Spatiotemporal distribution and modulation schemes for concentration-encoded medium-to-long range molecular communication

Spatiotemporal distribution and modulation schemes suitable for medium-to-long range molecular communication and networks have been investigated in this paper. This research has basically focused on bio-inspired transmission techniques for concentration-encoded nanoscale molecular communication system. Spatiotemporal distribution of a carrier signal in the form of concentration of diffused molecules and diffusion-dependent ranges are explained. Finally, the performance of modulation schemes has been evaluated in the form of steady state loss of amplitude of received concentration signals and its dependence to transmitter-receiver distance.
