Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The imminent arrival of 6G wireless networks, featuring new frequencies and transmission methods and a vast increase in connected devices, will significantly impact electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure for humans and animals alike. This technological shift will create complex exposure scenarios, with multiple sources contributing simultaneously, resulting in highly variable exposure patterns with which we have no prior experience. In order to illustrate this phenomenon, the implementation of new frequencies in these emerging technologies may necessitate a reconsideration of our models for human outermost tissues. As we move into higher-frequency ranges, our understanding of how EMF interacts with biological systems must evolve. Moreover, these emerging scenarios and novel elements may require innovative approaches to solving EMF-related problem. This Special Issue aims to explore cutting-edge approaches to EMF exposure assessment in the context of these new technologies. We seek to address current research gaps and provide reliable, realistic evaluations of exposure levels for the general public in everyday futuristic settings, while also advancing our understanding of high-frequency EMF interactions with biological tissues.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
