Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, radar-based human healthcare sensing has proven an efficient method for vital signs acquisition and anomaly detection in many modern applications. Radar Sensing for Human Healthcare is a very promising methodology that causes less discomfort compared with traditional contact-based medical devices and more intelligent healthcare systems. In smart home application, sleep monitoring based on radar has attracted particular interest due to the high demand for non-invasive sleep-monitoring solutions and the surging number of sleep-related disorders. Robust and accurate fall detection is essential to provide immediate medical care and to reduce the severe post-fall consequences. All of these radar-sensing-based human healthcare applications are dependent on advanced signal-processing methods and recently developed deep learning algorithms.
We would like to invite you to contribute to the field of Radar Sensing for Human Healthcare by submitting articles discussing your recent research. Contributions may discuss (but are not limited to) the following topics:
- Vital signs monitoring based on radar;
- Heart rate variability and respiratory abnormalities estimation based on radar;
- Human activity estimation and fall detection warning based on radar;
- Sleep monitoring and sleep disorder detection based on radar;
- People detection and localization based on radar networking

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.
