Abstract: A convolver having at least a first interdigital transducer for generating a first surface acoustic wave in response to an input signal and a second interdigital transducer for generating a second surface acoustic wave counter to the first surface acoustic wave in response to a time reversed-time multiplexed reference signal. A segmented summing bus having a plurality of fingers extending into the interaction region of the first and second surface acoustic waves generates a plurality of samples indicative of the convolution of the first and second surface acoustic waves. The convolver also includes a pair of acoustic horns, one disposed between the segmented summing bus and each of the interdigital transducers and a ground bus having a plurality of filler segments extending intermediate the fingers of the segmented summing bus.
