Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the 5G standalone (SA) standard recently in discussion, related advanced communications techniques in order to support various QoS (quality of service) requirements for IoT applications are also being actively studied. In particular, many researchers and engineers are focused on real-time adaptive control and communication frameworks for industrial or vehicular IoT applications. Massive MIMO techniques based on 3D hybrid beamforming have been studied as a key ingredient for mmWave communication. Various IoT applications also require massive connectivity while providing broadband services at the same time. Real-time adjustment and optimization via machine learning has been regarded as a promising approach to provide mission-critical control and massive connectivity. This Special Issue invites submissions of technical papers that may address, but are not limited to, the topics below:
- Massive MIMO
- mmWave, THz communication
- 3D beamforming, hybrid beamforming
- Beam tracking, mobility management
- Channel estimation
- Dynamic resource allocation, load balancing
- Random access, machine-type communication
- Machine learning for 5G and IoT

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.
