Abstract

This paper proposes a new design algorithm to optimize the withdrawal weighted SAW ladder devices, Withdrawal weighting on SAW resonators gives enhanced bandwidth and transition band characteristics, so an optimization algorithm was developed for ladder type SAW filters. To illustrate the validity of the technique, this method was applied to the design of RF band CDMA TX SAW filters, and the design results were confirmed to show good agreement with experimental performance.

본 논문에서는 위드로월 (withdrawal) 가중형 SAW필터를 자동으로 최적화할 수 있는 설계도구의 개발 내용을 제시하였다. SAW 공진기에 위드로월 가중법이 적용될 경우, 향상된 대역폭 및 천이대역 특성을 구현할 수 있으며, 이러한 위드로월 가중효과를 이용하여 사다리형 위드로월 SAW필터의 최적화도구를 완성하였다. 본 설계방법의 유효성을 검증하기 위하여 RF 대역 CDMA용 TX 및 RX SAW 필터를 본 설계도구를 이용하여 최적화하였으며 실제 실험 결과, 이론과 매우 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었다.
