Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Using mmWave for 5G wireless communications will alleviate the spectrum scarcity of current 4G cellular systems operating at frequencies below 6 GHz. There is a growing number of new applications, such as virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR), autonomous driving, the Internet of Things (IoT), and wireless backhaul (replacing the labor-intensive installation of fiber optics), among other unprecedented new applications. While 6G is not yet invented, we know that it will require even higher data rates and lower latency than what 5G networks offer. Ultimately, 6G is expected to extend the capabilities of 5G further. High bit rates (up to Tbit/s) and low latencies (less than 1 ms) will enable the introduction of new services, including ubiquitous edge intelligence; machine-like communication at an ultra-large-scale; ultra-reliable, low-latency communication; holographic telepresence; eHealth and wellness applications; ubiquitous connectivity in intelligent environments; Industry 4.0 and massive robotics; 3D massive-scale unmanned mobility; augmented reality (AR); and virtual reality (VR).
For the above reasons, this Special Issue is collecting high-quality research papers and articles on the latest trends and developments in mobile cellular networks (5G, B5G, and 6G) and wireless local area networks, including IoT scenarios and their integration. It is intended that this Special Issue will publish original papers that contribute to the scientific community with solid ideas that have not been previously published or reviewed by other journals or conferences. We welcome theoretical investigations, simulations, and hands-on experiments.

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.
