Abstract

Nowadays, optical network-on-chip is accepted as a promising alternative solution for traditional electrical interconnects due to lower transmission delay and power consumption as well as considerable high data bandwidth. However, silicon photonics struggles with some particular challenges that threaten the reliability of the data transmission process. The most important challenges can be considered as temperature fluctuation, process variation, aging, crosstalk noise, and insertion loss. Although several attempts have been made to investigate the effect of these issues on the reliability of optical network-on-chip, none of them modeled the reliability of photonic network-on-chip in a system-level approach based on basic element failure rate. In this paper, an analytical model-based simulator, called Reliability Assessment of Photonic Network-on-Chips (RAP-NoC), is proposed to evaluate the reliability of different 2D optical network-on-chip architectures and data traffic. The experimental results show that, in general, Mesh topology is more reliable than Torus considering the same size. Increasing the reliability of Microring Resonator (MR) has a more significant impact on the reliability of an optical router rather than a network.
光子片上网络的可靠性评估,仿真器
目前,由于具有较低的传输延迟和功耗以及相当高的数据带宽,光片上网络被认为是传统电气互连的一种有前途的替代方案。然而,硅光子学面临着一些特殊的挑战,这些挑战威胁着数据传输过程的可靠性。最重要的挑战是温度波动、工艺变化、老化、串扰噪声和插入损耗。尽管已经进行了几次尝试来研究这些问题对光片上网络可靠性的影响,但都没有在基于基本元件故障率的系统级方法中对光子片上网络的可靠性进行建模。本文提出了一种基于分析模型的模拟器,称为光子片上网络可靠性评估(RAP-NoC),用于评估不同二维光片上网络架构和数据流量的可靠性。实验结果表明,在相同尺寸的情况下,Mesh拓扑总体上比Torus拓扑更可靠。提高微环谐振器(MR)的可靠性对光路由器的可靠性影响比对网络的可靠性影响更大。
