Abstract:
Organic Communication Channels (OCCs) are any hydrocarbon-based media which can be used to communicate data. This has great potential when applied to cyber-physical systems such as with smart farming. This paper establishes the relevance (though a literature survey and consideration of possible use cases for this technology), feasibility (through channel characterisation experiments) and proposes the infrastructure for OCC systems. The results show feasible communication of voice, video and text is possible with the proposed infrastructure for OCC communication. Finally, the approach of the proposal is evaluated through considerations for future work.
