Abstract
A surface acoustic wave device having a novel structure capable of restricting TTE and ripple noise on a frequency characteristics and group delay time characteristics thereof is provided under a condition by which acoustic reflection is suppressed when there is internal dissipation in the device and/or a peripheral circuit thereof. When the device includes a unidirectional interdigital transducer, it is possible to restrict ripple of the frequency characteristics and the group delay time characteristics and to reduce loss without using a phase shifter. By using the surface acoustic wave device according to the present invention, a communication apparatus can be improved in performance.
