Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advancements in smart magnetic sensors and magnetometers have revolutionized high-precision magnetic field measurements across various applications, including in industrial, medical, and environmental monitoring. Specifically, innovations in miniaturized design and low-power chip technologies have made it possible to integrate these sensors into wearable devices, autonomous systems, and smart manufacturing equipment. These advancements have enabled capabilities ranging from fT sensing to nT biomagnetic detection.
Commercial applications of these sensors now span a wide range, including smartphone navigation, industrial non-destructive testing, and magnetocardiography. To further advance this field, we invite submissions addressing the following research directions:
① Multiphysical coupling modeling: The establishment of magnetic field–electrical signal–optical signal correlation models to improve the accuracy and sensitivity of magnetic field measurement prediction.
② Intelligent data processing framework: The development of real-time signal processing algorithms compatible with edge computing to mitigate data drift in mobile scenes.
③ Cross-scale data fusion: Collaborative analysis of geomagnetic navigation data and biomagnetic signals to build an integrated system of spatial positioning and health monitoring.
④ Miniaturization design: The development of miniaturization magnetometers and key devices, with a view to integrating them into wearable devices.
We look forward for your valuable contributions to this Special Issue.

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.
