Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to providing a comprehensive overview of different perspectives on the state-of-the-art sensor technologies, sensor network architectures, sensory algorithms, and remote sensing frameworks developed for intelligent transportation systems (ITS), including state estimation, motion planning, and controls for automated driving systems and autonomous navigation.
We are inviting you to contribute high-quality novel research and comprehensive survey articles providing consolidated, up-to-date perspectives in the field of ITS.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Inertial measurement units (IMUs) and inertial sensors for ITS: IMU-based navigation;
- Visual sensors and vison-based sensory architectures for ITS: vision-based navigation;
- Sensor fusion and sensor networks/architectures for ITS: navigation, localization, mapping;
- Sensor fusion and sensor networks/architectures for ITS: vehicular state estimation;
- Sensor fusion and sensor networks/architectures for ITS: power train monitoring and control;
- State estimation using on-board multimodal sensory data for autonomous navigation;
- Distributed sensor networks for cooperative intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS);
- Fault diagnosis and isolation in ITS sensor networks;
- Machine learning approaches for reliable multimodal perception in ITS;
- System-theoretic approaches to sensory algorithm design and sensor fusion in ITS;
- Sensor design, sensory algorithms, and sensor networks/architectures for articulated ITS;
- Sensor design, sensory algorithms, and sensor architectures for railway transportation systems.

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.
