A wireless power transmission method transmits power from a first resonance antenna to a second resonance antenna in a noncontact manner through resonance of a magnetic field. The first resonance antenna is a resonance antenna of a power transmitting device, the second resonance antenna is a resonance antenna of a power receiving device. The wireless power transmission method includes setting a first transmission efficiency between the first resonance antenna and the second resonance antenna by changing a frequency of supply power of the power transmitting device. Power transmitted from the first resonance antenna to the second resonance antenna is gradually increased. A resonance frequency is changed by changing an induction coefficient or electrostatic capacity of the second resonance antenna to change the transmission efficiency between the first and second resonance antenna to a second transmission efficiency smaller than the first transmission efficiency, thereby matching received power to required power.
