Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Radar technology has significantly evolved, broadening its scope across automotives, healthcare, remote sensing, and security. Enhanced signal processing and hardware advancements have made radar systems more precise, enabling real-time monitoring and classification. In automotives, radar aids ADAS for autonomous driving by detecting objects and avoiding collisions. In healthcare, non-contact vital sign monitoring through radar has become vital, measuring heart rate, respiration, and posture changes. Remote sensing applications like SAR and InSAR have revolutionized geological exploration and disaster forecasting. Radar is also indispensable in security surveillance, operating effectively in adverse conditions. The integration of AI and ML will further boost radar's capabilities, fostering innovative applications and ushering in an era of intelligent sensing.

We invite submissions on innovative radar system designs, advanced signal processing algorithms, and emerging applications that harness the potential of radar technology. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Radar target detection and tracking algorithms;
  • High-resolution radar imaging;
  • Artificial intelligence and machine learning for radar processing;
  • Novel radar architectures and fully digital arrays;
  • Radar spectrum sharing and optimization;
  • Radar-based healthcare monitoring and human activity recognition;
  • Radar applications in autonomous vehicles and safety systems;
  • Advanced radar signal processing for environmental sensing;
  • Next-generation radar technologies for 6G and IoT;
  • Experimental validation and real-world demonstrations.

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. Electronics 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.
