Hi Liu,
Xtalk analysis is very different for microstrip and stripline cases, and it
also depends what xtalk you are talking about such as FEXT or NEXT.

For stripline, there is no FEXT, and NEXT proportional to Cm/C. So in this
case, lower Er, to keep the same impedance, H will be decreased, so Cm/C
will be smaller.

For microstrip case, FEXT is proportional to Cm/C-Lm/L, and NEXT is
proportional to Cm/C+Lm/L. In your case, Lm/L is becoming larger (Lm is not
changing, L is decreased due to smaller H), Cm/C may be smaller, then FEXT
will become larger due to lower Er.
