Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the growing demand for various connectivity solutions, interest in UWB protocols has risen significantly, driving active research and development. Beginning with the IEEE 802.15.4z standard, geometric wireless sensing technologies—such as distance measurement and angle of arrival (AoA)—are being combined with conventional communication systems, creating explosive industrial demand. These advancements in wireless sensors are also paving the way for a new paradigm based on UWB radar technologies.
Accordingly, this Special Issue aims to cover comprehensive topics related to IC design, implementation and other aspects associated with UWB radar applications.
The topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
- Implementation of UWB building-block ICs
- SoC systems for UWB-radar applications
- Broadband RF circuits (e.g., LNAs, mixers)
- Various ranging and radar applications utilizing UWB technology
- UWB-radar signal analysis

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
