Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue on "Radar and Multimodal Sensing for Ambient Assisted Living" focuses on the latest advancements in and innovative applications of radar technology, radar information and multimodal sensing in monitoring human activities in real-world scenarios such as smart homes and ambient assisted living environments.
This collection of research articles highlights the integration of radar systems with advanced data processing techniques to enhance the accuracy, reliability, and usability of these systems, such as the use of micro-Doppler analysis to monitor the movements of humans and animals, providing detailed information on their activities and behaviors, as well as the use of radar data to facilitate advanced activity recognition, enabling precise identification of various actions and states. By combining data from various radar domains, distributed radar systems, and integrating radar with multimodal sensing and information fusion, deep learning-based techniques can be employed to improve classification and regression tasks across different sensing modalities, ensuring the reliable performances, robustness and accuracy of sensing systems.
Overall, this Special Issue aims to inspire the future development of radar technologies and applications for use in smart, ambient assisted living environments.

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.
