Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The increasing demand for lower-cost, compact, and smarter communication systems and devices has resulted in extensive research dedicated to the development of novel microwave devices and technologies. This Special Issue seeks to present innovations in microwave devices and technologies, and provides technical details of novel microwave devices and technologies. The information presented in this Special Issue presents new trends and technologies in the area of smart microwave devices and systems. These novel microwave devices and technologies may be used in healthcare and IoT systems. Moreover, compact wideband devices are a crucial part in the development of smart cities and smart healthcare systems. Smart healthcare devices are equipped with sensors such as thermometers and heart rate monitors. These sensors monitor and help to maintain patients’ physical conditions. The collected medical data may be transmitted to medical centers for further diagnosis and healthcare assistance. In smart medical centers, wireless sensors are attached to patients to collect real-time medical information, such as their fever status, heartbeat, sweat, oxygen saturation readings, and other medical information. This Special Issue will be of great interest to microwave researchers and engineers, communication systems researchers and engineers, system engineers, and biomedical researchers and engineers. Moreover, this Special Issue will combine state-of-the-art research, practical microwave applications, and smart technologies. This Special Issue will bring together researchers and engineers to discuss various studies and developments in the field of microwave devices and technologies, including medical RF sensors for smart healthcare and rehabilitation applications, based on intelligent IoT systems.
Potential contributions to this Special Issue include works related to the novel design and development of microwave devices and technologies, biological RF sensors, medical IoT systems, and health monitoring systems. This Special Issue will provide opportunities for researchers and engineers to publish their novel innovations in the areas of microwave devices and technologies, medical RF devices, smart IoT systems, medical RF sensors, and communication and medical data processing, in the context of communication and biomedical healthcare applications. These contributions could address state-of-the-art microwave devices and technologies, methodologies, as well as applications of wearable communication medical devices.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Innovations in microwave technologies;
- Innovations in wearable RF technologies;
- Innovations in wireless communication systems;
- IoT systems and applications;
- Innovations in smart technologies for communication systems;
- Novel microwave components and devices.
