Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) networking is becoming a core technology to drive the emerging wireless evolution. Standardization of 5G New Radio and 802.11ad/ay, along with maturity of mmWave hardware, is accelerating the technology penetration into the huge consumer space. Owing to abundant frequency resource and highly directional MIMO communication paradigm, mmWave networks promise a bitrate up to dozens of Gbps, which is spurring a series of new mobile applications including untethered virtual reality (VR), 8K UHD display mirroring, instantaneous file synchronization, etc. On the other hand, the mmWave radios also open new opportunities for fine-grained sensing, like object detection and tracking, environment mapping, which not only help to understand the surrounding world, but also boost networking performance.
This special issue seeks new ideas to address the challenges of mmWave and MIMO communication and sensing systems, and puts together original research and review articles on recent advances in the field. Potential topics include but are not limited to:
- Performance analysis and optimization
- Signal processing for effective communication
- Waveform-design, beam-forming and beam-tracking algorithms for mmWave systems
- interference management and resource allocation of directional mmWave networks
- Scalable mmWave system serving large number of devices
- Human sensing via mmWave radios
- Environment mapping via mmWave radio
- mmWave communication or sensing on emerging mobile platform, like drones, cars, and robots
- Measurement studies and deployment experiences of mmWave networking/sensing systems
- integration of mmWave sensing and communication

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.
