9. method for sensing as claimed in claim 6, which is characterized in that in step 4), surface acoustic wave sensor and tested pair The inner material or physical environment of elephant interact, specifically includes the following steps:
A) electric signal from passive type ultrasonic transducer is converted to acoustical signal and passed on the surface of piezoelectric substrate by interdigital electrode It broadcasts;
B) it is located at the sensitive layer of piezoelectric substrate performance and the substance inside measurand or physical environment interacts, causes sensitivity Physical characteristic of layer itself changes;
C) physical characteristic of sensitive layer, which changes, causes the velocity of wave of acoustical signal or resonant frequency that corresponding quantitative variation occurs.
10. method for sensing as claimed in claim 6, which is characterized in that in step 5), surface acoustic wave sensor is by acoustical signal Electric signal transmission is converted into passive type ultrasonic transducer, specifically includes the following steps:
A) when interdigital electrode is arranged in the both ends for being located at sensitive layer in piezoelectric substrate, the variation of velocity of wave in acoustical signal is detected; When interdigital electrode is arranged in the centre of piezoelectric substrate, the variation of resonant frequency in acoustical signal is detected, to take in acoustical signal With measurand internal information;
B) acoustical signal for carrying measurand internal information is converted to electric signal by piezoelectric substrate, is transmitted to passive type ultrasound and is changed It can device.
