Advances in Wireless Mobile Communication and Healthcare

Dear Colleague,

The healthcare industry has grown significantly due to various factors, including an ageing population, a rise in chronic diseases, and technological advancements. Wireless communication and mobile computing have significantly impacted the healthcare sector, with technology constantly evolving through the development of new technologies such as 5G, the Internet of Things, robotics, and smart buildings. Incorporating these innovations, along with e-health, m-health, edge computing, software-defined networks, and network function virtualization, have further transformed the industry. The conflict in Europe and other issues 

such as COVID-19 recovery and pandemic preparedness have slowed progress towards improving global health governance and outcomes. New challenges continue to arise and must be addressed. In addition, integrating innovative technology involves numerous complexities and requires finding sound solutions to ethical, legal, social, and security challenges to achieve socio-technical alignment and societal acceptance.

The goal of this Special Issue is to bring together individuals and organizations worldwide working in wireless communication, mobile computing, and healthcare applications for sharing ideas, exploring innovative and emerging solutions, and enabling collaboration.
