Abstract

Although the concept of engineered molecular communication has been around for quite some time, practical approaches with truly biocompatible setups are still scarce. However, molecular communication has a large potential in future medical applications and may be a solution to size constraints of antenna-based transmission systems. In this work, we therefore present a testbed using biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles. Based on previous work, all testbed components have been improved regarding performance and size, making a large step forward regarding miniaturisation and a data transmission approach. In addition, a setup for localised two-dimensional sensing of magnetic nanoparticles is presented. All improvements are evaluated individually and combined to achieve a net data rate of more than

$\mathrm {6~ \text {bit} / \text {s}}$

, significantly higher than any other comparable biocompatible setup.

磁性纳米粒子分子通讯生物相容性试验台的研制

尽管工程分子通信的概念已经存在了很长一段时间，但真正具有生物相容性的实用方法仍然很少。然而，分子通信在未来的医学应用中具有很大的潜力，并且可能是基于天线的传输系统的尺寸限制的解决方案。因此，在这项工作中，我们提出了一个使用生物相容性磁性纳米颗粒的试验台。在先前工作的基础上，所有试验台组件的性能和尺寸都得到了改进，在小型化和数据传输方法方面迈出了一大步。此外，还提出了一种磁性纳米颗粒的局部二维传感装置。对所有改进进行单独评估并组合，以实现超过$\mathrm｛6~\text｛bit｝/\text｛s｝｝$的净数据率，显著高于任何其他可比的生物相容性设置。

期刊介绍： As a result of recent advances in MEMS/NEMS and systems biology, as well as the emergence of synthetic bacteria and lab/process-on-a-chip techniques, it is now possible to design chemical “circuits”, custom organisms, micro/nanoscale swarms of devices, and a host of other new systems. This success opens up a new frontier for interdisciplinary communications techniques using chemistry, biology, and other principles that have not been considered in the communications literature. The IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications (T-MBMSC) is devoted to the principles, design, and analysis of communication systems that use physics beyond classical electromagnetism. This includes molecular, quantum, and other physical, chemical and biological techniques; as well as new communication techniques at small scales or across multiple scales (e.g., nano to micro to macro; note that strictly nanoscale systems, 1-100 nm, are outside the scope of this journal). Original research articles on one or more of the following topics are within scope: mathematical modeling, information/communication and network theoretic analysis, standardization and industrial applications, and analytical or experimental studies on communication processes or networks in biology. Contributions on related topics may also be considered for publication. Contributions from researchers outside the IEEE’s typical audience are encouraged.
