Disclosed herein are systems and methods for determining a current of a resonator coil during operation of a wireless power system having the resonator coil, in which the resonator coil is coupled to a fixed capacitive network and a reactance circuit. The systems and methods can include determining a first signal which can include receiving a current in an inductor of the reactance circuit; converting the current to a voltage signal; and scaling the voltage signal. The systems and methods can include determining a second signal which can include receiving an output voltage at an output of the reactance circuit; dividing the output voltage; and integrating the divided scaled voltage to produce an inverted differentiated voltage signal. The methods can include summing the first signal and the second signal to produce a summed signal; and determining the current in the resonator coil based on the summed signal.
