Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optical fiber communication is a key technology for the development of modern information society. It has the advantages of high bandwidth, low attenuation, minimal latency, and high security. Optical fiber communication as the cornerstone of massive data transmission has been widely used to support various applications. However, with the rapid growth of data traffic and the increasing demand for high-quality services, the traditional optical fiber communication systems are facing many challenges, such as spectrum scarcity, network complexity, and energy efficiency.
To address these challenges, this Special Issue aims to present the latest research progress and future prospects of optical fiber communication, with a focus on topics including, but not limited to, the following:
- Digital twin for optical communications;
- Wideband optical transmission systems;
- Machine learning in optical communications;
- Optical fiber channel modeling;
- Optical network fault management;
- Autonomous driving optical networks;
- Advanced digital signal processing;
- Fiber nonlinearity and mitigation;
- Data center optical networks;
- Optical network automation;
- Resource allocation schemes;
- Digital longitudinal monitoring;
- Large language model for optical networks.
This Special Issue welcomes original and high-quality research papers, review articles, and short communications that cover the above-mentioned topics, as well as other related topics in optical fiber communication. The submissions should demonstrate the novelty, significance, and potential impact of the research work, and provide sufficient details and references for the reproducibility and verification of the results. The submissions will undergo a rigorous peer-review process by the editorial board and the reviewers of 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. Electronics 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 2400 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.
