In this paper an analytical model is introduced to describe the impulse\nresponse of the diffusive channel between a pointwise transmitter and a given\nfully-absorbing (FA) receiver in a molecular communication (MC) system. The\npresence of neighbouring FA nanomachines in the environment is taken into\naccount by describing them as sources of negative molecules. The channel\nimpulse responses of all the receivers are linked in a system of integral\nequations. The solution of the system with two receivers is obtained\nanalytically. For a higher number of receivers the system of integral equations\nis solved numerically. It is also shown that the channel impulse response shape\nis distorted by the presence of the interferers. For instance, there is a time\nshift of the peak in the number of absorbed molecules compared to the case\nwithout interference, as predicted by the proposed model. The analytical\nderivations are validated by means of particle based simulations.\n
