The Effects of Nanosensors Movements on Nanocommunications

Published: 21 September 2015 Publication History

Abstract

Nanonetworks expand the capability of a single nanosensor in computational complexity and transmission range. If information provided by sensors is to be transferred to the end system in a multi-hop fashion, nanodevices movement during transmission process would cause some effects to the received signal. Correct symbol detection is necessary to avoid the interference between sub-sequence symbols. In this paper, we propose a mobility model for nanonetworks. We investigate the effects of nodes movements in terms of pulse time-shift, Doppler effect, information rate reduction, error rate increase, and signal shape for correct detection. The results show that pulse time-shift introduce inter-symbol interference (ISI) for large data transmission, while the movement speed has significant impacts on the maximum information rate and on the achievable bit error rate.
