The present invention relates to a wireless power transmitter and a control method thereof, and more particularly to a wireless power transmitter and method for transmitting wireless charging power to a wireless power receiver.
A mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a PDA (Personal Digital Assistants) is driven by a rechargeable battery due to its characteristics. To charge such a battery, a mobile terminal is used using a separate charging device. Supply electrical energy to the battery For example, since a separate contact terminal is formed outside the charging device and the battery, the charging device and the battery are electrically connected by contacting each other.
However, in such a contact charging method, since the contact terminal protrudes to the outside, corrosion due to contamination by foreign substances or exposure to moisture tends to occur. Obviously, contamination or corrosion can adversely affect charging.
In order to solve such problems, wireless charging or contactless charging technology has been developed.
Wireless charging technology uses wireless power transmission and reception. For example, a mobile phone can be charged wirelessly by simply placing it on a charging pad without connecting or plugging in a separate charging connector. Wireless charging technology is generally applied to electric toothbrushes and razors.
Generally, it is known as a wireless electric toothbrush or a wireless electric razor. Such wireless charging technology can enhance the waterproof function by charging electronic products wirelessly, and since there is no need for a wired charger, there is an advantage that the portability of electronic devices can be improved. It is also expected that related technologies will be greatly developed.
Such wireless charging technology includes an electromagnetic induction method using a coil, a resonance method using resonance (Resonance), and a radio wave radiation (RF / Micro Wave Radiation) method that converts electrical energy into microwaves for transmission. There is.
Until now, the method using electromagnetic induction has been the mainstream, but recently, in Japan and abroad, we succeeded in conducting experiments to transmit power wirelessly from a distance of several tens of meters using microwaves. Everywhere in the world, we foresee that the era of charging all electronic products wirelessly without wires will open.
The electric power transmission method by electromagnetic induction is a method of transmitting electric power between a primary coil and a secondary coil. Specifically, when a magnet can be moved to a coil, an induced current is generated. Using this, a magnetic field is generated from the transmitting end, and a current is induced by a change in the magnetic field at the receiving end to generate energy. . Such a phenomenon is called a magnetic induction phenomenon, and a power transmission method using this phenomenon is excellent in energy transmission efficiency.
Coupled Mode Theory, that is, the resonance-type power transmission principle based on the concept of physics that when a tuning fork is sounded, the adjacent wine glass also sounds at such a frequency is used. However, in resonance-based power transmission, an electromagnetic wave carrying electrical energy is resonated instead of resonating sound. The resonated electrical energy is transferred directly to the device having the resonant frequency, and the unused portion is reabsorbed by the electromagnetic field instead of spreading into the air. As a result, it is considered that the resonant electric energy does not affect the surrounding machines and body.
Despite active research on wireless charging methods, the order of wireless charging, search for wireless power transceivers, selection of communication frequency between wireless power transceivers, adjustment of wireless power, selection of matching circuit No standard has been proposed regarding the distribution of communication time for each wireless power receiver in one charging cycle.

When the power transmission unit 211 is realized by a loop coil, the inductance (L) of the loop coil may be changeable.
The controller 212 can control the overall operation of the wireless power transmitter 200. For example, the control unit 212 can control the overall operation of the wireless power transmitter 200 using a control algorithm, program, or application read from a storage memory (not shown). The control unit 212 may be realized in the form of a CPU, a microprocessor, a minicomputer, or the like.
The communication unit 213 communicates with the wireless power receiver 250, that is, the communication unit 253 by a predetermined communication method. For example, the communication unit 213 communicates with the communication unit 253 of the wireless power receiver 250 using NFC (Near Field Communication), ZigBee communication, infrared communication, visible light communication, or the like. More specifically, the communication unit 213 may use an IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) 802.15.4 ZigBee communication method or a CSMA / CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) algorithm. .
The communication unit 213 transmits the information signal of the wireless power transmitter 200. For example, the communication unit 213 can unicast, multicast, or broadcast the information signal.
Table 1 shows an example of a data structure of an information signal transmitted from the wireless power transmitter 200. For example, the wireless power transmitter 200 transmits the signals shown in Table 1 at predetermined intervals, and the signals are referred to as Notice signals.
In Table 1, a frame type field indicates the type of a signal, that is, a Notice signal. The protocol version field indicates the type of protocol of the communication method, and 4 bits are allocated. The sequence number field indicates the order of the signals and 1 Byte is allocated. For example, the sequence number order may be increased by one corresponding to the transmission / reception step of each signal. The network ID field indicates a network identifier (network ID) of the wireless power transmitter 200, and 1 Byte is allocated. The Rx to Report (schedule mask) field indicates a wireless power receiver that reports to the wireless power transmitter 200 and is assigned 1 Byte.

In Table 2, Rx1 to Rx8 correspond to the wireless power receivers 1 to 8. In the Rx to Report (schedule mask) field shown in Table 2, the wireless power receiver with bits set to 1, ie, Rx1 Rx6, Rx7, and Rx8 should report.
The Reserved field is a field reserved for future use and is assigned 5 bytes. The Number of Rx field indicates the number of wireless power receivers around the wireless power transmitter 200 and is assigned 3 bits.
The signals in Table 1 may be assigned to WPT (Wireless Power Transfer) in the data structure of IEEE 802.15.4 format. Table 3 shows the data structure of IEEE 802.15.4.
In Table 3, the data structure of IEEE802.15.4 includes a preamble field, an SFD (Start Frame Delimiter) field, a frame length field, a WPT field, and a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) 16 field. The data structure shown in can correspond to the WPT field.

For example, the power information includes at least one of the capacity of the wireless power receiver 250, the remaining battery capacity, the number of times of charging, the battery usage, the battery capacity, and the battery charge / consumption rate. The communication unit 213 transmits a charging function control signal that controls the charging function of the wireless power receiver 250.

For example, the communication unit 213 receives the Notice signal in Table 1 from another wireless power transmitter. The controller 252 controls the overall operation of the wireless power receiver 250.
FIG. 2 a shows that the wireless power transmitter 200 having the separate power transmission unit 211 and the communication unit 213 is communicated in an out-band manner. Not limited. For example, the power transmission unit 211 and the communication unit 213 may be incorporated in one hardware device, and thus the wireless power transmitter 200 may perform communication in an in-band manner.
FIG. 2b is a block diagram illustrating a wireless power receiver according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 2 b, the wireless power receiver 250 includes a power receiving unit 251, a control unit 252, a communication unit 253, a rectifying unit 254, a DC / DC converter unit 255, a switch unit 256 and a charging unit 257.

The rectification unit 254 rectifies the wireless power received by the power reception unit 251 into a DC form, for example. The DC / DC converter unit 255 converts the rectified power with a predetermined gain. For example, the DC / DC converter unit 255 converts the rectified power so that the voltage at the output terminal 259 becomes 5V. However, the minimum value and the maximum value of the voltage that can be applied can already be set at the front end (input end) 258 of the DC / DC converter unit 255, and this value is the Input Voltage MIN of the Request join signal described later. It may be recorded in the field and the Input Voltage MAX field.

Switch unit 256 connects DC / DC converter unit 255 and charging unit 257. The switch unit 256 maintains an on / off state under the control of the control unit 252. Charging unit 257 stores the converted electric power input from DC / DC converter unit 255 when switch unit 256 is on.
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a wireless power transceiver according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 3, the wireless power transmitter detects a nearby object in step S301. For example, the wireless power transmitter detects whether there is a new object near the wireless power transmitter by detecting a load change or based on various criteria such as voltage, current, phase, temperature, etc. can do.
In step S303, the wireless power receiver searches for a wireless power transmitter on at least one channel and determines a wireless power transmitter for receiving wireless power. For example, the wireless power receiver transmits a search signal of at least one wireless power transmitter to at least one wireless power transmitter and is received in response to the search signal of at least one wireless power transmitter. To determine a wireless power transmitter for receiving wireless power. The wireless power receiver then forms a pair with the wireless power transmitter for receiving wireless power.
The wireless power receiver can join a wireless power network controlled by a wireless power transmitter for receiving wireless power. For example, the wireless power receiver can transmit a subscription request signal to a wireless power transmitter for receiving wireless power. The wireless power receiver receives a join response signal from the wireless power transmitter. For example, the subscription response signal includes subscription permission / inhibition information. Accordingly, the wireless power receiver determines whether or not to join the wireless power network using the subscription response signal.
In step S307, the wireless power transmitter and the wireless power receiver for receiving wireless power enter a standby state. In the standby state, the wireless power transmitter transmits a command signal to the wireless power receiver. The wireless power receiver transmits a report signal or an ACK signal in response to the command signal. If the command signal includes a charge start command, the wireless power receiver can start charging (S309).
FIG. 4 illustrates a typical method for detecting a wireless power receiver.
Referring to FIG. 4, the wireless power transmitter 1101 holds a detection state in which detection power (Pdet) 1110 and 1111 are transmitted during a detection valid period (tdet) every predetermined detection period (tdet_per). The detection power (Pdet) 1110 and 1111 and the detection effective period are determined by the wireless power transmitter 1101 so that the wireless transmitter can detect the change in the load value of the power transmission unit, that is, the resonator and wirelessly charge within the effective range. Is determined by the minimum amount of power and time required to detect whether there are any candidate devices. In other words, since the sensing of the candidate device, i.e., the metal object, may only sense the load change of the resonator, a relatively low voltage sine wave having a magnitude capable of sensing the load value of the resonator ( sin wave) is periodically generated for a short period of time necessary to sense the load value of the resonator to minimize power consumption in the detection state. The detection state is held for a detection valid period until a new device is detected.
For example, if a wireless power receiver is placed on the wireless power transmitter 1101, the wireless power transmitter 1101 can detect a load change, which indicates that an object has been placed around it. Check. FIG. 4 shows that the wireless power transmitter 1101 detects an object based on detection of a load change. However, the wireless power transmitter 1101 has various voltages, currents, temperatures, phases, and the like. An object can be detected based on detection of a change in the criterion.
When the wireless power receiver 1102 is disposed near the wireless power transmitter 1101, the wireless power transmitter 1101 detects a load change when sending the detected power (Pdet) 1111.
When the object, that is, the wireless power receiver 1102 is detected within the detection valid period, the wireless power transmitter 1101 transmits driving power (Preg) 1114. Here, the driving power 1114 has sufficient power to drive the control unit or MCU of the wireless power receiver 1102. The wireless power receiver 1102 transmits a search signal 1112, and the wireless power transmitter 1101 transmits a response search signal 1113.
As described above, a normal wireless power transmitter can apply detection power for periodically detecting a wireless power receiver. However, when the wireless power receiver has relatively low power consumption, the wireless power transmitter 1101 may not be able to detect the wireless power receiver. If the wireless power receiver has relatively low power consumption, the load change value may be insignificant. As described above, the wireless power transmitter 1101 may not be able to distinguish the load change value from noise when the load change value is insignificant. In such a case, the wireless power transmitter 1101 may not be able to detect the wireless power receiver.
FIG. 5 illustrates a typical method for detecting a wireless power transmitter.
Referring to FIG. 5, the normal wireless power transmitter 1001 sets detection power (Pbea) 1041 and 1051 for each detection period (tbea_per) determined for each predetermined period during the detection effective period (tbea). Holds the detection status to be sent. Here, the detected power (Pbea) 1041 and 1051 may be large enough to drive the wireless power receiver. The effective period (tbea) may be a time during which the wireless power receiver is driven and predetermined communication can be performed.
For example, when the wireless power receiver 1002 is placed on the wireless power transmitter 1001 (1003), the wireless power transmitter 1001 can detect a load change, thereby placing an object around itself. Make sure. FIG. 5 shows that the wireless power transmitter 1001 detects an object based on detection of a load change. However, the wireless power transmitter 1001 has various voltages, currents, temperatures, phases, and the like. An object may be detected based on detection change of the determination criterion.
The wireless power transmitter 1001 maintains a detection state in which detection power (Pbea) 1041, 1051, and 1061 are transmitted for a detection valid period (tbea) every predetermined detection period (tbea_per). On the other hand, when the wireless power receiver 1002 is arranged near the wireless power transmitter 1001, the wireless power transmitter 1001 determines that the load change corresponding to this is detected in the transmission period of the detected power (Pbea) 1061. I can grasp it.
After detecting the object, ie, the wireless power receiver 1002, the wireless power transmitter 1101 holds the application of the detected power 1061.
As described above, the normal wireless power transmitter 1001 can apply detection power for periodically detecting the wireless power receiver 1002. However, the wireless power transmitter 1001 transmits the power that can drive the wireless power receiver 1002 during the time when the wireless power receiver 1002 is driven and can communicate, thereby The problem of increased waste arises.
FIG. 6 illustrates a method for detecting a wireless power receiver according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 6, the wireless power transmitter 600 applies different types of detection power during a predetermined cycle (Beacon cycle). Here, the predetermined cycle (Beacon cycle) includes a first period and a second period. The wireless power transmitter 600 applies the first detection power 601 during the first period, and applies the second detection power 602 to 610 during the second period. The wireless power transmitter 600 applies the first detection power 601 for L ms.
Here, the first detected power 601 may be large enough to drive the wireless power receiver. The duration (L ms) of the first detected power 601 may be a time during which the wireless power receiver can be driven and predetermined communication can be performed. The second detection powers 602 to 610 have an amount of power sufficient to detect the wireless power receiver. Each second detected power has a duration of N ms. There may be a time interval of N-K ms between each second detection power.
When the already set cycle (Beacon cycle) is exceeded, the wireless power transmitter 600 applies the first detection power 611 again. In addition, the wireless power transmitter 600 applies the second detection power 612 to 615.
Here, the wireless power receiver 650 is disposed on the wireless power transmitter 600 during the application time of the second detection power 614 and the second detection power 615. When the wireless power receiver 650 has relatively high power consumption, the wireless power transmitter 600 can detect the wireless power receiver 650 through the load change during the application time of the second detection power 615.
The wireless power transmitter 600 applies the driving power 616 after detecting the wireless power receiver 650. The drive power 616 may be the power required to drive the controller or MCU of the wireless power receiver 650.
Wireless power receiver 650 receives drive power 616. The wireless power receiver 650 generates and transmits a search signal (hereinafter referred to as a search signal) for the wireless power transmitter based on the received drive power 616 (S621).
