Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Soon, 6G wireless communications will be the new standard, providing not only huge bitrates (terabits per second) and lower latency (less than 1 ms) but also enabling a “hyper-connected” paradigm that will connect users and things. Artificial Intelligence (AI) will play a major role within 6G, and thus more computation and communication resources will be consumed; their optimization is a must. There are an increasing number of new applications such as pervasive edge intelligence, ultra-massive machine-type communications, extremely reliable ultra-low-latency communications, holographic telepresence, eHealth and Parkinson's disease applications, pervasive connectivity in smart environments, UAV, autonomous driving, Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, industry 4.0 and massive robotics, massive unmanned mobility in three dimensions, and augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). Many future data-intensive applications and services, such as pervasive edge intelligence, holographic rendering, high-precision manufacturing, ultra-massive machine-type communications, and MR-based gaming, are expected to demand a higher data rate (+1Tbps) and extremely low delay (0.1ms).
This Special Issue aims to define the framework of wireless communications and edge computing in 6G, its services, and breakthrough technologies. We are soliciting original contributions that have not been previously published and are not currently under consideration by any other journals. Particular emphasis is placed on radical new concepts and ideas. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Edge computing applications for 6G wireless communications;
- 6G antenna design for massive mimo;
- 6G front-end transmitter and receiver circuits design;
- Thz communications for 6G applications;
- Artificial intelligence of things for 6G;
- Mobile communications and network architectures for a 6G system;
- Edge and cloud computing for robotics, UAV, AR/VR and automation;
- AI for edge computing of electric vehicles.

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.
