Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven its worth in the last decade in solving complex and/or poorly structured problems in a diverse array of applications. Wireless communications has experienced extraordinary growth since the 1990’s, to the extent that it is almost taken for granted today. However, the application of AI in the design, analysis, and maintenance of wireless communications networks is still in its infancy, though in a rapid growth phase. Many papers have been written on the use of AI in both physical and network layers, but there has so far been few convincing arguments for the practical use of AI in wireless communications. In this Special Issue, we aim to explore the practical applications of AI within the lower layers of the protocol stack of wireless communications systems. Cross-layer designs will be of particular interest, and trade-offs between complexity and performance will be emphasized. Test-bedding and field-trial descriptions are especially welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Non-linear effects in wireless transceiver design;
- Wireless network resource allocation;
- IoT and other specialized network design;
- Localization of wireless devices;
- Detection and prevention of cyber-security attacks at the wireless network edge;
- Military communications;
- AI techniques suitable for online training;
- Systematic design and adaptation of AI parameters in a dynamic setting;
- Novel practical applications of AI in wireless communications.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
