As Russell has stated, there is pretty much no way to create a twisted
pair model from EM field solvers that will correlate with measurement.
There are so many variations in the manufacture of cable and repetitive
variations due to the process, that it truly takes measurement to
determine the actual cable behavior. in our work we have used VNA and
TDR measurment based modeling approaches to create cable models. I
would suggest an approach using a TDR and TDA Systems iConnect, or an
approach using a VNA with a sweep range from the 100 kHz to 1 GHz range
and s-parameter modeling. (HSPICE now does a reasonably good job of
using Touchstone S-parameters in time domain simulation ... although it
is slow)
regards,
scott
