Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Thanks to the pervasive deployment of image sensors and LED lighting infrastructure, image-sensor-based communication, also known as optical camera communication (OCC), has attracted significant attention in recent years. Contrary to conventional optical wireless communication, image-sensor-based optical communication has inherent advantages, such as easy integration into existing embedded devices. Image-sensor-based communication also has wide applications such as in data communication, indoor localization, and sensing.

This Special Issue hence aims to highlight and assemble research and/or review articles on an image-sensor-based communication system, as well as its novel applications.

The potential topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Optical camera communication;
  • Screen-camera communication;
  • Novel modulation techniques for OCC;
  • Integrated sensing and communication with image sensors;
  • Vehicle-to-vehicle or Vehicle-to-infrastructure communication with image sensors;
  • Underwater communication with image sensors;
  • Indoor localization with OCC;
  • Image-sensor-based communication for IoT.

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.
