    Abstract: Systems and methods for wireless power transmission are described herein. In one aspect, an apparatus for wireless power transmission comprises a first antenna array of antenna coils configured to generate a first wireless field. A second antenna array of antenna coils generates a second wireless field. The first antenna array at least partially overlaps the second antenna array. A driver circuit generates first and second drive signals for generation of the first and second wireless fields via the first and second antenna arrays, respectively. The first wireless field is orthogonal with respect to the second wireless field. The first antenna array and the driver circuit power the antenna coils of the first antenna array with alternating polarities. The second antenna array and the driver circuit power the antenna coils of the second antenna array with alternating polarities.

    Abstract: Aspects of a protection circuit and method are disclosed. An apparatus to transmit wireless power comprises a transmit antenna, a driver, a sensing circuit, and a control circuit. The transmit antenna generates a wireless field to charge devices. The driver powers the transmit antenna for generation of the wireless field. A power level of the wireless field is based on a power level of the driver. The sensing circuit senses wireless power received at the transmit antenna and generates a monitoring signal based on the sensed wireless power received at the transmit antenna. The control circuit controls the power level or inhibits the driver from powering the transmit antenna when the monitoring signal indicates that the transmit antenna is receiving wireless power from a foreign antenna.
