“…We find such a distinction unnecessary, given that we separate different applications based on the requirements they pose on the supporting nanonetwork. Wireless nanosensor networks have been proposed in [53] and envision applications such as high-resolution environmental monitoring [85], wearables [86], nanocameras-based extreme spatial resolution recordings [87], nanoscale imaging [88], and the Internet of Multimedia Nano-Things [30]. Nonetheless, these applications can be viewed as a sensing-only subset of applications enabled by the wireless robotic materials, hence we do not group them into a separate category.…”

“…To truly support many of the envisioned applications, seamless integration of the nanonetworks with existing networking infrastructures will be needed [86]. Addressing this issue is not straightforward, as existing networks predominantly utilize carrier-based electromagnetic communication, while nanonetworks will seemingly have to rely on energy-constrained pulse-based communication.…”

Recent developments in nanotechnology herald nanometer-sized devices expected to bring light to a number of groundbreaking applications. Communication with and among nanodevices will be needed for unlocking the full potential of such applications. As the traditional communication approaches cannot be directly applied in nanocommunication, several alternative paradigms have emerged. Among them, electromagnetic nanocommunication in the terahertz (THz) frequency band is particularly promising, mainly due to the breakthrough of novel materials such as graphene. For this reason, numerous research efforts are nowadays targeting THz band nanocommunication and consequently nanonetworking. As it is expected that these trends will continue in the future, we see it beneficial to summarize the current status in these research domains. In this survey, we therefore aim to provide an overview of the current THz nanocommunication and nanonetworking research. Specifically, we discuss the applications envisioned to be supported by nanonetworks operating in the THz band, together with the requirements that such applications pose on the underlying nanonetworks. Subsequently, we provide an overview of the current contributions on the different layers of the protocol stack, as well as the available channel models and experimentation tools. As the final contribution, we identify a number of open research challenges and outline several potential future research directions.
