Abstract

Claims (47)

1 . A method transmitting a response message performed by a data stream responder in a wireless power transfer system, the method comprising:

entering a power transfer phase related to transmitting or receiving wireless power; and

transmitting the response message to a data stream initiator in the power transfer phase,

wherein the response message is transmitted within a first timeout period, and

wherein a value of the first timeout period is set based on a time interval related to a 1-byte Auxiliary Data Transport (ADT) packet, a Data Stream Response (DSR) packet, and a communication error.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a time point of the first timeout period is a time point of transmission of an Auxiliary Data Control (ADC) packet related to an opening of the response message.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein an end point of the first timeout period is an end point of a DSR packet which is a response to an ADC packet related to an end of the response message.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request message for the response message from the data stream initiator,

wherein the request message may be transmitted within a second timeout period,

wherein a starting point of the second timeout period is a starting point of transmission for an ADC packet related to an opening of the request message,

wherein an end point of the second timeout period is an end point of a DSR packet which is a response to an ADC packet related to an end of the request message.

5 . The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

setting a preparation period for receiving the response message,

wherein during the preparation period, a cryptographic function is performed by the data stream responder,

wherein during the preparation period, Received Power (RP) packets is transmitted to the data stream responder three or four times per second.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein a starting point of the preparation period is a starting point of the ADC packet related to the end of the request message,

wherein an end point of the preparation period is a starting point of an attention (ATN) packet indicating that the encryption function and a preparation of the response message are completed.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the ADC packet related to the opening of the request message and the response message is an ADC/auth packet,

wherein the ADC packet related to the end of the request message and the response message is an ADC/end packet.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the request message is at least one of a GET_DIGEST message, a GET_CERTIFICATE message, and a Challenge message,

wherein the above response message is at least one of a DIGEST message, a CERTIFICATES message, and a Challenge_Auth message.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the preparation period is at least one of t_DigestReady, t_CertificatesReady, and t_ChallengeAuthReady.

10 . A data stream responder in a wireless power transfer system, the data stream responder comprising:

a converter associated with transmitting or receiving wireless power; and

a communication/controller associated with controlling the transmitting or receiving of the wireless power,

wherein the data stream responder:

enters a power transfer phase related to transmitting or receiving wireless power; and

transmits the response message to a data stream initiator in the power transfer phase,

wherein the response message is transmitted within a first timeout period, and

wherein a value of the first timeout period is set based on a time interval related to a 1-byte Auxiliary Data Transport (ADT) packet, a Data Stream Response (DSR) packet, and a communication error.

11 . A method for receiving a response message performed by a data stream initiator in a wireless power transfer system, the method comprising:

entering a power transfer phase related to transmitting or receiving wireless power; and

receiving a response message from a data stream responder in the power transfer phase,

wherein the response message is transmitted within a first timeout period, and

wherein a value of the first timeout period is set based on a time interval related to a 1-byte Auxiliary Data Transport (ADT) packet, a Data Stream Response (DSR) packet, and a communication error.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein a time point of the first timeout period is a time point of transmission of an Auxiliary Data Control (ADC) packet related to an opening of the response message.

13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein an end point of the first timeout period is an end point of a DSR packet which is a response to an ADC packet related to an end of the response message.

14 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

transmitting a request message for the response message to the data stream responder,

wherein the request message may be transmitted within a second timeout period,

wherein a starting point of the second timeout period is a starting point of transmission for an ADC packet related to an opening of the request message,

wherein an end point of the second timeout period is an end point of a DSR packet which is a response to an ADC packet related to an end of the request message.

15 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

setting a preparation period for receiving the response message,

wherein during the preparation period, a cryptographic function is performed by the data stream responder,

wherein during the preparation period, Received Power (RP) packets is transmitted to the data stream responder three or four times per second.
