Abstract
Touchable communication (TouchComm), a novel communication scheme in nanoscale or molecular communication areas has been proposed recently. It is focused on the controllable and trackable properties of message carriers. A potential therapeutic application of TouchComm is the targeted delivery of drugs which utilizes physically transient nanobots as vehicles to deliver drug particles. Based on the same scenario, a searching scheme called touchable computation (TouchComp) has also been proposed to guide the nanobots to accurately locate the tumor in a vascular network environment without any precise information about the tumor location. Previous work on those two topics has provided basic channel model and searching strategy, which need experiment to verify the practicability of their theoretical work. This paper describes the experimental validation scenarios and shows some experimental results on the targeting efficiency of magnetic nanobots by TouchComm or TouchComp.
