Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Microwave photonics is an interdisciplinary field that explores the interactions between microwave and optical signals, which aims to leverage the unique properties of photonics, such as their high speed, broad bandwidth, and low transmission loss, to enable novel solutions in microwave systems. Over the past few decades, microwave photonics has achieved significant progress, enabling a wide range of applications in fields such as radar, sensing, instrumentation, and telecommunications.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advancements in microwave photonics. Submissions of both original research papers and review articles are welcome. Technical topics of interest include, but not limited to, the following areas:
- Microwave photonics for sensing and measurement;
- Microwave photonic radar for target sensing;
- High-speed optoelectronic devices for sensing and measurements;
- Optoelectronic oscillators;
- Photonic processing of microwave signals;
- Photonic generation of arbitrary waveforms;
- Integrated microwave photonics;
- Radio over fiber for B5G/6G and IoT;
- THz photonics;
- AI in microwave photonics.

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.
