Fast computation of static capacitance for periodic SAW transducers.
An efficient algorithm to compute the static capacitance of periodic SAW (surface acoustic wave) interdigital transducers is proposed. The method is based on a new formulation of the well-known relationship giving the capacitance as a linear combination of the charges induced on an infinite transducer for one-electrode excitation. Besides computational efficiency, an interesting physical interpretation of static capacitance results. The algorithm itself is also tailored to split-finger transducers.
