Abstract :
For the first time, a CAD-oriented analytical formula for the evaluation of the quasi-static coupling characteristics between parallel coplanar lines is presented. The analysis is based on a sequence of conformal transformations, and the derived expressions show excellent accuracy compared to the results generated by a spectral domain approach
