Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) has emerged as a key enabling technology for next-generation intelligent systems, supporting the rapid development of electric vehicles, implantable medical devices, industrial automation, underwater robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT). With the growing demand for high-power, long-distance, and high-efficiency wireless charging, innovative breakthroughs in system design, control algorithms, energy management, and electromagnetic compatibility are urgently required.

This Special Issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research contributions, novel theories, engineering solutions, and emerging applications in the field of wireless power transfer. We seek original research articles, reviews, and novel perspectives that advance both the fundamental understanding and practical deployment of WPT systems.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Inductive, capacitive, and microwave- or laser-based WPT technologies;
  • High-efficiency coils, compensation topologies, and power converters;
  • Magnetic field optimization, EMI/EMC, safety, and standardization;
  • Dynamic, multi-receiver, or long-distance WPT systems;
  • WPT for IoT, electric transportation, biomedical devices, and underwater systems.

We warmly invite you to contribute to this Special Issue.

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.
