Pehr,
You can find a description or the modal aspects of crosstalk in chapter 11 of
Eric Bogatin's book.
I always think of FEXT in terms of modes. In a lossless microstrip, when you
put a pulse on one line next a quiet line, at the far end of the quiet line you
get a short negative going pulse. This pulse is defined by the velocity
differences of the odd and even modes. The first negative excursion represents
the arrival of the odd mode component. This will continue to go negative until
the arrival of the even mode component when it will begin to go positive till
it returns to the 0 level. The odd mode arrives earlier because there is more
air in the cross-section that the fields are exposed to; the even mode see less
air and consequently sees a higher effective dielectric constant. Since all of
the modes in a lossless stripline see the same effective dielectric constant,
they all travel at the same velocity and arrive at the same time.

Thanks Wolfgang!
How accurate are the equations that are used for crosstalk analysis and that
are based on circuit analysis?
For example with those equations we cannot explain why FEXT = 0 in striplines
(theoretically) What are other alternatives, I have read that modal analysis
could be used to accurately model crosstalk, but I couldn't find any
explanation what it is.
Best regards, Pehr
