To reduce the need for the receiver to have knowledge of the geometry of the medium, binary equilibrium signaling has recently been proposed for molecular communication with a passive receiver in bounded channels. In this approach, reversible chemical reactions are introduced at the transmitter and the receiver in order for the system to converge to a known equilibrium state. This provides a means of designing simple detection rules that only depend on the transmitted signal and the volume of the bounded fluid medium. In this paper, we introduce multi-level equilibrium signaling, which allows for higher data rates via higher order modulation. We show that for a wide range of conditions, with appropriate receiver optimization, multi-level equilibrium signaling can outperform conventional concentration shift keying schemes. As such, our approach provides a basis to improve data rates in molecular communications without the need to increase the complexity of the system by exploiting techniques such as multiple information-carrying molecules.","PeriodicalId":93611,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Nanoscale Computing and Communication : Virtual Conference, September 23-25, 2020 : NanoCom 2020.

These devices will have different Quality of Service (QoS) demands and resource constraints, such as mobility, hardware, and efficiency requirements. The THz band has a massive greenfield spectrum and is envisioned to cater to these dense-indoor deployments. However, THz has multiple caveats, such as high absorption rate, limited coverage range, low transmit power, sensitivity to mobility, and frequent outages, making it challenging to deploy. THz might compel networks to be dependent on additional infrastructure, which might not be profitable for network operators and can even result in inefficient resource utilization for devices demanding low to moderate data rates. Using distributed Device-to-Device (D2D) communication in the THz, we can cater to these ultra-dense low data rate type applications in a constrained resource situation. We propose a 2-Layered distributed D2D model, where devices use coordinated multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to maximize efficiency and user coverage for dense-indoor deployment. We explore the choice of features required to train the algorithms and how it impacts the system efficiency. We show that densification and mobility in a network can be used to further the limited coverage range of THz devices, without the need for extra infrastructure or resources.","PeriodicalId":93611,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Nanoscale Computing and Communication : Virtual Conference, September 23-25, 2020 : NanoCom 2020.

The availability of microbial biosensors, combined with the ability to genetically engineer biological circuits to process information, make microbes attractive bionanomachines for propagating information through molecular communication (MC) networks. However, MC networks built entirely of biological components suffer a number of limitations. They are extremely slow due to processing and propagation delays and must employ simple algorithms due to the still limited computational capabilities of biological circuits. In this work, we propose a hybrid bio-electronic framework which utilizes biological components for sensing but offloads processing and computation to traditional electronic systems and communication infrastructure. This is achieved by using tools from the burgeoning field of optogenetics to trigger biosensing through an optoelectronic interface, alleviating the need for computation and communication in the biological domain.","PeriodicalId":93611,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Nanoscale Computing and Communication : Virtual Conference, September 23-25, 2020 : NanoCom 2020.

These systems can also be used to enhance LoC applications with integrated droplet control information or for data transmission scenarios in the context of molecular communication. For both use-cases the detection and characterisation of droplets in small microfluidic channels is crucial. So far, only complex lab setups with restricted capabilities have been presented as detection devices. We present a new low-cost and portable droplet detector. The device is used to confidently distinguish between individual droplets in a droplet-based microfluidic system. Using on-off keying a 16-bit sequence is successfully transmitted for the first time with such a setup. Furthermore, the devices capabilities to characterise droplets regarding colour and size are demonstrated. Such an application of a spectral sensor in a microfluidic system presents new possibilities, such as colour-coded data transmission or analysis of droplet content.","PeriodicalId":93611,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Nanoscale Computing and Communication : Virtual Conference, September 23-25, 2020 : NanoCom 2020.
