Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integration of energy harvesting technologies with wireless sensors represents a groundbreaking advancement in the field of sensor technology. This Special Issue will explore the latest developments and applications of wireless sensors that utilize energy harvesting techniques to achieve sustainable and autonomous monitoring solutions. By harnessing ambient energy sources such as solar, thermal, and mechanical energy, these sensors can operate independently without the need for frequent battery replacements, making them ideal for use in remote and inaccessible environments. The focus of this Special Issue aligns with the scope of the Sensors journal by addressing innovative sensor design, deployment strategies, and the enhancement of sensor networks’ sustainability and efficiency. We invite contributions that cover theoretical, experimental, and practical aspects, showcasing the potential of energy harvesting wireless sensors in various applications such as environmental monitoring, industrial automation, healthcare, and smart cities.

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.
