ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD

According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes processor circuitry configured to control a signal detection module to detect a wireless signal of a wireless communication system, and control a power supply module to supply power to a power reception device with electromagnetic waves. When the wireless signal is not detected during a first period, the power is supplied during a second period. When the wireless signal is not detected during a third period different from the first period, the power is supplied during a fourth period different from the second period. A second ratio of the fourth period to the third period is the same as a first ratio of the second period to the first period.
