According to an embodiment, a wireless power transmitting device may include a transmission coil, a power providing circuit, and at least one controller. The at least one controller may be configured to control the power providing circuit to apply first power to the transmission coil, identify a resonant frequency, based on a voltage measured at the transmission coil in response to the first power applied to the transmission coil, based on a difference between the identified resonant frequency and a reference frequency meeting a designated condition, identify that a foreign object is placed on a charging area of the wireless power transmitting device, and based on the difference between the identified resonant frequency and the reference frequency failing to meet the designated condition, control the power providing circuit to apply, to the transmission coil, at least one second power for performing communication with a wireless power receiving device.
