Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The digital landscape has been significantly shaped by the evolution of wireless communication networks. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology has emerged as a pivotal innovation to enhance data transmission rates and communication quality through multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver ends, which is regarded as a cornerstone of next-generation wireless communication systems. Sensors, the eyes and ears of the digital world, collect and transmit data critical for various applications ranging from environmental monitoring to industrial automation. Integrating MIMO technology into these sensor networks allows for a significant increase in the volume of data that can be processed, the speed at which it can be transmitted, and the resilience against interference and noise. This leads to the enablement of more complex applications, enhanced decision-making, and increased automation.
This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the cutting-edge applications of MIMO in sensor-based wireless communication networks, focusing on real-world implementations, theoretical advancements, and the future of wireless sensor technology. By bringing together a diverse array of research, we hope to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and inspire innovative solutions in MIMO and sensors that will drive the advancements in wireless communication technology.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Sensors 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.
