Electronics for Low-Size Low-Power Sensors and Systems: From Custom Design to Embedded Solutions

Dear Colleagues,

As smart sensing systems increase in functionality, complexity, and spread, the related electronic sections have to be flexible, reconfigurable, and possibly low-cost. Several electronics issues are still open among researchers, with the aim of minimizing energy consumption, optimizing performance, and reducing dimensions to obtain non-invasive and miniaturized solutions suitable in different applications and scenarios. The Special Issue “Electronics for Low-Size Low-Power Sensors and Systems: From Custom Design to Embedded Solutions” will publish innovative developments and synergies in the following topics (but not limited to them):

• User-customizable SoC platform applied to sensing and control complex applications
• Conditioning and interface electronics for smart sensing in real applications
• Electronic solutions for MEMS devices applied to industrial applications
• Electronics solutions for IoT-based health monitoring applications
• Electronic solutions for smart cities, homes and smart workplaces
• New sensors for food safety and quality: related interface electronics
• Wearable systems for biophysical parameters detection: electronic issues
• Wearable electronic systems for assisting people with physical disabilities, active living, and rehabilitation.
• Applications and innovations of energy harvesting systems: electronics open issues
• Low-size low-power sensors in embedded SoC: electronics aspects
• IoT-based systems for remote process control in different scenarios
• Low-power Electronic Solutions for signals acquisition/processing from wearable sensors;
• Embedded solutions and platforms for data processing: firmware issues and applications

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.
