Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the Special Issue of Applied Sciences on Antenna Design and Microwave Engineering. This collection of research articles serves as a comprehensive platform for sharing innovative advancements and breakthroughs in the fields of antennas and microwave engineering.
Antennas are the vital interface between electromagnetic waves and electronic systems, and their design is paramount for the efficient transmission and reception of data, be it for wireless communication, radar systems, satellite technology, or emerging IoT applications. Microwave engineering, on the other hand, plays a pivotal role in the development of high-frequency electronic components and systems, enabling seamless connectivity and high-speed data transfer.
This Special Issue brings together a diverse array of contributions covering topics ranging from novel antenna designs and modeling techniques to microwave components, advanced materials, and cutting-edge applications. We aim to stimulate discussions, inspire creativity, and foster collaboration in these rapidly evolving fields. We hope that the research presented here will inspire further progress and innovation in antenna design and microwave engineering.
We express our gratitude to all the authors for their valuable contributions and look forward to a rewarding exploration of the contents within this Special Issue. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Novel antenna designs;
- Application specific antenna designs (MIMO, array, beamforming, multibeam antennas);
- Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) designs;
- Antenna-on-chip (AoC) designs:
- Microwave or baseband components;
- Integrated circuits for RF systems;
- Wireless communication systems.

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.
