Aspects of modeling the frequency response of a two-port waveguide-coupled SAW resonator-filter

Coupling-of-modes-in-time and coupling-of-modes-in-space analyses are applied to the modeling of a two-port two-pole waveguide-coupled SAW resonator filter. Modeling is applied to a lumped equivalent circuit and a distributed circuit. While the accuracy of the coupling estimation dictates the exact mode-splitting and bandwidth, the ensuing computations can give a good representation of the amplitude and phase response, including the effect of …
