Provided is a method for compensating performance degradation of a radio
frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) using an EM simulation. The method
includes the steps of: (a) extracting the design specifications of the
RFIC so as design and simulate a circuit; (b) designing the layout of the
designed and simulated circuit, and extracting layout parameters by using
the designed layout; (c) simplifying the layout and carrying out the EM
simulation to extract performance parameters; (d) carrying out a circuit
simulation by using the extracted layout parameters and performance
parameters, and judging whether the results of the circuit simulation
satisfy the design specifications of the RFIC or not; (e) when it is
judged that the results of the circuit simulation satisfy the design
specifications of the RFIC, performing a circuit manufacturing process;
and (f) when it is not judged that the results of the circuit simulation
satisfy the design specifications of the RFIC, partially removing the
layout, and carrying out the EM simulation, thereby analyzing and
compensating a performance degradation region.
