The wireless power receiver 200 may transmit a power control message including information on expected maximum power in the identification and configuration state 630. To this end, the wireless power receiver 200, for instance, may transmit a configuration packet 5400 as illustrated in
On the other hand, the wireless power transmitter 100 may generate a power transfer contract which is used for power charging with the wireless power receiver 200 based on the identification information and/or configuration information. The power transfer contract may include the limits of parameters determining a power transfer characteristic in the power transfer state 640.
The wireless power transmitter 100 may terminate the identification and configuration state 630 and return to the selection state 610 prior to entering the power transfer state 640. For instance, the wireless power transmitter 100 may terminate the identification and configuration state 630 to find another electronic device that can receive power in a wireless manner.
