    Self-resonant helical antenna and capacitor-loaded helical antenna of the same dimension for coupled-resonant wireless power transfer is discussed. At first, fundamental difference of the self-resonant and the capacitor-loaded antenna is demonstrated by calculating electric- and magnetic-coupling coefficient. Next, performance of the helical antennas are discussed from viewpoints of 1) transmission efficiency, 2) undesired emission, 3) near-field leakage, 4) effect of human body and 5) effect of conductivity. We have found that the self-resonant helical antenna has an advantage in low transmission loss due to a conductivity of wire. On the other hand, the capacitor-loaded antenna has an advantage in low emission, long transfer distance, and low influence of resonant frequency from human body. This is because both electric-field coupling and magnetic-field coupling are dominant for the self-resonant antenna while only magnetic-field coupling is dominant in the capacitor-loaded antenna.
