Comparative Analysis of Round Robin Arbiter and Weighted Round Robin Arbiter

The escalating complexity of hardware systems, particularly with the advent of Network-on-Chip (NoC) and System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, has underscored the significance of arbiters in managing resource contention among multiple processors. Arbiters serve as pivotal hardware entities for resolving conflicts and determining access priorities. This paper conducts a detailed comparative analysis between two prominent arbiter designs: the Round Robin Arbiter
^[1]
and the Weighted Round Robin Arbiter
^[2].
By scrutinizing their respective merits and limitations, this study aims to provide insights into optimizing arbitration mechanisms for enhanced system performance and resource utilization
