Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Sensors is pleased to announce a Special Issue on "Energy Harvesting Technologies for Wireless Sensors". This Special Issue aims to explore the advancements and applications of energy harvesting technologies providing on-board solutions for wireless sensors. It seeks to shed light on the innovative solutions and cutting-edge research that contribute to sustainable energy generation and utilization.

This Special Issue invites researchers, scientists, and practitioners from academia and industry to share their original research, reviews, and case studies focusing on the development, implementation, and utilization of energy harvesting technologies from various sources and employing various mechanisms to realize self-powered wireless sensors. This Special Issue aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange to address the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving field.

Contributions to this Special Issue may cover a wide range of topics related to energy harvesting technologies for wireless sensors, including (but not limited to) the following:

  • Piezoelectric energy harvesting systems for wireless sensors.
  • Harvesting energy from ambient sources using smart materials.
  • Wind energy harvesting technologies for wireless sensors.
  • Magnetoelectric sensors and energy harvesters.
  • Broadband energy harvesting devices for sensing applications.
  • Energy management and optimization in smart sensor networks.
  • Integration of energy harvesting with Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
  • Energy-aware data collection and transmission in sensor networks.
  • Energy harvesting for self-powered wireless sensor networks.
  • Multimodal energy harvesting technologies for wireless sensors.

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
