A common technique to reduce crosstalk between microstrip lines consists of using via fences or guard traces. However, via fences may significantly increase the amount of reflections at the signaling microstrip lines. We propose an EMbased design optimization method to achieve reduction of crosstalk and transmission losses by the use of via fences without a significant deterioration of impedance matching at the signaling microstrip lines. Our method exploits surrogate models using polynomial-based functional interpolants. We start from a zero-order model that is as simple as a fixed EM model response. This zero-order model is enhanced by multidimensional polynomial interpolants around a reference base point in the design space. The polynomial approximation is a function of the design variables, and it is used to interpolate highly accurate EM responses in a region of interest around the selected base point. Global optimum values for the surrogate model weighting factors are efficiently obtained in closed form. By optimizing the surrogate model, we efficiently find an optimal performance for the microstrip lines with via fences. Index Terms — Crosstalk, microstripITESO, A.C.
