PORTABLE TERMINAL APPARATUS AND WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION METHOD BY PORTABLE TERMINAL APPARATUS

A portable device comprising: an inter-device communication transceiver configured to receive, from at least one subordinate portable device that operates in accordance with control performed by the portable device, a power transfer request signal with respect to the subordinate portable device; a power transfer control circuit configured to transfer power to the subordinate portable device; a battery; and a controller configured to control an operation of the inter-device communication transceiver and an operation of the power transfer control circuit. The controller is further configured to: when the inter-device communication transceiver receives the power transfer request signal, detect a battery residual amount; and perform control for causing the power transfer control circuit and the inter-device communication transceiver to output electromagnetic waves for wireless power transfer in accordance with a detection result of the battery residual amount.
