Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Radar technology has gained widespread use in ambient assisted living due to its wireless capabilities and strong privacy safeguards. In recent years, the integration of AI and advanced signal processing techniques with radar data has enabled the monitoring of human health, including detecting abnormalities based on users' daily vital signs and activity patterns. This Special Issue on "Radar Sensing and Imaging for Healthcare Applications" highlights the latest innovations in applying radar sensing, imaging, signal processing and AI-assisted radar data analysis for health monitoring in real-world settings.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Remote sensing using RF and/or radar technology.
  • Radar sensing and imaging for indoor activity and/or vital signal monitoring.
  • Novel radar signal processing algorithms in healthcare applications.
  • Radar imaging for human–computer interactions.
  • AI-assisted radar data analysis.
  • Deep learning for radar cube data.

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.
