Abstract

In order to validate a Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol based on molecular communication that is implemented on an STM32 embedded platform, this paper presents a dual-environment Phase-1 simulation framework. The suggested approach combines MATLAB-based molecular channel modeling with Proteus-based embedded firmware validation. The framework enables pre-hardware verification of ADC-based molecular signal detection, pump-driven transmission logic, and throughput estimation under flow-assisted diffusion. Mathematical derivations for the molecular channel response and throughput optimization are provided. Simulation results establish theoretical throughput limits and validate MAC timing feasibility prior to experimental implementation.
