This model is used for routing waveguides that have back annotation with third party tools. The geometry-specific waveguide properties (including neff, ng, loss, and dispersion) of a routing waveguide are communicated between a third party tool (where the waveguide geometry is defined in layout) and the compact model in INTERCONNECT.
