In the search for enabling technologies to achieve these expectations\, molecular communication is an important alternative to conventional electromagnetic-based wireless comm unication. In this talk\, we give a brief introduction to molecular commun ication\, and discuss how it may be used to communicate in "wave-denied" e nvironments\, where connectivity is desired but wireless cannot be used. W e also show that molecular communication can achieve surprisingly high inf ormation rates\, theoretically unlimited and practically in the gigabit-pe r-second range\, making it a compelling technology for 6G. We finish with a discussion of the current state of the field and propose some experiment al next steps.\n\nSpeaker(s): Andrew Eckford\n\nVirtual: https://events.vt ools.ieee.org/m/376874 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/376874 ORGANIZER:cai@ece.uvic.ca SEQUENCE:8 SUMMARY: High-speed molecular communication: a solution for 6G?
