Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The electromagnetic spectrum has gradually become a cornerstone of economic and social development. As integrated radar systems, communications, navigation, and other sensor systems have advanced, remote sensing and electromagnetic spectrum sensing are transforming from a process of detection to recognition, from classical models to deep learning, from single sensor to multi-sensor information fusion, and from single function to composite sensing. In response to challenges related to the complex electromagnetic environment ranging from several kHz to over 100 GHz, future remote sensing and electromagnetic spectrum sensing frameworks should possess self-learning and environmental adaptability, leading to the creation of systematic and comprehensive intelligent systems. This Special Issue will highlight recent progress related to these topics.

This Special Issue will address issues related to state-of-the-art remote sensing and electromagnetic spectrum sensing approaches applicable to data acquisition and signal processing for radar, communication and navigation, providing cross-disciplinary ideas to address present and future challenges. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Remote sensing;
  • Cognitive radar systems;
  • Collaborative radar network;
  • Intelligent spectrum sensing;
  • Spectrum sharing and cooperation;
  • Electromagnetic space security;
  • Spectrum perception and cognition;
  • Distributed collaborative sensing;
  • Ubiquitous intelligent sensing;
  • Resilient PNT (positioning, navigation and timing);
  • Signal processing;
  • Target tracking;
  • Multi-sensor information fusion;
  • Automatic target recognition;
  • Automatic modulation classification.

Original research articles and reviews are both welcome in this Special Issue.

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.
