Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) systems can utilize hardware and frequency spectrum resources more efficiently, leading to cost savings, improved information sharing, and enhanced sensing and communication performance. ISAC is becoming a promising technology in both the radar and communication fields, with many potential applications in autonomous vehicles, 6G networks, healthcare, and smart cities. Among the various technical aspects of ISAC systems, radar imaging techniques are crucial as they provide high-resolution 2D/3D images, enhancing environmental awareness. The fusion of radar images with other source data can further improve the ISAC system’s overall capability, reliability, and efficiency. Addressing radar imaging and data fusion techniques for ISAC systems, this Special Issue focuses on the following aspects:
- New ISAC system architecture centered on radar imaging;
- Waveform design and signal processing for ISAC systems;
- 2D/3D/4D mmWave radar imaging methods;
- MIMO mmWave radar signal processing;
- Data fusion methods for ISAC 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.
