Abstract

Of various SPUDT SAW filter types, we select the two most common types, DART and EWC/SPUDT, and analyze their performance with the Smith equivalent circuit method. Based on the results for an exemplary case, a usual apodized SAW filter, we investigate the advantage of one type over the other, if any, in a quantitative manner. To compensate for the performance degradation that can happen in the process of the modification of the apodized filer to the SPUDT structure, we apply the triangular weighting technique to wide fingers of the IDT. Further, the variation in performance of the SPUDT structure is investigated in relation to its electrode thickness and the number of fingers. The results in this paper are expected to enable us to easily select an SPUDT type appropriate for each particular application field.

본 연구에서는 SPUDT 중에서도 현재 가장 일반적으로 사용되면서 동시에 좋은 성능을 가지는 DART와 EWC/SPUDT형 SAW 필터에 대해서 그 효용성을 Smith 등가회로 해석법을 이용하여 분석하였고, apodization weighting을 하였을 때 각각 어떠한 차이를 보이는지를 정량적으로 평가하였다. 그리고 단순히 apodization weighting된 SAW 필터에 SPUDT를 적용하였을 때 생기는 특성열화를 보상하기 위한 방법으로 이 두 종류의 SPUDT에 대해서 폭이 넓은 전극(wide electrode)에 대한 weighting을 독립적으로 행하였다. 그리고 전극두께 및 전극개수에 따른 SPUDT의 성능변화를 DART 및 EWC/SPUDT형 SAW 필터에 대하여 비교하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 특정 형태의 SAW 필터에 SPUDT를 적용하는 문제에 있어서 적절한 SPUDT의 타입을 결정하는데 도움을 주리라 기대된다.
