Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to showcasing cutting-edge research, innovative designs, and practical applications in the rapidly evolving field of RF (radio frequency) and microwave integrated circuit (IC) design. Against the backdrop of the growing demand for high-performance, low-power, and miniaturized wireless communication systems—spanning 5G/6G networks, satellite communications, radar systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices—this issue aims to address key technical challenges and highlight transformative advancements that shape the future of RF/microwave electronics.
