Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The evolution of mobile communication standards from 2G to 5G has been accompanied by the emergence of several new services and usages. The fifth-generation new radio (NR) presented in 2020 has completed its development cycle and has reached a level of maturity that allows it to be deployed. In fact, it is already necessary to prospect for new technologies that will enable the correction of shortcomings observed in the field of information technology to have precise, reliable, and fast localization.
It is worth emphasizing that localization, sensing, and communication must all coexist, sharing the same time-frequency-spatial resources in the envisioned future communication systems. There are different mechanisms to enable such sharing, including coexistence, cooperation, and co-design. In fact, sensing and location information can guide communication, e.g., for beamforming or for handovers, while communication can support localization and sensing by sharing map information between devices.
The proposed Special Issue encourages authors from academia and industry to submit new research results regarding technological innovations for the positioning sensing and navigation in sensor networks.

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.
