Abstract

Molecular communication is a recent research hot spot, which uses molecules as information carrier. It can be used to model targeted drug delivery system. Because drug releasing nanomachine and disease site, e.g., tumor, are always mobile, constant drug rate is not an efficient way. In this paper, an adaptive release rate scheme for targeted drug delivery based on mobile molecular communication is proposed. The mobility features of the drug releasing nanomachine and the disease site are modeled. The drug releasing nanomachine changes its release rate adaptively according to the sensed biomarker concentration which is released by the disease site. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can effectively control the drug load stable at the disease site.
