RNA as a Nanoscale Data Transmission Medium: Error Analysis
Andrew W. Eckford, Taro Furbayashi, and Tadashi Nakano

TL;DR
This paper investigates the error characteristics of RNA-based data transmission, focusing on how replication-induced deletion errors accumulate over time, highlighting challenges for RNA data storage reliability.
Contribution
It provides the first detailed error analysis of RNA as a data transmission medium, emphasizing the impact of replication noise on data integrity.
Findings
Deletion errors increase with replication cycles
RNA replication noise significantly affects data fidelity
Error rates escalate over time during replication
Abstract
RNA can be used as a high-density medium for data storage and transmission; however, an important RNA process -- replication -- is noisy. This paper presents an error analysis for RNA as a data transmission medium, analyzing how deletion errors increase in a collection of replicated DNA strands over time.
