Abstract

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for wireless charging and location tracking. The method includes: operating in a first mode to enable wireless charging via at least a first coil of a plurality of coils of the device; and operating in a second mode to enable wireless charging via at least a second coil of the plurality of coils of the device Implement location tracking. With the present invention, wireless charging and location tracking can be meaningfully combined, which can provide advantages in at least cost, size, power efficiency and ease of use.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless charging and position tracking, and more particularly to methods and apparatus for combined wireless charging and position tracking. Background technique [0002] Unless otherwise indicated, the approaches described in this section are not prior art to the claims appended hereto and are not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section. [0003] Wireless charging, also known as inductive charging, is a technology that uses electromagnetic (EM) fields to transfer energy between two objects through EM induction. Energy is transferred from the charger to the electrical device through inductive coupling. Wireless charging has recently gained wide acceptance for mobile / portable electronic devices. The same charger can charge one or more devices without the need for dedicated and often incompatible charging cables. [0004] Location tracking is a core functionality in many mobile applications.
