Abstract
The coupling effects of two closely placed coplanar spiral inductors are investigated using the FDTD method. Different configurations of two inductors are simulated and the simulation results are compared with measurements. The investigations show an unexpected high impact of the orientation of the coils to the coupling of the two inductors.
