Claim 7:
8. An apparatus comprising:
a wireless power transmitter circuit to emit wireless signals to detect a presence of a wireless power receiver circuit; and
a controller to alter a wireless polling frequency at which the wireless power transmitter circuit emits the wireless signals to a respective wireless polling frequency of a plurality of polling frequencies based on a power management state of the apparatus, a type of supplied power to the apparatus, detection of an object, or any combination thereof,

wherein to alter the wireless polling frequency, the controller is to alter the wireless polling frequency from a first wireless polling frequency to a second wireless polling frequency,
wherein a first time interval between a first two sequential wireless signals of the wireless signals corresponds to the first wireless polling frequency,
wherein a second time interval between a second two sequential wireless signals of the wireless signals corresponds to the second wireless polling frequency, and
wherein the first time interval is different from the second time interval.
