Abstract
A (1-3) piezoelectric composite with a new geometry has been studied. The composite has ceramic bars with different cross sections. The selection of the bars´ width-to-thickness ratio is made using the coupling mode theory. The resonant frequency dispersion of the different bars produces an enlargement of the acoustic bandwidth of about a 30% without losing sensitivity. The composite is modeled by a parallel connection of equivalent circuits
