In this paper, crosstalk between multiconductor transmission lines of finite length in arbitrary directions on a printed circuit board is studied by using a circuit-concept approach. The circuit-concept approach of (2+1) finite-length lines is expanded for the crosstalk calculation of (n+1) lines where n>2.2n-port network expression is derived from the modified telegrapher equations. The effect of via currents flowing through the vertical short line sections at the line terminals is also investigated. Due to this expansion the derived equations for (n+1) lines are expected to be easily applied for crosstalk analysis of a variety of complex structures such as via fences and guard traces, etc.
