Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research in bioimpedance sensing and measurement, in combination with developments in the synthesis and analysis of measurement signals, has enabled the development of effective devices for the prediction, diagnosis, and monitoring of diseases. We pay particular attention to wearable sensors and devices that run on limited computing resources with low energy reserve. The last matter sets specific requirements for signal processing—fast calculations at low complexity and low energy consumption. Another feature is that we measure and analyze time-varying impedances as of breathing lungs, pumping heart, and pulsating blood, as well as fast-moving pathogens in high-throughput microfluidic devices. That is, concurrent time- and frequency-domain analysis is required. The third and perennial problem is the suppression of noise and elimination of artefacts. In this Special Issue we invite research papers presenting novel methodologies, algorithms, and mathematical approaches for the generation, acquisition, and processing of bioimpedance signals.

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. Signals is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
