Abstract

We present a new methodology to develop physics-based models for passive components. We coherently integrate full-wave EM simulations, artificial neural networks, multivariable rational functions, dimensional analysis and frequency mapping. We consider frequency-independent and frequency-dependent models. Various examples include a microstrip right angle bend and a CPW short-circuit stub.
