Communication between nanomachines (e.g. biological nano-scale devices) has the potential to open up new opportunities and applications, especially in areas such as health care and information processing. Inspired by current data communication protocols, we propose a molecular-based communication protocol to enable reliable communication between nanomachines. In this paper, we present a protocol stack which enables nanomachine communication through the encoding and transmission of data as biomolecules. Extending previous work in logical nano-computation, we define an error-recovery process through the use of a chemical state machine based on nano-logic circuit. Finally, we present initial results of simulation of nanomachine communication in the presence of both channel and chemical instability and demonstrate the performance of the nano-circuit in such conditions. |
