Abstract

The design of SAW filters on quartz consisting of two apodised in-line interdigital transducers (IDT) without using multistrip coupler is presented. The analytical model is described by taking into account two-dimensional static charge distribution, surface wave diffraction and the influence of the external network. A wideband diffraction compensation method is applied to compensate these second-order effects. The design optimisation criteria of the two apodised in-line IDTs are presented. The theoretical and experimental frequency responses of a filter are shown
