Aspects of nanoscale information transmission in nanonetworks-based molecular communication

Abstract

This paper investigates the aspects of nanoscale information transmission based on ligand-receptor interactions in nanonetworks-based mobile molecular communication. Accordingly, the molecular communication means enables nanomachines to interconnect with another nanomachine in the nanonetwork. Analogous to intercellular communication, the communication in the proposed nanonetwork is performed by collision and adhesion procedures as well as nanoscale information is transported by implementing ligand-receptor interactions-based neural communication. The envisaged ligand-receptor interactions enables us to optimize the parameters for nanonetworks design. The key performance indicators (KPIs) of the proposed nanonetwork in terms of average delay delivery, throughput and tolerant traffic rate are evaluated. The results of our work will allow for implementing more realistic nanonetwork-based nanomedical applications.
