This article proposes a dual-frequency wireless power transfer (WPT) with dual CLCL hybrid compensation topology and multilayer self-decoupled compact coils (MLSDCCs). It extends the transmission distance corresponding to stable high transmission power and efficiency. Based on the parameter constraints of compensation capacitances and inductances, CLCL hybrid compensation topology realizes simultaneous resonance at fundamental and third harmonic frequencies. A typical inverter can meet the requirements of dual-frequency WPT without complex control or more number and improve the utilization rate of square voltage. According to interleaving and rotary stacking of unipolar and bipolar coils in MLSDCCs, the couplings between layers and unnecessary couplings of magnetic coupling mechanism (MCM) are eliminated. Only the main couplings for power transmission are retained and the volume of MCM is reduced. Finally, a 1 kW experimental platform is built. Compared with the typical single-frequency WPT, the maximum transmission power is increased by 2.8%, while the maximum transmission efficiency is only reduced by 0.53%. The main advantage is that the transmission distance corresponding to continuous high-power transmission (in the range of 95%-100% maximum receiving power) is increased by 2.75 times. When the lateral offset distance of the Y -axis is one-sixth of the coil side length, the transmission efficiency decreases by only 1.47%.
