Transverse modes in one-port SAW resonators

IEEE Trans Ultrason Ferroelectr Freq Control. 1992;39(6):785-7. doi: 10.1109/58.165565.

Abstract

The S(11) and equivalent S(21) frequency responses of a one-port surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator with transverse modes derived from one-dimensional coupling-of-modes and transmission-matrix analysis. The two-dimensional nature of the problem is approximated by a summation of one-dimensional mode responses for each transverse mode. Comparison between theory and experimental data for a commercial 280-MHz one-port SAW resonator shows good agreement for the placement of transverse modes.
