Abstract

In molecular communication, two types of multiple access have been studied: time division and molecule division. In this work, we consider code division multiple access. However, unlike code division multiple access that has been used for electromagnetic signals, we investigate optical code division multiple access: since molecular signals have the same non-negativity feature as optical signals, this scheme is a promising solution for molecular communication.

In this thesis, we perform experiments and set up simulation models which match these experiments. Moreover, using simulations, we find the features of optical code division multiple access for molecular communication. Our results include an optimal information transmission scheme, and an algorithm to decode molecular information signals. Finally, we demonstrate reliable communication with multiple access by using this scheme.
