Abstract
A parameter extraction technique for an electrical structure is based on a definition of network parameters that isolates pure mode responses of the electrical structure, and that makes mode conversion responses of the electrical structure negligible. A set of network parameters is obtained that represents pure mode responses for the electrical structure (410). These network parameters are processed to obtain model parameters that characterize each pure mode response (422, 424, 426, 428, 432, 434, 436, 438). Preferably, the mode specific parameters to combined to obtain mode independent parameters, such as coupling factor, propagation constant, and characteristic impedance values (440, 450).
