Popis: Loewner matrix (LM) interpolation-based macromodeling methods can generate an accurate macromodel for large and complex structures. However, there is less flexibility in the choice of the macromodel order due to the need to ensure passivity. In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to obtain a reduced order model based on LM interpolation while still maintaining the passivity of the macromodel. This is achieved by first relaxing the passivity requirement during the order selection process; then a new passivity enforcement scheme with significantly improved speed and convergence properties is applied. The proposed approach results in a significantly reduced macromodel size while maintaining accuracy and passivity conditions. The efficiency of the new approach is shown in the examples.
