Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Owing to factors such as the rising demand for electronics and automobiles, increasing concern for surveillance and security, and the development of wireless technology and smart cities, the global Smart Sensor market value is estimated to reach USD 101 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 19%.
Smart Sensors can autonomously sense, gather, judge, analyze, and process external environmental data using multi-element integrated circuits, with sensors, communication modules, microprocessors, drivers and interfaces, and software algorithms all embedded into one system-level device. In addition to the high reliability and cost performance typically exhibited by Smart Sensors, some of their most important advantages are their self-check, self-calibration, and self-diagnosis capabilities.
New diagnostic approaches and techniques are required to maximize the capability of these features to transform data into useful information for Fault-Tolerant Measurement and Control Systems.
For this Special Issue, we invite authors from academia and industry to submit new research on technological innovations and novel applications in the automatic diagnosis of sensor systems, with a special focus on real-time applications. Research topics include, but are not limited to:
- Innovative electronic and mechatronic sensors with self-diagnosis capabilities;
- New techniques and approaches for Instrument Fault Detection Isolation and Accommodation (IFDIA);
- New architecture for Fault-Tolerant Control Systems;
- Fault diagnosis in Distributed Measurement Networks;
- The industrial applications of sensor fault diagnosis;
- Testing algorithms and approaches for estimating sensor reliability and life-cycles.

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.
