Abstract

As a foundation of an optimal design for SAW tags,the reflection, scattering, and transmission of the reflector composed of a few electrodes are discussed. A source regeneration method based on Green´s function and the finite element method/boundary element method is used to obtain the reflection coefficient and the scattering coefficient for the short-circuited and open circuit reflectors. Examples are presented to show how one can use structure variance to satisfy the requirements for SAW tag design according to the reflection and scattering characteristics.
