Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
AI-empowered wireless power transfer (WPT) technology is emerging as a pivotal area of research, driven by its potential to revolutionize the wireless industry. As the demand for convenient, reliable, and safe wireless power transfer continues to grow, WPT systems have garnered significant attention. However, despite the numerous advantages of WPT technology, challenges such as decreasing transfer efficiency with increasing distance and the inevitable generation of large electromagnetic fields (EMFs) in charging systems remain unresolved. Metamaterials, engineered composite materials or structures, have emerged as innovative solutions to address these limitations. Recent advancements in WPT systems have demonstrated their effectiveness in enhancing transfer efficiency and mitigating EMF-induced electromagnetic compatibility issues.
This Special Issue aims to explore innovative applications of AI in WPT systems, including electromagnetic compatibility in metamaterial-based WPT systems, the use of AI in optimizing the performance of metamaterial-based wireless power transfer systems, theoretical studies on metamaterial-based WPT systems, magnetic-inductive and resonant wave phenomena in WPT systems via metamaterials, programmable metamaterials and metasurfaces for WPT systems, and smart wireless power transfer (SWIPT) technologies based on information metamaterials and metasurfaces. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge sharing, this initiative seeks to drive the development and implementation of groundbreaking AI-driven WPT technologies.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
