Abstract :
A closed-form model for experiment based stopping distance is developed to calculate accurately conductor loss of CPW. The present improved Holloway and Kuester model has average accuracy of 3.7% against the experimental results from different sources in the frequency range 1 GHz - 60 GHz with conductor thickness 0.25 μm - 1.58 μm. The original Holloway and Kuester model has average accuracy of 13.7% and model of Ponchak et al. 17.1 % against same set of experimental results.
