Phononic crystals (PnCs) have garnered significant interest owing to their ability manipulate wave propagation, particularly through phononic band gaps and defect modes. However, conventional defective PnCs are limited by fixed defect-band frequencies, which restricts adaptability dynamic environments. This study introduces a novel approach for temperature-controlled tunability of integrating shape memory alloys (SMAs) into regions. The reversible phase transformations SMAs, driven temperature variations, induce changes in mechanical properties, enabling real-time adjustment frequencies. An analytical model is developed predict the relationship between temperature-modulated material properties shifts, validated numerical simulations. results demonstrate that frequencies can be dynamically controlled within specified range, thereby enhancing operational bandwidth ultrasonic sensors. Additionally, sensing-performance analysis confirms while shift with temperature, output voltage sensors remains stable, ensuring reliable sensitivity across varying conditions. represents advancement tunable PnC technology, paving way next-generation enhanced reliability complex
