Scalable Hybrid Wireless Network-on-Chip Architectures for Multicore Systems (2011, neutral): “On-chip wireless interconnects were demonstrated first in [23] for distributing clock signals.”
The last barrier: on-chip antennas (2013, background): “For example, clock distribution in SoC implementations can benefit from wireless intrachip communication [51], whereas vertically integrated chips in SiP or system-on-package (SoP) can employ wireless interchip communication [52].”
