Smart Wireless Nanosensor Systems for Human Healthcare
Published in Suresh Kaushik, Vijay Soni, Efstathia Skotti, Nanosensors for Futuristic Smart and Intelligent Healthcare Systems, 2022
Molecular communication proposes transmission and reception of information encoded in molecules. The molecular communication systems are designed and engineered from biological mechanisms and materials (Akan et al. 2017). For example, small particles such as molecules or lipid vesicles released into the fluidic or gaseous medium via the nanotransmitter propagate in the medium until they arrive at a receiver that upon detecting the small molecules decodes the information encoded in them. Messages can be encoded in different properties such as concentration, number, type, release timing, and/or a ratio of molecules (Akan et al. 2017). A list of various components and materials used for developing molecular communication systems is provided in Table 2. Sender and receiver bio-nanomachines require chemical functionality for effective communication, with the sender bio-nanomachines being able to synthesize, store, and release information molecules, while receiver bio-nanomachines need to capture and react to specific information molecules. Information molecules propagate information from a sender to receiver bio-nanomachines. Guide and transport molecules help in propagating the information by directing the molecule toward target locations. Interface molecules allow bio-nanomachines to transport variety of information molecules using the same communication mechanism Addressing molecules allow nanosensors to transport a variety of information molecules using the same communication mechanism.
Nanosensor Laboratory
Published in Vinod Kumar Khanna, Nanosensors, 2021
Two main methods for communication are envisioned at the nanoscale: (i) molecular communication, defined as the transmission and reception of information encoded in molecules; and (ii) nanoelectromagnetic communication, dealing with the transmission and reception of electromagnetic radiation from components utilizing novel nanomaterials. Electromagnetic communication among nanosensors will be aided by the development of nanoantennas and the corresponding electromagnetic transceiver. To seek the nanoantenna goal (Hagerty et al. 2004), the following approaches are likely: (i) more accurate models for nanoantennas based on nanotubes and nanoribbons need to be formulated, by providing their specific bands of operation, radiation bandwidth, and radiation efficiency. All these parameters will determine the communication capabilities of nanosensor devices; (ii) novel nanoantenna designs and radiating nanostructures must be put forward by exploiting the properties of nanomaterials and new manufacturing techniques; and (iii) a new antenna theory must be framed by considering the quantum effects observed at the nanoscale.
Molecular communication technology and implications for sport management
Published in Cheryl Mallen, Emerging Technologies in Sport, 2019
Molecular communication technology “uses molecules (i.e. biochemical signals) as an information medium and allows biologically and artificially created nano- or microscale entities to communicate”.2 This technology will enhance understandings of bodily function as it informs an individual about what is happening to specific cells within their body – directly at the molecular level to provide feedback data on changes within cells in real time.3 This feedback can be obtained as a one-time only occurrence or through a continuous monitoring method that provides data over a prolonged time period.

Molecular dynamic (MD) simulation was performed utilizing the Material Studio 2018 program that mostly investigated the construction of the Forcite component. The MD simulation was run in a tri-dimensional box with periodic boundary settings to recreate a representative fragment of the interface border that was free of every random border influence. The inhibitors molecule were examined by placing them on Fe (110) surface utilizing the layer builder to generate the corrosion system, Iron (110) was shared lengthways it’s equal in a 30Å sheet (Boulechfar et al. 2021), and prolonged into a (10 × 10) super-cell to guarantee a large enough surface for molecular communication. Additionally, 1 molecule of the studied inhibitors and 175 molecules of H2O were present (Madani et al. 2021).
