Abstract

Molecular communication (MC) in pipe networks is a novel technique
for wireless data exchange. Simulating such networks accurately
is difficult because of the complexity of fluid dynamics at
centimeter scales, which existing MC simulators do not model. The
new simulator we present combines computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) simulation and particle movement predictions. It is optimized
to be computationally efficient while offering a high degree
of adaptability to complex fluid flows in larger pipe networks. We
validate it by comparing the simulation with experimental results
obtained in a real-world testbed.
