Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will explore the latest advancements and emerging trends in intelligent communication techniques pivotal for the development of future multi-functional wireless networks. With the rapid evolution of wireless technologies, these networks are increasingly required to support a diverse range of functionalities, including high-speed data transmission, real-time sensing, localization and navigation, task computing, wireless power transfer, etc. By integrating these diverse functionalities within a single system, we can significantly enhance the efficiency, versatility, and overall capability of communication networks. This Special Issue will address the challenges and opportunities associated with applying intelligent communication techniques within these multi-functional wireless networks. We invite contributions that focus on innovative algorithms, protocols, and architectures that enhance future network performance, reliability, and security. Key topics of interest include, but are not limited to, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning applications in wireless communication, distributed AI and federated learning in large-scale wireless networks, connected intelligence in future wireless networks, and challenges and opportunities involved in standardizing intelligent communication techniques. Furthermore, we encourage submissions that present practical implementations, experimental results, and case studies demonstrating the effectiveness of intelligent communication techniques in real-world multi-functional wireless networks.

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.
