Reaction analysis in stripline circuits

In this paper, a full-wave layered-interconnect simulator (UA-FWLIS), which is capable of simulating EM effects in packaging-interconnect problems, is introduced. Standard integral-equation-based Method of Moment (MoM) techni ques are employed in UA-FWLIS. However, instead of using, standard time-con suming numerical integration techniques, we have analytically evaluated the MoM reaction elements, thereby greatly improving the computational efficie ncy of the simulator. This paper illustrates the application of the simulat or by employing it in the studies of coupling in a stripline structure and S-parameters for an interconnect.
