Abstract

A method for wireless transfer of energy to a local coil system for a magnetic resonance system is provided. The method includes determining an energy requirement value representing a minimum energy level to be fed to the local coil system, so that the local coil system may carry out a predetermined function over a predetermined time period. Energy is transferred adaptively to the local coil system depending on the energy requirement value.
