Microwave Measurements, Methods and Instruments for Science, Society and Industry

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Microwave, rf and millimeter-wave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum host some of the most sensitive, ingenious, and powerful measuring techniques. By means of microwave and rf measurements, extremely diverse experimental investigations such as health monitoring, cultural heritage monitoring and diagnostic, quantum computing devices, advanced material investigations, fundamental physics experiments, novel imaging techniques and industrial monitoring, to name a few, are made possible.

Such different topics are usually covered in field-specific conferences or publications. This Special Issue focusses on the novel and innovative methods, techniques and instruments operating in the rf, microwave and millimeter range, to promote cross-fertilization between different scientific and technical fields and to stimulate the improvement of experimental methods and measurement science in the 0.1100 GHz range.

Papers on all topics of rf, microwave, and millimeter wave measurements are welcome, with a clear focus on the aspects related to measurement science. Our final aim is to facilitate the exchange of technical knowledge among engineers, scientists and industrial researchers from different backgrounds to foster research with improved experimental techniques.

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Instruments is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1400 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.
