Communication between on-chip cores is a challenging issue for high-performance network-on-chip (NoC) design. Wireless NoC (WiNoC) represents an alternative design for planar wired interconnects, aiming to reduce latency and improve bandwidth. In this paper, a novel on-chip fractal antenna is designed and characterized. In order to disseminate interference affecting NoC performance in order to enhance on-chip quality of service (QoS), a set of exclusive sub-channels are assigned to each antenna. The proposed antenna has two wide bands (bi-WB)-B1 and B2, of (63-78) GHz and (101-157) GHz, respectively. The multi-band antenna allows different channel allocations for on-chip core communications. This WiNoC design exhibits improved performance, due to its enhanced antenna bandwidth and the benefit provided by the developed algorithm that can scan and compare to assign the best (upload or download) sub-channels to each antenna.
对于高性能片上网络(NoC)设计而言,片上核心之间的通信是一个具有挑战性的问题。无线片上网络(WiNoC)是平面有线互连的一种替代设计,旨在减少延迟并提高带宽。本文设计并表征了一种新型片上分形天线。为了传播影响NoC性能的干扰以提高片上服务质量(QoS),为每个天线分配了一组专用子信道。所提出的天线有两个宽带(双宽带)——B1和B2,分别为(63 - 78)GHz和(101 - 157)GHz。多频段天线允许为片上核心通信进行不同的信道分配。这种WiNoC设计表现出了更好的性能,这得益于其增强的天线带宽以及所开发算法带来的优势,该算法可以进行扫描和比较,为每个天线分配最佳(上传或下载)子信道。
