Special Issue on Advances in Sparse Sensor ArraysSubmission Date: 2022-06-10Special Issue "Advances in Sparse Sensor Arrays" https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/SS_A Dear Colleagues, Sparse arrays, such as coprime and nested arrays, have recently attracted considerable attention for their application in improving active and passive sensing in radar, navigation, underwater acoustics and wireless communications. Sparse array signal processing provides a systematical framework for sparse sampling and array structure with enlarged aperture, enhanced spatial resolution, increased degrees of freedom (DOFs) and reduced mutual coupling. Difference-co-array-based approaches, e.g., spatial smoothing technique based algorithms, Toeplitz-property-based algorithms and sparse reconstruction methods, can circumvent spatial aliasing and offer unique a response to targets with sparse sampling in time, space and frequency. Temporal and spatial sparse samplings encounter merits in direction of arrival (DOA) estimation and adaptive beamforming. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following: Generalizations of co-prime and nested arrays for increased DOFs Array geometry optimization for high-accuracy DOA estimation Sparse array calibration and mutual coupling effect Convex and nonconvex optimizations related to array signal processing Off-grid and grid-less solutions to super-resolution Sparse-recovery-based methods for DOA estimation Robust DOA estimation in low SNR or small snapshot number Multi-dimensional sparse array signal processing Hardware implementation and design Applications to sonar, radar, MRI, geolocation, and other areas Prof. Dr. Xiaofei Zhang Guest Editor Sensors is an open-access journal indexed by SCI, SSCI, Scopus, and PubMed.

Special Issue on D2D Communications in 6G Heterogeneous Ultra Dense NetworksSubmission Date: 2022-06-30Special Issue "D2D Communications in 6G Heterogeneous Ultra Dense Networks" https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/2D_6g Dear Colleagues, While a wireless transmission distance will become much shorter in case of ultra dense networks, D2D communication is envisioned to continuously evolve into the 6G wireless communication networks. Such an evolution is able to efficiently support a much larger and more diverse set of devices and applications. Heterogeneous ultra dense networks (HUDNs) integrated with D2D communications is considered as one of the main elements of the future 6G networks. D2D communications in HUDNs can improve users’ quality of experience while reducing both power consumption and latency and increasing the network throughput, enhancing proximity services. HUDNs can also give access through the unlicensed spectrum and thereby increase the overall spectral efficiency. Moreover, D2D communication can enable various differnet vertical applications such as vehicular and public safety communications.

Special Issue on Smart Grids and Green Communications Submission Date: 2022-07-10Special Issue "Smart Grids and Green Communications" https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/SG_GC Dear Colleagues, The term smart grid refers to intelligent electricity distribution networks. Smart grids combine electricity distribution grids with the intensive use of information technologies, enabling data provision and analysis to both electricity distribution companies and consumers themselves. By providing traditional electricity grids with intelligence capabilities, it is possible to accurately determine consumption habits and improve grid efficiency as well as contribute to energy savings. On the other side, a significant proportion of energy worldwide is consumed by information and communication technologies and infrastructures, with the wireless sector being one of the main contributors to this consumption. Therefore, it is critical to emphasize green communications, that is, communications characterized by energy efficiency, reduced CO2 emissions, and low-cost deployments, enabling the reduction of energy consumption as well as the associated carbon footprint. Keywords artificial intelligence big data carbon footprint energy consumption energy efficiency energy forecasting green communications information and communication technologies Internet of Things smart grid Prof. Dr. Javier M.
