Development of very high speed integrated circuits is currently of great interests for today’s technologies. This paper presents the quasi-TEM approach for the accurate parameters extraction of multiconductor transmission lines interconnect in four-layered dielectric region using the finite element method (FEM). We illustrate that FEM is accurate and effective for modeling multilayered multicon...

A neural network approach is proposed for the characterization of twisted wire bundles multiconductor transmission lines. The neural network is suitably trained with few cross section configurations to learn the behavior of the per unit length parameters of the nonuniform bundle. The procedure allows a fast characterization of the nonuniform bundles multiconductor transmission lines.

This paper presents a study of modeling and simulation of the lossless and lossy multiconductor transmission lines in frequency domain. This study is based on a characteristics method, which permits modeling the line as a quadripole whose advantage is not to presuppose applied charge conditions in its extreme. This permits it to be introduced easily in the circuit simulators such as Spice, Esac...

In this study an efficient approach is presented for the transient simulation of lossy, frequency-dependent multiconductor transmission lines. The method is based on the approximation of the modal scattering parameters of the system. Rational function approximation and recursive convolution are used to generate the time-domain stamps of the multiconductor system

This paper investigates a measurement method that characterizes lossy printed multiconductor transmission lines, its accuracy, the choice of measurement representations, and some simple approximations. We illustrate the method with measurements of a pair of lossy coupled asymmetric microstrip lines.

The demand for computer simulation of multiconductor interconnections in VLSI structures necessitates that such structures should be modelled. Calculations of the model capacitance matrix from measurements, for the multiconductor transmission lines which are coupled interconnections in a VLSI structures, using the "two-terminal" capacitances indirect measurement procedure is strongly corrupted ...

This paper examines modal cross power in electromagnetic transmission lines. It shows that the cross powers of nearly degenerate modes may be large in quasi-TEM multiconductor transmission lines typical of modern electronic circuits at moderate and low microwave frequencies. The paper develops simple expressions to estimate the magnitude of these cross powers from the “power-normalized” conduct...
