Abstract
Abstract. A Network model of an ultra-wide band, intra-chip wireless link is presented. Numerical data of Z-parameters, obtained from full wave simulation of the structure, are used to obtain a rational function representation via the Vector Fitting procedure. Brune's circuit synthesis is applied to generate the network model from rational functions.

Today CMOS technology allows to realize monolithic integrated front-ends for wireless communication links up to millimeterwave frequencies
Network models of the communication links generated from electromagnetic full-wave simulation data are a valuable tool for circuit and system design
In this work we describe the systematic generation of a lumped element network model of an intra-chip wireless communication link formed by integrated antennas
Summary
Today CMOS technology allows to realize monolithic integrated front-ends for wireless communication links up to millimeterwave frequencies. Network models of the communication links generated from electromagnetic full-wave simulation data are a valuable tool for circuit and system design. In this work we describe the systematic generation of a lumped element network model of an intra-chip wireless communication link formed by integrated antennas. To save chip area the antenna electrodes are used as the ground planes of the integrated circuitry operating in a frequency band below the carrier frequency of the wireless link.
