Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Applications associated with radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology are currently well beyond their initial identification tasks, and many examples of RFID-based sensors have been reported in the literature. The advantages of this technology include the absence of a battery and its ultra-low cost, leading to many opportunities for developing new sensing applications in several industrial sectors (healthcare, home automation, industry, automotive, military applications, structural health monitoring, etc.).
The development of such sensors can be done within different technologies (i.e., ultra-high-frequency (UHF) and chipless technologies), and implies the realization of specific antennas dedicated to well-defined environments as well as smart sensitive materials compatible with the RFID technology. In this framework, this Special Issue calls for contributions presenting the latest research results on RFID technologies.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following disciplines:
- New RFID applications;
- Green technology applied to RFID;
- Innovative printing techniques in flexible electronics;
- Smart material processing for RFID sensing applications;
- Sensitive RF resonators;
- RFID antennas for complex environments, and for different architectures.

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.
