Electronic apparatus, power supply system and power supply control method
A power supply system includes a first power supply apparatus configured to perform power transmission by an electromagnetic wave having a first frequency band, and a second power supply apparatus configured to perform power transmission by an electromagnetic wave having a second frequency band. The first power supply apparatus and the second power supply apparatus are provided so as to be 2H×{tan(θ)} or greater distant from each other, when each of the first power supply apparatus and the second power supply apparatus is provided in height H from a floor surface, where H is a positive number, and when a direction of a maximum value ±3 dB is in a range from −θ to +θ in a case where a perpendicular downward direction from each position is a standard.
1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
antenna circuitry;
power transmission circuitry configured to transmit power by an electromagnetic wave from the antenna with a first frequency band;
detection circuitry configured to perform carrier sense with a second frequency band different from the first frequency band, using the antenna circuitry; and
interference avoidance circuitry configured to change a directivity of an electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry,
wherein the interference avoidance circuitry is configured to:
sequentially change a beam directivity of the electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry; and
when a signal greater than a predetermined value is detected by the detection circuitry, set a beam direction of the electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry to a direction other than an estimated direction of arrival of the signal.
2. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the interference avoidance circuitry is further configured to change a direction of a beam of the electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry when a signal greater than a predetermined value is detected by the detection circuitry.
3. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein when a signal greater than a predetermined value is detected by the detection circuitry, the interference avoidance circuitry is further configured to cause a notch of a beam of the electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry to face the estimated direction of arrival of the signal, the estimated direction being estimated at a time of receiving the signal in the antenna circuitry.
4. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the interference avoidance circuitry is further configured to widen a beam width of the electromagnetic wave output from the antenna circuitry when a signal is detected by the detection circuitry.
