[0027] Wireless charging is a way of charging through wireless power transmission. It converts electrical energy into other forms of relay energy (such as electromagnetic field energy, laser, microwave and mechanical wave, etc.) through a transmitter, transmits it over a certain distance, and then converts the relay energy into electrical energy through a receiver, and then transmits the electrical energy to the battery to achieve wireless charging. The wireless charger is equipped with a transmitter, and the device to be charged is equipped with a receiver. The wireless charger can realize wireless charging of the device to be charged.
