Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Unmanned aerial vehicles are increasingly used in many areas of life. The variety of aerodynamic solutions, propulsion systems, and the dimensions and weight of currently used UAVs means that their full on-board equipment can be both systems with a very large scale of integration weighing several dozen grammes, as well as much larger systems whose weight is counted in tens and even hundreds of kilogrammes. Moreover, the specificity of many applications of unmanned aerial vehicles requires the search for unconventional and unique solutions. All this makes the design of on-board systems for UAVs a challenge not only technically, but also scientifically.
The Special Issue of Aerospace on ‘On-Board Systems for UAV' focuses on the broad topic of design, integration, testing and maintenance of avionics, as well as sensors and multi-sensor systems installed on UAVs. Theoretical and practical articles related to the various on-board modules and systems are welcome.
The scope of this Special Issue includes (but is not limited to):
- Avionics and data buses;
- Measurement systems;
- Data acquisition and flight data recorders;
- Telemetry;
- Sensors and multi-sensor systems;
- Multispectral observation systems.
Papers from academic as well as applied researchers are encouraged in 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. Aerospace is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
