While mature GNSS solutions exist for outdoor spaces, more than ten years of research and development of sensing technologies have not yet led to a widely available offer of generic and affordable standard solutions for indoors. Nonetheless, year after year the insight that researchers have offered into indoor localization provides us with more methods and the array of usable sensors widens with technological progress. Hybridization of sensors data, smart capture of environmental data, benchmarking of sensing and positioning technologies are all at the heart of indoor positioning and indoor navigation innovations. This Special Issue of the IEEE Sensors Journal is devoted to the presentation of innovations and improvements in the field of advanced sensors and sensing technologies for indoor positioning and navigation including theory, design, modelling, configuration, characterization, sensor data processing, data analysis, and applications. Original research contributions and review papers are sought in areas including: • Sensors and sensing technologies for indoor navigation and tracking methods: AoA, TOF, TDOA based localisation, RSSI and magnetic fingerprinting, PDR, IMU and hybrid systems, UWB, ultrasound, optical systems, RFID, radar, device-free systems, mapping, SLAM • Sensing frameworks and fusion for hybrid positioning • Cooperative sensing, machine learning systems • Sensors for building indoor maps and 3D models • Sensors for human motion monitoring and modelling • Sensors for robotics and UAV positioning and navigation • Sensors for seamless systems: HS-GNSS, indoor GNSS, pseudolites, RTK GNSS with handheld devices, mitigating GNSS error when switching to indoor, industrial metrology & geodetic systems, iGPS • Self-contained sensors for positioning and navigation • Wearable and multi-sensor systems for indoor navigation and human motion • Sensing for location-based services and applications • Sensors benchmarking, assessment, evaluation, standards Solicited and invited papers shall undergo the standard IEEE Sensors Journal peer-review process.

With the widespread use of automobile and other vehicles, research studies of future vehicular networks are urgently needed to meet the service requirements of connected vehicular users pave the way for the future development of autonomous ecosystems. The future vehicular networks can become much more challenging than current conventional vehicular systems in terms of autonomous controls, security, and high mobility, connectivity and compatibility. With the emergence of new communication technologies and applications, the important features such as intelligent network functionalities, large-scale network deployments, and smart integrated services are greatly in demand. Recently, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) enabled distributed intelligence has become a promising approach to address the aforementioned intelligent data and service challenges in the premise of large-scale decentralized vehicular networks. Distributed intelligence exploits the computational capabilities of edge components (e.g., vehicles) in future vehicular networks. Previously unmanageable network and service problems under centralized system architectures can be efficiently solved by applying distributed approaches, e.g., crowd intelligence, multi-agent learning, and edge computing. Future vehicular networks will benefit from distributed intelligence. Therefore, it is essential to develop novel vehicular network techniques enabled by distributed intelligence, addressing various challenges related to future vehicular networks. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: § Distributed intelligence theories, frameworks, and algorithms for future vehicular networks § Distributed intelligence for physical layer and infrastructure issues in future vehicular networks § Distributed intelligence for MAC and network routing in future vehicular networks § Distributed intelligence empowered vehicular networks in the 5G, 6G systems and beyond § Mobile and edge intelligence frameworks and algorithms design for future vehicular networks § Distributed and collaborative machine learning for future vehicular networks § Distributed data privacy, security, and data persistence approaches in future vehicular networks § Distributed intelligence enabled green and energy-efficient vehicular networks § Market models and network economics in future vehicular networks with distributed intelligence § Simulations, experiments, and testbeds of distributed intelligence for future vehicular networks § Distributed intelligence in automatic driving, traffic engineering, and other related transportation studies § Use cases and applications highlighting distributed intelligence for future vehicular networks IMPORTANT DATES Manuscript submission: 15 April 2021 Notification of Authors: 15 June 2021 Revised Manuscripts Due: 30 June 2021 Final Editorial Decision: 15 July 2021 Final Papers Due: 30 July 2021 Publication Date: Fourth Quarter 2021 ----------------------------------------------------------- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Manuscripts need to be submitted through the journal’s submission website at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ojvt <https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ojvt>.

Networked swarms of such UAVs promise breakthroughs in public safety, commercial, and military applications including search-and-rescue, disaster response, infrastructure inspection, environmental monitoring, virtual/augmented reality, and ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance). The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers working at the intersection of wireless networking, mobile computing, sensing, robotics, and/or planning to address a myriad of fundamental technical challenges that must be solved before UAV swarms (and, more broadly, multi-UAV systems) can be safely, effectively, and widely deployed. Since many of these challenges will not be able to be addressed without the help of UAV swarm simulation platforms, experimental testbeds/prototypes, and experimental evaluations, papers on these topics are especially encouraged. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Communication and networking protocols for UAV swarms - Resilient communication protocols for multi-agent planning and control - Delay-tolerant networking for UAVs - Network topology control for performance optimization (connectivity, throughput, etc.) - Wireless localization for UAVs - Communication architectures and technologies for UAV air-traffic control - UAVs in 4G/5G cellular networks - UAV integration in the urban IoT - Aerial video streaming for virtual/augmented reality - Data offloading and mobile edge computing with UAVs - Spectrum management and interference management techniques for UAV networks - Air-to-air, air-to-ground, and ground-to-air channel modeling for UAVs - Cyber-security for UAVs - UAV swarm network simulation platforms - Onboard AI for UAV-enabled aerial intelligence - UAV swarm network testbeds, experimental evaluation, and prototyping Submissions may be up to 6 pages in length (including figures and references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 point or greater.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Communication protocols for IoT and cyber-physical systems; * Routing protocols and scheduling algorithms; * Dependability (real-time, reliability, availability, safety); * Fault-tolerant systems; * Low-power wireless and networked embedded systems; * Reliability despite harsh environmental conditions; * Edge Computing; * Experiences from real-world deployments; * Benchmarking and testbeds; * Wireless coexistence in dense deployments; * Radio interference identification and mitigation; * Communication standards and technologies for IoT and cyber-physical systems; * Industrial IoT systems and networks; * QoS in the IoT, CPS, and Industry 4.0 contexts; * Wired and wireless convergence; * Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards; * Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services; * Opportunistic scheduling and software-defined networking; * Network coding, virtualization, and slicing; * Multi-technology hardware and software solutions; * Operations, administration and management (OAM), and monitoring; * Data processing and edge computing; * Real-time big data analytics; * Energy sustainability, efficiency and harvesting. ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
