Signal and Information Processing in Wireless Sensor Networks

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have attracted worldwide interest in the last two decades. Advances in communications, computations and miniaturization have led to their emergence and use in a large range of applications. WSNs are composed of smart nodes able to sense, process, collect, store, and share data. The main objective of using WSN is to create and monitor intelligent fields for military applications, environmental engineering, healthcare, industry, smart home, etc.

The aim of this Special Issue is to collect original papers, covering unpublished research, from academic and industrial actors. The fields of interest of this Special Issue are signal and information processing in all types of WSNs, from small-scale networks, such as wireless personal area networks, wireless body area networks and Internet of Things, to large-scale ad hoc networks, such as vehicular ad hoc networks and unmanned aerial vehicular ad hoc networks.

Topics of interest in signal and information processing include, but are not limited to:

  • Machine learning algorithms
  • Distributed optimization algorithms
  • Spectrum sensing and cognitive radio networks
  • Energy-efficient algorithms
  • Sensor data fusion
  • Big data processing
  • Biomedical signal processing
  • Pattern recognition and analysis
  • Other applications of WSN and industrial experiences

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
