Abstract :
In this paper various network analysis methods for the interconnection of building blocks used for Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices are described. A practical example is given to demonstrate the principles of a method which can be used to analyze a SAW device consisting of arbitrary interconnected building blocks. Some more simple procedures are also discussed. The paper concludes with a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of the various methods
