concluded that the synthesized capacitance model gives much better approxirnation to the exa,ct value than the conveiitiorial area fraction model. This can be attributed to the fa.ct that the synthesized capa,cit,aiicemodel approximates well the physical nature of the electromagnetic field in the pyramid.
