Numerical techniques for extracting geometrically parameterized reduced order interconnect models from full-wave electromagnetic analysis

In this paper we give a fairly abstract description of a projection approach for generating geometrically parameterized reduced-order models directly from the numerical solution of Maxwell's equations. The method is without much justification, so a spiral inductor example is given to motivate further study.
