In this paper, we propose dual-channel access mechanism to design cost-effective NoC based on 2D-mesh topology. Compared with traditional single-channel access mechanism, our scheme greatly increases the throughput and cuts down the average latency with reasonable implementation cost, especially when the traffic load is high.
