What is Multiband RF-interconnect for reconfigurable network-on-chip communications about?

One of the key benefits of the scaling of CMOS is that the switching speed of the transistor improves over each technology generation. According to ITRS, f T and f max , will be 600GHz and 1 THz, respectively, in 16nm CMOS technology. With the advance in CMOS mm-wave circuits, hundreds of GHz bandwidth will be available in the near future. In addition, compared with CMOS repeaters charging and discharging the wire, EM waves travel in a guided medium at the speed of light which is about 10ps/mm on silicon substrate. The question here is: How can we utilize over hundreds of GHz of bandwidth in a future mobile system through RF-I while concurrently achieving ultra-low power operation and dynamic allocation in bandwidth to meet future Network-on-Chip needs?
