Wideband and efficient interconnects using multi-segmented grounded and opened lines

Two new interconnect structures called mnltisegmented S-G-S (Signal-Ground-Signal) and S-0-S (Signal-Open-Signal) interconnects are introduced and designed to get to wideband and efficient performance. In these interconnect structures a grounded or opened line is inserted between two signal lines. Each grounded and opened line contains several segments. The performances of these two interconnects are studied and compared.
