Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the success of the previous Special Issue (Applications and New Trends in Metrology for Radar/LiDAR-Based Systems), a new one has been launched.
The scope of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of methods and instruments for, as well as practical experience with, testing LiDAR and radar systems and subsystems (land-based, shipborne, and onboard drones, aircraft, and satellites), as well as to obtain measurements of environmental features through remote sensing applications. Specifically, topics relevant to this Special Issue include instrument test equipment for verification and validation in the industry, at customer sites, or in the field of operation; automation and remote test equipment; virtual reality technologies; and both LiDAR and radar remote sensing applications.
Other topics relevant to this Special Issue are the state-of-the-art radar system architectures and related digital and software technologies; cognitive radars and the analysis of human-in-the-loop aspects in radar systems; dual-function radar communications and radar systems; waveform design; radar detection theory and radar signal processing; theory, algorithms, and applications (RTAA); target classification; micromotion estimation.
We are collecting papers from university researchers and industry specialists who are involved in conceiving, designing, installing, operating, and testing radar systems for both civilian and defense applications, as well as users and governmental/international agencies. We also invite authors from industries that provide instruments to test radar performance to submit a paper on one or more of the aforementioned topics.

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. Remote Sensing 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 2700 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.
