Abstract:

This paper evaluates how various network parameters impact communication quality in a dense electromagnetic nanonetwork. The parameters studied are beta, communication range, node density, and pulse duration. The quality is measured by packet collisions, receptions, emissions, and deliveries to destination. The evaluation considers homogeneous and heterogeneous networks, and single and multiple packets per flow. Simulation results show how these parameters influence network communication quality; for example, increasing beta reduces collisions and increases receptions, deliveries, and emission rates up to an optimal threshold, beyond which further increases in beta have no significant effect. These insights provide guidelines for selecting appropriate network parameters.
