35. Clock Synchronization for Mobile Molecular Communication in Nanonetworks

Abstract

Molecular communication (MC) is an emerging communication method using molecules or particles as signal carriers, which enables nanomachines to send messages at the nano- or micro-nano scale for information exchange and collaboration. Clock synchronization between nanomachines plays an important role in collaboration. The current researches on the synchronization between nanodevices mainly focus on fixed MC systems. However, the movement of nanodevices is widespread in MC systems. A simple but effective scheme for clock synchronization between mobile nanodevices in mobile MC systems based on diffusion is proposed. In an equivalent diffusion mobile MC system model, the number of molecules received by the receiver is related to the transmission time of molecules and the distance between transmitter and receiver at the moment that molecules are released. Based on the detected molecular information, the clock offset and the distance between mobile nanodevices in nanonetworks are estimated by the least-square method. By using different types of molecules, the challenge of the varying synthesis time of the molecule is overcome. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract

Molecular communication (MC) is a new communication paradigm where, opposite to radio or optical communication, the information flow is based on the molecules exchange and chemical interactions. Thanks to the high biological compatibility and nano-scale feasibility, MC is a promising communication technology for health applications, from disease detection to drug in-body delivery. Much attention has been paid to MC in the last decade in investigating the fundamentals of information theory applied to biochemical reactions, while considerations on security have been very limited. A closed-form expression of the secrecy capacity of a diffusion-based MC system is provided. This study is of primary importance to understand the security robustness of the MC paradigm. Through information-theoretical physical-layer security tools, numerical results are presented to study the dependence of the secrecy capacity on the average thermodynamic power, the eavesdropper’s distance, the transmit bandwidth, and the receiver radius. A secrecy map is also presented, which shows the secure and unsecure areas around the legitimate transmitter.

Abstract

High throughput microfluidic devices coupled with optical detection systems bring several advantages to study molecular communication (MC) by mimicking capillary vessels and arterioles. Motivated by this, we present an MC platform using fluorescence polystyrene (PS) beads as messenger molecules to transfer encoded information in microfluidic channels via flow induced diffusion. To this end, we couple multiple production and analysis techniques to construct and characterize our micro scale MC system. PS microbeads are introduced into microchannels via programmable syringe pumps serving as transmitters, while the received signal is recorded by inverted fluorescence microscope. Time lapsed images of microparticles are presented as they move across diffusion channels.

Abstract

Macroscale molecular communication (MC), which has a potential for practical applications, is a promising area for communication engineering. In a practical scenario such as monitoring air pollutants released from an unknown source, it is essential to estimate the location of the molecular transmitter (TX). This paper presents a novel Sensor Network-based Localization Algorithm (SNCLA) for passive transmission by using a novel experimental platform which mainly comprises a clustered sensor network (SN) with 24 sensor nodes and evaporating ethanol molecules as the passive TX. With the usage of the SN concept, novel methods can be developed for the problems in macroscale MC by utilizing the wide literature of sensor networks. In SNCLA, Gaussian plume model is employed to derive the location estimator. The parameters such as transmitted mass, wind velocity, detection time and actual concentration are calculated or estimated from the measured signals via the SN to be employed as the input for the location estimator. The numerical results show that the performance of SNCLA is better for stronger winds in the medium. Our findings show that evaporated molecules do not propagate homogeneously through the SN due to the presence of the wind. In addition, the estimation error of SNCLA decreases for higher detection threshold values.

Abstract

Binary concentration shift keying in molecular communication is a modulation technique that transforms binary information onto the concentration of molecules. Transmitter releases a pre-specified number of molecules into the environment according to the information it wishes to transmit to receiver. In this paper, we consider binary concentration shift keying in mobile molecular communication where a mobile receiver performs multiple measurements of molecule concentration to demodulate information that the transmitter transmits. Numerical experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of mobile molecular communication with the binary concentration shift keying with multiple measurements of molecule concentration in terms of achievable information transmission rate.

Abstract

The development of new synthetic biology frontiers has led to scenarios where the embodied information-processing capability of biological organisms are implanted, in minimalistic version, in liposome-based synthetic cells. These are cell-like systems of minimal complexity resembling biological cells. Although not yet alive, synthetic cells are useful for generating basic biological understanding, and can become interesting biotechnological tools. In 2012 we devised a research program aimed at the design and construction of synthetic cells capable of exchanging chemical signals with biological micro-organisms (in particular bacteria). Here we review the fundamental steps leading to this innovative research field and comment on the most relevant experimental results obtained by us and others.

Abstract

With a view towards molecular communication systems and molecular multi-agent systems, we propose the Chemical Baum-Welch Algorithm, a novel reaction network scheme that learns parameters for Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). Each reaction in our scheme changes only one molecule of one species to one molecule of another. The reverse change is also accessible but via a different set of enzymes, in a design reminiscent of futile cycles in biochemical pathways. We show that every fixed point of the Baum-Welch algorithm for HMMs is a fixed point of our reaction network scheme, and every positive fixed point of our scheme is a fixed point of the Baum-Welch algorithm. We prove that the “Expectation” step and the “Maximization” step of our reaction network separately converge exponentially fast. We simulate mass-action kinetics for our network on an example sequence, and show that it learns the same parameters for the HMM as the Baum-Welch algorithm.

Abstract

The design of reliable routing has become obligatory in case of wireless nano body sensor network. This chapter envisages the issues in reliable routing of green wireless nano body sensor network (GWNBSN). The concept of nano sensor network reduces the size of nodes and it is easy to implant inside the human body. The molecular communication realizes series of reliability issues during its communication with the nearby nodes. An unforeseen molecular burst or fast bloodstream could make the DNA molecules to be confused and misguided. A fail safe reliable routing is proposed which investigates the patient’s state and decides the mode of communication as molecular or electromagnetic. The network is made fault tolerant from lack of energy faults and intermittent faults by classifying the data packets based on the state of subject, and routing the packets by energy harvesting capabilities and terminal voltage of the battery. The hierarchical hidden Markov model (HHMM) acts as the decision-maker to switch the packet to the next hop. Thus, the performance of the given protocol is analyzed with different harvesting capabilities, exhibiting to be reliable and energy efficient in nature.

This chapter illustrates the analysis of a nano-communication system, implemented in blood vessels, designed for detecting tumor cells. This system may be used for diagnostic purposes in the early stage of a disease or to check any relapse of a previous disease already treated.The tumor detection happens through revealing tumor biomarkers, such as the CD47 protein, on the cell surface. Once a biomarker has been revealed, a molecular communication system distributes the information to a number of nano-machines having a size allowing them to flow through the vessel at the maximum speed of the bloodstream. The final information detection is extra-body, and based on a smart probe, which triggers a decision tree computing which aims to find if any tumor is present and the most likely location. Effects of aging and serious disease, such as the diabetes, are highlighted.

Abstract

Molecular Communication via Diffusion (MCvD) is an effective and energy efficient method for transmitting information in nanonetworks. In this chapter, we focus on the modulation techniques in a diffusion-based communication system. We mainly assume the first hitting process for the reception of the signal and it affects the design of the modulation techniques. As observed in the nature, whenever an information carrying molecule hits to the receiver it is removed from the environment. These information molecules are called messenger molecules and can be of many types of chemical compounds such as DNA fragments, proteins, peptides or specifically formed molecules. Information is modulated on one or more physical properties of these molecules or the release timing. In this chapter, we mention four novel modulation techniques, i.e., concentration, frequency, molecular-type, and timing-based modulations for MCvD in a single transmitter and single receiver environment. We also exemplify a systematic realization for molecular-ratio-based modulation using isomers as messenger molecules for MCvD. Next, we compare the pros and cons of the modulation techniques for an absorbing receiver that are studied in the literature. Knowing the workings and the properties of these modulation techniques enables us to use them in combination whenever it is possible.

Abstract

This chapter comes up with a brief overview of molecular communication models and modulation techniques by reviewing current research works found in the literature. The chapter also provides with an analysis of molecular communication in free diffusion-based molecular communication channel. In this model, the trasmitter nanomachine releases messenger molecules, the molecules diffuse through the channel, and the receiver nanomachine counts the received molecules to decode the information. We consider free diffusion of molecules where no additional force is required. Such a channel is referred to as the diffusion channel and can be modeled by using Ficks law of diffusion. Diffusion coefficient describes the tendency of propagation of the messenger molecules through the medium. Analysis shows that, channel memory offers a significant impact on performance.

Abstract

Understanding Communication via Diffusion (CvD) is key to molecular communications research since it dominates the movement at the nano-scale. The researcher needs to properly understand the random diffusion of the molecules for the analysis of a molecular communication system. This chapter aims explaining the dynamics of diffusion from a communication engineer’s perspective as well as providing useful hints for an effective simulation design by discussing some key intricacies. The chapter starts with a brief survey of simulators for molecular communications, followed by the basics of the simulation of Brownian motion and CvD. Several intricacies are addressed to help the researcher in simulation design, such as the number of replications required in terms of movement and bit sequence. We utilize this information further by discussing the design of more complex CvD systems such as tunnel-based approach that utilizes destroyer molecules and distributed simulator design based on HLA. Introduction of more complex CvD systems provides significant improvements in data rate and communications in general, bridging the gap between human-scale and nano-scale systems and enabling nanonetworking as a viable technology.
