Abstract :
A novel, accurate and efficient equivalent circuit trained artificial neural-network (EC-ANN) model, which inherits and develops the advantages of EC and EM-ANN models, has been developed for coplanar waveguide (CPW) discontinuities. Modeled discontinuities for which the validation tests are performed include: CPW open stub; gap; air-bridge. These models allow for circuit design, simulation, and optimization within a CAD simulator.
