Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Imaging radars, including synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and inverse SAR (ISAR), play a significant role in remote sensing areas due to its all-day and all-weather imaging abilities. In recent years, imaging radar techniques have attracted great attention, especially signal processing, waveform design, anti-jamming, target feature extraction, and target recognition. Advances in the relevant aspects contribute greatly to the progress of microwave remote sensing techniques. Hence, it is of great necessity and significance to conduct this Special Issue entitled “Advances in imaging radar signal processing, target feature extraction and recognition”.

This Special Issue will include research covering recent advances related to imaging radar techniques in remote sensing. Topics may cover anything from signal processing, waveform design, and anti-jamming to target feature extraction, target recognition, and so on. Articles may address, but are not limited, to the following topics:

  • SAR/ISAR imaging techniques;
  • SAR/ISAR waveform design;
  • SAR/ISAR image feature transform;
  • SAR/ISAR anti-jamming;
  • SAR/ISAR target feature extraction;
  • SAR/ISAR target recognition;
  • Pol-SAR/ISAR information processing.

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.
