contents Molecular communication is a bio-inspired communication paradigm where molecules are used as the information carrier. This paper considers a molecular communication network where the transmitter uses concentration modulated signals for communication. Our focus is to design receivers that can demodulate these signals. We want the receivers to use enzymatic cycles as their building blocks and can work approximately as a maximum a posteriori (MAP) demodulator. No receivers with all these features exist in the current molecular communication literature. We consider enzymatic cycles because they are a very common class of chemical reactions that are found in living cells. In addition, a MAP receiver has good statistical performance. In this paper, we study the operating regime of an enzymatic cycle and how the parameters of the enzymatic cycles can be chosen so that the receiver can approximately implement a MAP demodulator. We use simulation to study the performance of this receiver. We show that we can reduce the bit-error ratio of the demodulator if the enzymatic cycle operates in specific parameter regimes.
