Electromagnetic and Circuit Modelling of Multiconductor Transmission Lines (Oxford Engineering Science Series)

By Daniel De Zutter, Niels Faché, Frank Olyslager

Multiconductor transmission lines form the basic building blocks of microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuits, and are omnipresent in digital systems. This book gives a detailed account of the way in which self-consistent computer-aided-design circuit models for such coupled lines, carrying either TEM or hybrid modes, can be obtained from a full-wave solution of Maxwell's equations. Latest advances for lossy lines are covered. The book also details the full-wave integral equation solution for basic transmission structures on MMICs, PCBs, and multiwire and microwire boards with the method of moments. For thin coupled microstrips and striplines the proposed space domain solution offers an alternative to the classical spectral domain approach. This book is the first to handle the full-wave analysis of discrete wire structures and of lossy polygonal conductors. The book is sure to appeal to a wide range of electrical and electronics engineers.
