Conventional wired Network-on-Chip (NoC) designs suffer from performance degradation due to multi-hop longdistance communication. To address such a problem, in the past decade, researchers have been focused on investigating Wireless NoC (WiNoC), which evolved as a viable solution to mitigate this communication bottleneck by using single-hop long-range wireless links. However, many researchers reported that these interconnects may suffer failure due to the complexity of implementation. Although few works in the literature tackle faults in WiNoC, none of them provides a comprehensive study related to channel access mechanisms in the presence of faults. To fill this gap, we propose a fault aware WiNoC architecture. We discuss two types of faults in wireless interconnects, namely, transceiver faults and token controller faults. We provide different faulttolerant techniques to deal with such faults. The proposed FTWiNoC presents, on average, 17.8% and 8.9% improvement in latency compared to two different fault mitigation strategies in the literature.
