We study the noncoherent transport due to electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction in graphene nanoribbon (GNR) field-effect transistors (GNRFETs) using nonequilibrium Green's function method in mode space. Phonon dispersion calculations in conjunctionwith the e-ph interaction computations show that in an armchair GNR, only a small number of phonon modes are coupled to the carriers. Our simulation shows that under a threshold gate voltage, the drain-source current is diminished by the low-energy phonons such as acoustic phonon modes and radial-breathing-like phonon modes, while at great biases of the gate, the current drop is essentially due to highenergy optical phononmodes. The effect of drain voltage on scattering process is discussed, which shows that at higher drain voltages, the ballisticity decreases. We also explore the phonon scattering dependence on the dimensions of GNRFET channel. In larger width ribbon, the impact of phonon scattering decreases. The channel with a length of 30 nm is ballistic up to 90%, and only when its length is increased to approximately 180 nm, transport becomes semiballistic, which infers to an effective mean free path of similar to 200 nm.
