Abstract
Molecular communications (MC) is a promising paradigm which enables nano-machines to communicate with each other. Due to the severe attenuation of molecule concentrations, there tends to be more errors when the receiver becomes farther from the transmitter. To solve this problem, relaying schemes need to be implemented to achieve reliable communications. In this letter, time-dependent molecular concentrations are utilised as the information carrier, which will be influenced by the noise and channel memory. The emission process is also considered. The relay node (RN) can decode messages, and forward them by sending either the same or a different kind of molecules as the transmitter. The performance is evaluated by deriving theoretical expressions as well as through simulations. Results show that the relaying scheme will bring significant benefits to the communication reliability.
