Abstract
Commonly used SAW duplexers have a difficulty on manufacture so that a transmission line is printed on the package or an LTCC multi-layer is needed because a quarter-wave transmission line which is a kind of an isolation network is applied to the SAW duplexers. In this study, new structures of one chip type SAW duplexers are proposed. In the proposed structure, Tx and Rx SAW ladder filters and isolation networks are located on a single 36LiTaO$_3$ piezoelectric substrate. The manufacture process is very simple than commonly used product. It is possible to improve tile performance by means of optimizing the micro-strip line lumped elements. It is easy to integrate and modulate with other surrounding components. The optimal design techniques can be applied to other kind of multi-port devices.
