an increase in feeding power.

11. The electronic apparatus according to claim 10 , comprising the power receiving coil and the coil, wherein

the power receiving coil and the coil are planar coils, and provided in a same plane, and

one of the power receiving coil and the coil is provided inside another.

12. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a power receiving coil;

a coil provided near the power receiving coil;

a power receiving section configured to receive power from a power feed device with use of the power receiving coil; and

a communication section that transmits, to the power feed device, power- receiving coil information regarding the power receiving coil, wherein the power receiving section comprises the coil which is provided near the power receiving coil and configures a resonant circuit,

the coil information includes information regarding an impedance of the resonant circuit,

the communication section is configured to receive response information after transmitting the coil information, the response information indicating whether the power feed device is to supply power to the power receiving section, and

in a case where the response information indicates that power is to be supplied, the communication section is configured to transmit a request to the power feed device for an increase in feeding power.

13. The electronic apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein

the power-receiving coil information includes information regarding a quality factor of the resonant circuit.

14. The electronic apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein

the power feed device is configured to detect whether a foreign object is present on a basis of the power-receiving coil information.

15. The electronic apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein

the power receiving section configured to start charging a secondary battery after the communication section transmits the power-receiving coil information to the power feed device.

16. The electronic apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein

during a period in which the communication section receives a predetermined signal transmitted from the power feed device, the communication section is configured to transmit the power-receiving coil information through modulating an impedance of the communication section.

17. The electronic apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein

the power receiving coil and the coil are planar coils, and provided in a same plane, and one of the power receiving coil and the coil is provided inside another.
