Comprehensive step-by-step procedure to setup a molecular communication through liquid experiment

Molecular communication allows information to be exchanged in environments where electromagnetic waves are prohibited. It employs the exchange of information particles travelling through fluids. The transmitter releases several chemical messengers inside the communication channel, encoding the message it intends to send in an appropriate way. These messengers will be propagated in the communication channel according to the laws that determine their movement in the environment, until they reach the receiver, which then captures their presence and decodes their content. To set up an experiment of molecular communication through liquid, the following are required:•The simulation of the experiment by means of numerical resolution of the differential equations governing the process, in order to select the proper modulation technique.•The synthesis of the carbon nanoparticles to serve as the information nanoparticles.•The arrangement of the bench prototype for the experiments.
