Abstract

IEEEMolecular Communication (MC) has attracted significant attention, however, its application is limited due to the lack of computing capacity. Inspired by the concept of Over-the-Air Computation (AirComp), this paper pioneers a computational model for MC within microvascular networks. In this model, the root node acts as a receiver, while other nodes serve as transmitters, employing the microvascular network as a communication medium to directly receive the sum of transmitted information, thereby achieving computational functions in MC. Our model establishes a breakthrough framework, offering guidance for executing computational tasks within MC. Through simulation experiments, we assess our model in terms of computational error rates, thereby demonstrating its feasibility and effectiveness.
