Guest Editorial Special Issue on the 12th Annual IEEE International Conference on Wireless for Space and Extreme Environments (WiSEE 2024)

THE IEEE International Conference on Wireless for Space and Extreme Environments (WiSEE) has established itself as a premier interdisciplinary forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners addressing the unique challenges of wireless technologies operating in space, aerospace, and other harsh or remote environments. Since its inception in 2013, WiSEE has demonstrated steady growth and increasing technical breadth. After the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2024 edition of WiSEE clearly reflected the renewed momentum of the community and the continued relevance of research on wireless systems for extreme environments. WiSEE 2024 was co-located with the IEEE RFID Conference on RFID Technology and Applications (RFID-TA 2024), further strengthening the interaction between the RFID and wireless-for-extreme-environments research communities.
