Abstract
Molecular communication is a promising paradigm to implement nanonetworks, the interconnection of nanomachines. Catalytic nanomotors constitute one of the techniques that have been proposed for medium-range molecular communications. This paper presents a physical channel characterization that shows how nanomachines communicate using catalytic nanomotors as information carriers. Quantitative results of the packet transmission delay and loss probability are then obtained through simulation. Finally, some trade-offs that will arise when designing these networks are outlined.
