Abstract

Systems and related methods providing for touch sensors using high sensitivity Lamb waves are disclosed herein. A touch controller may comprise circuitry having operating frequency characteristics, including an operating frequency f and a frequency spread Δf; and circuitry configured to minimize effects of dispersion based upon at least one of selected operating frequency characteristics relative to a frequency dependence of a group velocity of propagating waves and a frequency dependent phase error, wherein the touch controller generates an excitation signal.
