Wireless Sensors and Wireless Sensor Networks for Engineering Applications

This special issue belongs to the section “Sensor Networks“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wireless sensors are broadly used in numerous engineering applications, and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) provide wireless sensors with seamless connectivity to end users and the Internet. Recently, wireless sensors and WSNs have been exploited more actively in the various areas of engineering domains because they are necessarily required for our highly connected society. For efficient implementation and qualified services, a number of research and development challenges have been studied but many of them still remain open issues to be resolved. In addition, remote sensing, vehicle (such as ground, aerial, or underwater vehicles)-aided sensing and communication, and machine learning techniques are emerging in the research and development of wireless sensors and WSNs.

This Special Issue aims to cover various state-of-the-art works on the enabling technologies and engineering applications of wireless sensors and WSNs. Not only original research articles but also innovative reviews related to hot issues are welcome. This Special Issue invites submissions on all topics of theories and practices for wireless sensors and WSNs, including but not limited to:

  • Wireless sensors
  • Wireless sensor networks
  • Internet of things
  • Remote sensing and sensors
  • Vehicle-aided sensing and communication
  • Machine learning techniques
  • Signal processing
  • Network security
  • Data security and privacy
  • Novel approaches and applications

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.
