Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) have become essential in positioning and navigation. However, GNSSs can be easily attacked by jamming, meaconing, and spoofing, since the GNSS signal strength is very weak and the received signal structure for civil use is open to the public. In addition, GNSS signals are not available inside buildings. GPS/INS integrated navigation systems are known to produce continuous navigation information, with various other multi-sensor integrated navigation systems being announced. In order to overcome signal attacks, many countries have plans to create alternative positioning, navigation, and timing (APNT) using local radio navigation systems such as distance measuring equipment (DME), enhanced long-range navigation (e-Loran), long-range navigation (Loran-C), and very high-frequency omnidirectional radio ranges (VORs). In order to obtain navigation information indoors, dead reckoning (DR), ultra-wide band (UWB) and wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) have been integrated. This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the latest research and development (R&D) regarding multi-radio and multi-sensor integrated navigation systems. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
