Special Issue Information

New advances in information technologies, circuits, systems and communication protocols have made 
possible the deployment of underwater sensor networks. These issues have lead researchers to 
propose new underwater sensor nodes, sensor node placement, protocols for their communication, 
architectures, and study new ways to communicate with higher bandwidth at higher distances. 
Moreover, the range of underwater applications is growing fast because of the last research in 
oceanography, marine science and aquiculture, so there is a need of underwater sensor networks in 
order to support these disciplines.

This special Issue is tries to collect unpublished works on theory and practice on underwater 
sensor networks, with special interest on real implementations and deployments. We also seek new 
proposals on wireless communication technologies.


Submission

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. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and 
will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well 
as 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 refereed 
through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission 
of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Sensor and Actuator 
Networks is an international peer-reviewed Open Access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. For the first 
couple of issues the Article Processing Charge (APC) will be waived for well-prepared 
manuscripts. English correction and/or formatting fees of 250 CHF (Swiss Francs) will be charged 
in certain cases for those articles accepted for publication that require extensive additional 
formatting and/or English corrections.
