PEEC modeling of linear magnetic materials

Abstract

This paper presents a 3D electromagnetic mod- eling technique that extends the PEEC approach to an- alyze arbitrary inhomogeneous structures constituted by conductors, dielectrics and magnetic materials. The proposed approach, while preserving the topology of PEEC elementary circuit, allows to use the PEEC method to model more general materials (e.g. chiral media, metamaterials) and extends its applicability to power systems involving magnetic materials as well as to RFIC systems requiring modeling of both dielectric and magnetic materials.
