Bert,
Thank you so much
After studying document you indicated,
1. It seems only one vias (-90dB) with symmetric configuration is better than 
multi vias (-55dB) with symmetric configuration under 10Ghz frequency. How 
about above 10Ghz frequency range? Is it the same trend?
2. The lowest coupling with two GND layer means that it had better to remove 
pad at other GND planes. Is it true or not? Do anyone do this kind of 
simulation?
Lee
