Advances in Wireless Communication Technologies-2nd Edition

This special issue belongs to the section “Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wireless communication technologies remain an important and interesting topic, and, as such, we would like to launch a second edition of this Special Issue.

Wireless communications are unquestionably a cornerstone of modern society. Research in this field has been conducted for decades, and important advances are being made constantly, with upgrades of existing wireless standards (such as 4G, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, LoRa, etc.) and with the constant push for new technologies (like 5G and now 6G). Despite these technological advances, the key success of wireless communications is their unquestionable enabling of solutions in countless key areas, such as environmental monitoring (of oceans, forests, hydric resources, wildlife, agriculture, food, etc.), healthcare, aeronautics, space, surveillance, transportation, data sharing, and communication, to mention just a few.

Authors are invited to contribute to the advancement of wireless communication technologies, whether at the technological level or as a novel application in any of the enumerated fields, through submitting their work to this Special Issue.
