Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, radar systems have played an essential role in civil or defense applications, such as land-cover mapping, target detection, vegetation parameter estimation, and ground surface deformation monitoring. This Special Issue aims to bring high-quality, internationally leading researchers, scientists, and engineers from both academia and industry to present and discuss the latest technological developments and academic research in Radar System Modeling and Its Applications. The scope of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of innovative technologies, methods, and sensors for a practical experience with radar systems (ground-based, shipborne, and onboard drones, aircraft, and satellites) to obtain measurements of environmental features through remote sensing applications. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Innovative radar algorithms and processing methods;
- Airborne/UAV SAR data processing, such as interferometry, residual motion error correction, etc.;
- Vertical structure inversion over forest, agriculture, desert, ice and snow, and permafrost areas;
- Subcanopy topography estimation over forest areas;
- 3D model reconstruction and structural health monitoring of major infrastructures;
- Monitoring and modeling of ground surface deformation events using radar systems;
- Target classification and recognition in radar applications;
- Machine learning applications in modern radars.

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.
