Coupling of PEEC models with transmission line models for simulation of wiring structures

In order to reduce the cost for the creation and simulation of partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) models it is beneficial to describe sections, that fulfil the requirements for the transmission line equations (2D models) with transmission line (TL) models and couple them to the pure 3D PEEC models for the other parts. In this paper the coupling of PEEC models to the homogeneous TL model is demonstrated. Different discontinuities and nonuniformities are studied.
