Why This Wireless Communication Pioneer Publishes With IEEE

“Over a decade ago, IEEE Access invited me to write the ‘Millimeter Wave 5G: It Will Work!’ paper…That data was immediately disseminated and helped lead the world to 5G millimeter wave, even in the Wi-Fi bands. Today, IEEE Access continues to lead the way with open access literature: high-quality papers, impactful research that can be brought to the world in months—rather than years in traditional journals.”

Hear why wireless communication pioneer Ted Rappoport, founder of NYU Wireless and the David Lee/Ernst Weber Professor at New York University, publishes with IEEE.

Our web-based workflow, including electronic submission via ScholarOne Manuscripts^®, shortens the time from submission to publication and helps authors track a paper’s progress. We publish articles, not issues, so there’s no waiting for an entire journal issue to be ready. Articles are published on IEEE Xplore an average of 31 days after you provide your final article files for publication.

Sophisticated Author Tools

As you prepare your manuscript, the IEEE Author Center has valuable tools, video tutorials, and resources to guide you every step of the way.

Reach a Wider Audience With Open Access Journals

To allow authors maximum exposure for their groundbreaking research and application-oriented articles, IEEE offers three publishing options: Our 30+ technically focused gold fully open access journals span a wide range of fields. We also offer 180+ hybrid journals that support open access, including many of the top-cited titles. And IEEE Access, our multidisciplinary, gold fully open access journal, publishes high-quality research across all of IEEE’s fields of interest.

IEEE Open Access

"In deciding where to publish, you typically look for, 'Where is the conversation happening? Which journal would be most relevant for these ideas? And which journal would reach the widest audience?’ Many of my collaborators and my Ph.D. advisor were IEEE Senior members so they were really able to guide and help us decide where to publish our ideas and which journal would have the highest impact."
