Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The paradigm shift in wireless communication standards is gaining momentum with the increasing demand for data traffic, the number of connected nodes, and autonomously operating smart devices. This shift is reflected in the latest communication protocols, such as those on 5G, as well as multiplied connection speeds and increased connectivity support. Moreover, the same protocols require ultra-low-power operation and improved reliability, especially for the growing number of smart connected sensor devices across the globe. As a result, these connectivity demands will likely continue to grow with the upcoming, beyond-5G communications. These ever-growing demands for evolving wireless connectivity require interdisciplinary techniques in several research dimensions, many of which can be gathered under the umbrellas of advanced VLSI design and signal processing techniques. As a result, in this Special Issue, our focus is on the state-of-the-art methods that can address the latest challenges in wireless communications by proposing concurrent solutions through signal processing techniques and demonstrating through VLSI implementations.

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. 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.
