Abstract

Molecular communication is a bio-inspired paradigm, proposed to communicate nanomachines via diffusion of molecules through an aqueous medium. The type and structure of the molecules to be propagated bear great importance since they directly affect the modulation structure of molecular communication. We propose a messenger-based molecular communication model where information is encoded on the atoms of polyethylene molecules in the form of CH3(CHX)(n)CH2F, where X is either an H or F atom, representing 0 and 1 bits, respectively. The encoded polyethylene molecules are released from the transmitter nanomachine, and their propagation towards the receiver is modelled as a Brownian Motion. Using an erasure channel model, our analysis focuses on calculating the capacity of this channel and revealing the parameters affecting it such as molecule size and number of redundant molecules for one transmission.
