Abstract

This paper presents an extension of highorder moment-matching model order reduction to frequencydependent impedance boundary conditions. Such boundary conditions are essential for accurately and efficiently modeling conductors at high frequency, where skin effect is significant. These boundary conditions involve complicated transcendental functions, whereas previous MOR methods assume polynomial dependence. Automatic differentiation is used to easily and accurately calculate the higher derivatives of such functions. Substantial improvement is shown, not only compared to discrete frequency sweeps, but also compared to non-momentmatching S matrix interpolation.
