An efficient wavelet-based nonlinear circuit simulation technique with model order reduction

摘要

This paper proposes further improvement to a novel method for the analysis and simulation of ICs recently proposed by the authors. The circuits are assumed to be subjected to input signals that have widely separated rates of variation, e.g. in communication systems an RF carrier modulated by a low-frequency information signal. The previously proposed technique enables the reuse of the results obtained using a lower-order accuracy model to calculate a response of higher-order accuracy model. In this paper, the efficiency of this method is further improved by using a nonlinear model order reduction technique. Results highlight the efficiency of the proposed approach.
