  • Abstract
    An efficient and accurate model accounting for the skin and proximity effect is proposed in this paper, and a novel parameter extraction method, based on empirical formulas and measured data, is given subsequently. Several standard coplanar waveguides (CPWs) of different lengths are fabricated in GaAs technology. The per-unit-length (p.u.l.) L, C and S-parameters are compared. Up to 67GHz, the proposed model is in better agreement with the measured data than the simulated results.
