    Abstract: The present specification provides a wireless power reception apparatus comprising: a power pick-up unit configured to receive wireless power from a wireless power transmission apparatus by magnetic coupling with the wireless power transmission apparatus and convert an AC signal generated by the wireless power into a DC signal; a communication/control unit configured to receive the DC signal from the power pick-up unit and control the wireless power; and a load configured to receive the DC signal from the power pick-up unit. When foreign material is detected before power transmission, wireless power transmission is sustained on the basis of a safe basic power profile of 5 W or less, without interrupting power transmission, and thus, a charging delay can be prevented and the accuracy and reliability of detection of foreign material can be increased despite individual characteristics of the wireless power reception apparatus.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for performing power calibration in a wireless power transmission system. The present specification provides a wireless power transmission apparatus comprising: a power conversion unit configured to transmit, in a power transfer phase, wireless power generated on the basis of magnetic coupling to a wireless power receiving device; and a communication/control unit configured to perform an initial calibration for a power parameter prior to the power transfer phase, receive a first received power packet from the wireless power receiving device indicating the power received by the wireless power receiving device during the power transfer phase, and detect foreign matter by using the received power and a first power loss determined on the basis of the initial calibration. It is possible to adaptively respond to a newly changed wireless charging environment to calibrate transmission power and reception power, and it is possible to detect foreign matter more precisely by detecting a power loss on the basis of the calibrated transmission and reception power.
