Abstract :
Molecular communication is an emerging research area in the bio and nano science. Molecular communication uses molecules as a communication medium and allows nanomachines to communicate over a short distance. A key design challenge in molecular communication is controlling the propagation direction of information-carrying molecules towards their destination. This paper presents results of the experiment for transporting liposome containers to the designated receivers. In the experiments, molecular tags were used to identify the destination of the liposome containers
