As the key component of wireless network-on-chip (WiNoC), wireless router is required to handle a large number of data packets which could cause network congestion. The congestion not only reduces the network performance, but also results in additional power consumption. In this paper, a low-power WiNoC with congestion-aware wireless node is proposed. Firstly, flit counter unit and address resolution unit are added in wireless interface (WI), which can sense the congestion information and destination address information of each wireless node dynamically. Secondly, through the proposed congestion judgment algorithm, the congestion judgment unit in global network can judge the priority of each wireless node pair and set the highest-priority wireless node pair to use the channel resources preferentially. The mechanism can effectively alleviate the congestion of wireless nodes and ensure the stability of system performance. In addition, a sleep mechanism is utilized to switch off WI which fails in the wireless channel competition. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can effectively improve the performance in terms of packets' transmission latency and network throughput. |
