Wireless Power System With Voltage Regulation - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18503389 titled 'Wireless Power System With Voltage Regulation
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a wireless charging system with a power transmitting device that wirelessly transfers power to a power receiving device. The power receiving device includes a voltage regulator that operates independently from the power transmitting device, outputting a rectified voltage and activating pull-down rectifier switches during zero voltage crossings to boost the rectified voltage. Control error packets are sent from the power receiving device to the power transmitting device to direct adjustments to the transmit power level.
- Wireless charging system with power transmitting and receiving devices

Original Abstract Submitted
A wireless charging system having a power transmitting device may wirelessly transfer power to a power receiving device. The power receiving device may include a voltage regulator that operates independently from the power transmitting device. The voltage regulator may output a rectified voltage and may activate pull-down rectifier switches during zero voltage crossings to boost the rectified voltage. The power receiving device may send control error packets to the power transmitting device to direct the power transmitting device to adjust the transmit power level.
