How to calculate the transient thermal impedance at short pulse width, which is not included in the datasheet

Transient thermal impedance at short pulse width is approximately calculated by the following formula.

How to calculate the transient thermal impedance at short pulse width, which is not included in the datasheet

tw1 : Pulse width of required Zth(tw1)
tw2 : Minimum pulse width in datasheet
Zth(tw1) :Zth(Transient thermal impedance )at tw1
Zth(tw2) : Zth(Transient thermal impedance )at tw2

When the pulse width becomes too short, it is difficult to calculate the value accurately.
