Insertion loss for magnetostatic volume waves

Results were presented earlier for magnetostatic surface waves for wave power, radiation resistance, radiation reactance and insertion loss for multistrip transducers including apodization, variable coupling and two ground planes. Results were also presented for the dispersion relation and group delay for magnetostatic surface waves and magnetostatic volume waves for arbitrary orientation of the external biasing field. Results have now been obtained for forward volume waves and backward volume waves for wave power, radiation resistance, radiation reactance and insertion loss for multistrip transducers including two ground planes, meander line and parallel grating but not including variable coupling. Computer produced graphical results for quantities of interest are presented.
