Rapid approximation of the transient response of high-speed global interconnects is needed to estimate the time delay, crosstalk, and overshoot in a GSI multilevel wiring network. This paper outlines a rigorous and physical solution for transients in a capacitively-loaded distributed rlc interconnect using a convergent series of modified Bessel functions. Compact models for time delay and repeater insertion are derived. The single-line model is extended to evaluate crosstalk in two-coupled
