The fluid channel imposes extra delay on the communication, and the receiver decodes the encoded information by solely utilizing the molecular arrival times. In this paper, simple receiver models based on maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) are investigated. Furthermore, upper and lower bounds on the capacity of AIGN communication channel with molecular diversity are derived.pdfEngineeringScience and technologyConference proceeding1938-1883https://doi.org/10.1109/ICC.2016.7511446390993204133N/ANOIR00381
