Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue delves into the forefront of applications in biomedical and environmental sciences, harnessing advancements in electromagnetic wave utilization, antenna design, and sensor technologies. The core focus lies in exploring how these technologies are revolutionizing both medical and environmental monitoring, enhancing diagnostic precision, and enabling as-of-yet unprecedented insights. 

The selected topics highlight cutting-edge research areas like 5G/6G networks for remote healthcare and environmental monitoring, the application of metamaterials in biomedical sensors, and the integration of machine learning in analyzing biomedical and environmental data. These topics closely align with the journal's emphasis on innovative and advanced sensor technologies. 

Moreover, the inclusion of topics like sustainable energy harvesting for biomedical and environmental sensors, wireless security protocols for medical and environmental sensor networks, and biocompatible wearable sensors reflects emerging trends and future directions in biomedical and environmental sensor research. This Special Issue aims to foster a deeper understanding of how these advancements are shaping the future of healthcare, environmental conservation, and precision monitoring in both biomedical and environmental applications. 

Topics:

  • Advanced biomedical antennas for wireless health monitoring—exploring innovative antenna designs for the wireless transmission of biomedical data in real-time health monitoring systems;
  • High-frequency electromagnetic waves in biomedical imaging—investigating the application of high-frequency electromagnetic waves to enhance imaging resolution in medical diagnostics;
  • Sensors and experimental methodologies for the precise control of human  electromagnetic exposure in environmental and bioelectromagnetics systems;
  • Advanced remote sensing technologies for environmental monitoring;
  • IoT-based environmental sensor networks;
  • Electromagnetic wave propagation in environmental sensing;
  • Wireless sensor networks for disaster management;
  • Antennas and sensors for climate change studies.

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.
