Abstract
Wireless network-on-chip (WNoC) has succeeded in dealing with alleviating the performance limitations of traditional wired-based networks-on-chip (NoC). In return of this, WNoC launches the opening of a modern network-on-chip (NoC) technique to higher scalability and architectural extensibility. Broadcast support, low latency, and system-level clearness make wireless on-chip communication a significant alternative method in network-on-chip design. In this work, a hybrid NoC, the combination of wired and wireless-based network-on-chip called wireless hybrid mesh of star (WHMS) is designed with a suitable topology and routing algorithm. Its performance in terms of throughput, latency, and energy at different workload has been explored using synthetic traffic pattern. Experimental results indicate a 67.64% improvement in latency and a 71.08% gain in throughput with 54.91% energy savings.
