摘要
This paper provides an in-depth view on nanosensor technology and electromagnetic communication among nanosensors. First, the state of the art in nanosensor technology is surveyed from the device perspective, by explaining the details of the architecture and components of individual nanosensors, as well as the existing manufacturing and integration techniques for nanosensor devices. Some interesting applications of wireless nanosensor networks are highlighted to emphasize the need for communication among nanosensor devices. A new network architecture for the interconnection of nanosensor devices with existing communication networks is provided. The communication challenges in terms of terahertz channel modeling, information encoding and protocols for nanosensor networks are highlighted, defining a roadmap for the development of this new networking paradigm. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
