Abstract :
This paper describes a systematic algorithm for obtaining passive time domain reduced order transmission line macromodels. The proposed algorithm makes use of a new order reduction technique that removes the redundant poles obtained using conventional order reduction methods. The reduced macromodel is passive by construction
