Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on the “Theory and Application of Optical Fiber Sensing” aims to highlight the latest advancements and applications of optical fiber sensing technology. Optical fiber sensors have become increasingly important in various fields such as health care, environmental monitoring, and industrial processes due to their high sensitivity, reliability, and flexibility. This Special Issue seeks to bring together researchers, engineers, and professionals to share their insights, innovations, and challenges in the theory and application of optical fiber sensing.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Fundamental principles and theoretical foundations of optical fiber sensing;
- Novel designs and fabrication techniques for optical fiber sensors;
- Signal processing algorithms and data analysis methods for optical fiber sensing;
- Applications of optical fiber sensing in biomedical, environmental, and industrial contexts;
- Fiber optic sensor networks and distributed sensing systems;
- Integration of optical fiber sensing with other technologies for enhanced performance.
We invite researchers and practitioners to contribute original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that advance our understanding and utilization of optical fiber sensing technology.

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.
