However, suffering from the high harmonic currents in strong coupling CS systems, the output power will deviate from the theoretical values estimated by the fundamental harmonic approximation (FHA) and its extension method, i.e., E-FHA, in which the power is transferred by both the fundamental current and the high order harmonic currents. In order to achieve high precise output estimation, a unified analysis is proposed in this paper. First, “Fundamental-harmonic Double Resonance Phenomenon” is revealed via impedance analysis, to address the nature of the high harmonic currents in strong coupling systems. Then, a unified output current expression owning high precision is derived, and followed by a unified fundamental load impedance. Discussions show that both the output and the fundamental load impedance of FHA, and E-FHA are the special cases of the unified expressions proposed. FHA and E-FHA are precise enough for the loose coupling system, whereas the proposed method is indispensable for the strong coupling system with k>0.4 . Finally, simulations and experimental measurements of a 1.6kW CS system, as well as the comparative studies related to FHA, E-FHA, and the proposed method, are presented, indicating that the proposed method is effective for high precise output estimation.展开更多
