Abstract

Methods, systems and media for simulating or analyzing voltage drops in a power distribution network can use an iterative approach to define a portion of a design around a victim to capture a sufficient collection of aggressors that cause appreciable voltage drop on the victim. This approach can be both computationally efficient and accurate and can limit the size of the data used in simulating dynamic voltage drops in the power distribution network.
