LID - 10.1109/TUFFC.2019.2932105 [doi] AB - This paper describes application of the hierarchical cascading technique (HCT) to the 3D FEM analysis of transverse mode behaviors in surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices. Mirror cascading is proposed as a speed up technique for the HCT operation using the general purpose graphic processing unit (GPGPU). Two methods are implemented for the analysis; one is impedance calculation, and the other is calculation of SAW scattering coefficients at boundaries. It is demonstrated that HCT enables rapid calculation for successive simulation with scanning design parameters. Thus, techniques discussed in the paper are quite effective for optimization of device structures. It is also shown that GPGPU can accelerate HCT calculation dramatically, especially for 3D cases discussed in this paper.
