Abstract

Higher integration and smaller layout size, two major trends in today’s industry, lead to more prominent parasitic electromagnetic coupling effects in high frequency communication systems. Using network theory concepts and de-embedding techniques, this paper presented a fast and efficient method to compute such coupling in microwave integrated circuits, making the design more reliable. The efficiency of the new technique is demonstrated through examples of circuit simulations.
