Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Microwave sensors have emerged as a pivotal technology in modern sensing applications, offering unique advantages such as non-destructive detection, high sensitivity and real-time monitoring capabilities. As we advance towards a more interconnected and data-driven world, the integration of microwave sensing with flexible electronics, biocompatible materials and artificial intelligence is creating new paradigms for industrial and healthcare sectors.
This Special Issue, titled "Trends and Prospects in Microwave Sensors," aims to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers to share their latest breakthroughs and future visions in this dynamic field. We invite original research and review articles that address fundamental challenges and explore innovative applications of microwave sensors. Key areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- high-performance microwave dielectric sensors,
- wearable and flexible microwave systems for continuous health monitoring,
- non-invasive glucose and vital sign detection,
- the development of intelligent microwave array biosensors.
By highlighting the convergence of microwave engineering and multidisciplinary science, this issue seeks to delineate the roadmap for the next generation of microwave sensing 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 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-anonymized 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.
