 | Abstract:
Molecular communication is transmitting and receiving chemical signals using molecules and is an interdisciplinary field between nanotechnology, biology, and communication. Molecular communication can be used for connecting bio-nano things. The connected nano-things build a nano-network. Transport mechanisms in molecular communication include free diffusion, gap junction channels, molecular motors, self-propelling microorganisms like bacteria and random collision of mobile nano-things. Free diffusion is the most widely used transport mechanism in the literature. Brownian motion is always available and its energy consumption is zero. This paper explores the therapeutic applications of rate control in the Internet of Bio-Nano Things and reviews the recent trends and advancements in the field of molecular communication. These methods aim to guarantee the desired rate of drug molecules at the target site and overcome the side effects of excessive emission. |
