Abstract
In this paper, an experimental circuit model for an accurate high-frequency characterization of transmission line is proposed. Inherent resonance effects during measurements make it difficult to determine characteristic impedance and propagation constant at the resonance frequencies corresponding to the line length. Thus, resonance-effect-free transmission line parameter determination technique based on the physical insight and theory is proposed. Then, by using the parameters high-frequency circuit model is proposed for high-speed signal propagation characterization. The proposed frequency-variant transmission line model is verified with measurement and it can be usefully exploited in high-speed signal propagation characterization.
