Abstract :
This paper presents an original study on the applicability of the generalized least-squares method in electron device parameter extraction. A comparison, done by using real and simulated data, proves that by applying the generalized method together with an appropriate weighting model one can obtain better parameter deviations, compared to the conventional least-squares method
