Summary: 
A new hybrid method for characterizing the irregular power/ground plane pair is developed in this paper by combining the conventional eigen-mode expansion method with the new-presented inverted composition method and a simple model order reduction. By the approach, the eigen-mode expansion method can be extended to the characteristics research of the power/ground plane pair with holes. In this gridless method, ports and decoupling capacitors can be arbitrarily placed on the plane pair. The numerical example demonstrates its good validity.
