Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the success of the first edition of our Special Issue entitled “Advanced Millimeter Wave Antenna Systems for 5G and beyond 5G Wireless Communications” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/8JT1Z565QA), we would like to invite our colleagues again to contribute their expertise, insights, and findings in the form of original research articles and reviews for the current edition of this Special Issue.
This Special Issue aims to bring together original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of mmWave wireless communication systems.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced mmWave antenna design;
- Massive MIMO, ultra-massive MIMO, and holographic MIMO communications at mmWave bands;
- RIS communications at mmWave bands;
- ISAC at mmWave bands;
- MmWave UAV communications;
- MmWave maritime communications;
- MmWave communication channel measurements;
- MmWave communication channel characterization;
- MmWave communication channel modeling;
- Multi-frequency cooperation algorithms design.

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.
