Title
A SAW-based liquid sensor with identification for wireless applications
Abstract
The development of a shear horizontal surface acoustic wave (SH-SAW) liquid sensor with identification (ID) for wireless applications is described. Moreover, a novel feature of "write capability" for this sensor is proposed. The SH-SAW passive sensor has a delay line configuration with a sensing area. The sensor is fabricated on a lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) substrate, which is Y-cut with rotations specified between about 36° around the X-axis. The principle of detection is based on the attenuation and time delay between the signals. The sensor is encoded according to partial reflections of an interrogation signal by metal reflectors placed on both side of the interdigital transducers (IDT). The structure of the sensor, the principle of the wireless communication, the detection process and testing results are presented.
