The rapid development of Beyond-5G and 6G communication systems has stimulated extensive research in antenna engineering, metasurfaces, RF/microwave technologies, and intelligent wireless networks. These emerging systems face increasing requirements in terms of high data rates, massive connectivity, low latency, and efficient spectrum utilization, which in turn demand advanced numerical modeling, computational techniques, and simulation-driven design methodologies.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent progress in the modeling, analysis, and design of antennas and next-generation wireless systems. It seeks contributions spanning computational electromagnetics, electromagnetic wave propagation, RF/microwave and metasurface structures, massive MIMO, RIS-assisted communication systems, integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), and beamforming techniques.
