| contents | Molecular communication (MC) enables information exchange through the transmission of signaling molecules (SMs) and holds promise for many innovative applications. However, most existing works in MC rely on simplified transmitter (TX) models that do not account for the physical and biochemical limitations of realistic biological hardware and environments. This work extends previous efforts toward developing models for practical MC systems by proposing a more realistic TX model that incorporates the delay in SM release and TX noise introduced by biological components. Building on this more realistic, functionalized vesicle-based TX model, we propose two novel modulation schemes specifically designed for this TX to mitigate TX-induced memory effects that arise from delayed and imperfectly controllable SM release. The proposed modulation schemes enable low-complexity receiver designs by mitigating memory effects directly at the TX. Numerical evaluations demonstrate that the proposed schemes improve communication reliability under realistic biochemical constraints, offering an important step toward physically realizable MC systems. |
