Macromodeling of interconnect networks from frequency domain data using the Loewner Matrix approach

Recently, Loewner Matrix (LM) based methods were introduced for generating time-domain macromodels based on frequency domain measured parameters. These methods were shown to be very efficient and accurate for systems with a very large number of ports, however they were not suitable for distributed transmission line networks. In this paper, an LM based approach is proposed for modeling distributed networks. The new method was shown to be efficient and accurate for large-scale distributed networks.
