Multi-carrier spread-spectrum transceiver for WiNoC
Joel Ortiz, Olivier Sentieys, Christian Roland, Cédric Killian · 2019
In this paper, we propose a low-power, high-speed, multi-carrier reconfigurable transceiver based on Frequency Division Multiplexing to ensure data transfer in future Wireless NoCs. The proposed transceiver supports a medium access control method to sustain unicast, broadcast and multicast communication patterns, providing dynamic data exchange among wireless nodes. The proposed transceiver designed using a 28-nm FDSOI technology consumes only 2.37 mW and 4.82 mW in unicast/broadcast and multicast modes, respectively, with an area footprint of 0.0138 mm2.
