Air standard cycles are conceived to permit thermodynamic calculations using the well-known and readily available thermodynamic properties of air. The results of such calculations may be used to predict compression ratio, specific heat ratio, and other operating parameters effects on thermal efficiency of a number of heat engines such as the Otto Cycle Heat Engine , the Diesel Cycle Heat Engine, and the Brayton Cycle Heat Engine.

Air standard cycles are idealized cycles that use ideal gas. The actual cycle is very sensitive

What are the Assumptions of air-standard cycles?

The air standard cycle assumes that the process can be modeled as a closed flow system (Rankine cycle boiler or air conditioner), even for an open flow ( gas powered internal combustion motor, turbine, or turbo jet). The only other assumption that is commonly made in entry level thermodynamics courses is that the air mixture inside of the the device can be modeled as an ideal gas. Any further assumptions would be based off the devices used in the cycle, such as nozzles, turbines and well you get the picture. Also note that because you are using an ideal gas for an air standard cycle, you can use all assumptions of a cold air standard, where heat capacities are assumed to be constant.

Which has highest air standard efficiency carnot cycle or sterling cycle?

Theoretically, both cycles have the same efficiency: 1-Tc/Th, where Tc is the temperature at which heat is dissipated and Th is the temperature at which heat is added.
