Modeling of Molecular Communication System in Microvascular Network

In recent years, molecular communication (MC) has gradually become a research hotspot. Human microvascular network is one of the main application scenarios for MC systems. However, there are few researches on the topological model of the microvascular network at this stage, which also becomes a major technical obstacle for the further development of MC systems. In this paper, inspired by human arterial tree, we propose a MC system model in microvascular network based on binary tree structure. This model abstracts part of the blood vessel network of human body into a binary tree. The junction of blood vessels are represented by binary tree nodes. We evaluate the proposed model in terms of bit error rate (BER) by simulations. This work can pave the way for the implementation of Internet of in-body Nano Things (IoNTs).
