Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wireless communications and networking are expected to continue their development over future generations due to the continuing explosive growth of mobile applications in terms of traffic amount and heterogeneity, with new user services including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), holographic telepresence, industry 4.0, and robotics that require massive user connectivity, support of heterogeneous data traffic, extremely high bandwidth efficiency, and ultralow latency. In order to fully support the aforementioned services and applications, next-generation wireless communications and networking have to be equipped with novel system designs and schemes throughout layers and components in the most effective manner possible. Moreover, recent advances in machine learning enable novel approaches to tackle challenges in next-generation wireless communications and networking, making it more efficient with lower operational expenses. However, fully satisfying its stringent requirements in practical communication scenarios is challenging, and there are still many important open research problems. This Special Issue seeks to explore system designs and schemes for next-generation wireless communications and networking and invites novel contributions from researchers and practitioners.

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. 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.
