Abstract
This study proposed a novel data modulation technique for digital communication by using a concentration of odor molecules. The information is encapsulated in an odor with controlled concentration levels in accordance with the binary representation of the message by using an olfactory display. The released odor is then measured by an odor sensing system where it is converted into electrical form that can be demodulated into the original data by using a digital filter and decision decoder. The experiments of sending a message by mean of odor in the UART format were performed to evaluate the possibility of the proposed molecular communication approach. The results reveal that the shape of signals detected by the odor sensor is associated with the information in the message, which confirms the reliability of data communication using this method.
