Title: Acoustic RF Filters Powering Emerging Wireless Systems
Abstract: Future wireless systems—including low earth orbit satellite networks, sixth generation cellular, next generation Wi Fi, autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and robotics—are driving unprecedented demands on radio frequency front ends. As bandwidth, coexistence complexity, power density, and reliability requirements intensify, acoustic RF filters are no longer passive components but critical architectural enablers. This keynote examines how acoustic filter technologies are evolving to power these emerging wireless systems. It explores the complementary roles of bulk acoustic wave (BAW) and thin film surface acoustic wave (TF-SAW) technologies, including the growing importance of integration strategies such as die size reduction strategies. By connecting system level requirements to materials, device physics, and integration challenges, the talk highlights why the future of wireless communication depends on continued innovation in acoustic RF filter technology.
