Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are an integral aspect of modern technology, with applications ranging from environmental monitoring to industrial automation. However, the increasing complexity and demands of these networks require their performance, scalability and adaptability to be enhanced via advanced solutions, with artificial intelligence and optimization algorithms emerging as key technologies in this field.
This Special Issue seeks contributions that delve into this topic of research, presenting both theoretical advancements and the practical implementation of advanced mathematical tools for WSNs. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Sensor deployment and coverage optimization
- Sensor fusion and data aggregation techniques
- Advanced target tracking and localization algorithms
- Predictive maintenance and anomaly detection
- AI-based fault detection and network security
- Advanced sensor calibration methods
- Optimization algorithms for network management
- Energy-efficient routing protocols and resource allocation
- Methods addressing scalability and performance under constrained environments
- Edge computing and real-time processing in WSN
- Resource and information management
- Performance analysis and simulations of optimized WSNs
This Special Issue provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to address these research issues, fostering the development of impactful, AI-driven solutions in WSNs.

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. Mathematics 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 2600 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.
