Abstract

A surface acoustic wave device responsive to an interrogation signal for producing a return signal. The surface acoustic wave device comprises an antenna for receiving the interrogation signal, a piezoelectric substrate, one or more frequency-selective reflective arrays disposed on the piezoelectric substrate, an interdigital transducer for launching an incident surface acoustic wave on the substrate in response to the interrogation signal, the incident surface acoustic wave propagating to the one or more frequency-selective reflective arrays, a reflected surface acoustic wave reflected from each one of the reflective arrays, the interdigital transducer receiving the reflected surface acoustic waves, and the return signal, responsive to each reflected surface acoustic waves.
