Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Microwave and microstrip technologies play a key role in modern communication and electronic systems by enabling high-speed data transmission, efficient signal processing, and compact high-performance circuits. The use of novel materials, advanced design, simulation techniques, innovative fabrication methods, and flexible substrates enhance their practical applications. This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research on microwave and microstrip devices and circuits. Submissions focusing on innovative design and fabrication techniques, the use of novel materials, printed electronics, and flexible substrates are particularly welcome, although classical fabrication methods are also appreciated. Contributions may cover both theoretical studies and practical implementations, including measurement and validation.
Topics may include filters, couplers, power dividers, resonators, antennas, and other printed circuits. Topics on all radio-frequency applications may be covered, except for radar systems, which are beyond the scope of this Special Issue. We warmly invite researchers from academia and industry worldwide to contribute their latest findings to this Special Issue. Our goal is to showcase innovative work that pushes the boundaries of microwave and microstrip technologies.

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. Microwave 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 1000 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.
