Abstract
One innovation includes a system for reducing magnetic flux of a wireless charging field in a wireless power charging system. The system comprises a wireless power transmitter configured to generate the wireless charging field, the field comprising the magnetic flux and a collector comprising a ferromagnetic material and configured to reduce the magnetic flux. The collector is positioned between a first distance and a second distance at a third distance from the transmitter. The collector is configured to reduce the magnetic flux at a first level at the first distance, at a second level at the second distance, and at a third level at the third distance, the third level greater than each of the first and second levels.
