Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sensing and imaging with electromagnetic waves have grown rapidly in the past few decades thanks to the significant progress in hardware components and processing algorithms. On the hardware side, the emergence of new and cost-effective sensors and their associated data acquisition boards has paved the way toward numerous novel applications. On the processing side, the development of faster computing machines has allowed for realization of more sophisticated algorithms that facilitate real-time or quasi real-time imaging and sensing of the media. The range of applications is very broad and encompasses frequencies from fractions of Hertz to tera-Hertz and beyond, including but not limited to eddy current inspections, inductive sensing of conductive objects, capacitive sensing of dielectric objects, microwave imaging for biomedical and nondestructive testing applications, microwave sensing for material identification, radar imaging and remote sensing, tera-Hertz imaging and sensing, and optical imaging and sensing. The objective of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of the current research on methods and applications of electromagnetic waves in the imaging and sensing of media, highlighting the latest developments and innovations in modern applications in terms of sensors, data acquisition circuits, sampling methods, algorithms, and so on. We will also try to identify new challenges and opportunities for new 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 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.
