Overview

The scientific conference ranking presented on this page offers a comprehensive assessment of conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology. Developed by Research.com—one of the leading platforms dedicated to science research across all major domains—this ranking embodies a commitment to providing trusted and authoritative data on academic contributions since 2014.

The position of each conference within the ranking is determined based on a unique bibliometric score formulated by Research.com. This score incorporates the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists featured at the conference over the preceding three years, offering a multifaceted measure of a conference’s influence and standing within the scientific community. The Impact Score values cited were gathered as of 2024-11-27, ensuring the timeliness and relevance of the data.

The rigorous ranking process entailed the examination of more than 2,262 conferences, selected through an extensive and meticulous evaluation of over 26,934 scientific documents published in the last three years by 9,385 leading and well-respected scientists specializing in Engineering and Technology. This depth of analysis underscores the complexity and thoroughness behind the compilation of this ranking, reinforcing its credibility and value as a reference for the academic and professional community.

For a detailed explanation of the bibliometric analyses and the comprehensive methodology employed in determining the ranking scores, please refer to our Methodology Page.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing at International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Georgios B. Giannakis (32 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Dirk Slock (27 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Geert Leus (27 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Bjorn Ottersten (26 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 2 more than at the previous edition,
  • Wolfgang Utschick (25 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing at International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Minnesota (55 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • Institut Eurécom (51 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Supélec (47 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Vienna University of Technology (36 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Technische Universität München (32 papers) published 6 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2017 edition, 0.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 11.80% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 8.99% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.54% of all publications and 60.67% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Pursuing a degree in Electronics and Electrical Engineering opens doors to diverse career paths, often supported by flexible online learning options. Many students seek programs that fit their schedules, making best online self paced colleges an attractive choice. These programs allow learners to progress at their own speed without compromising quality.

Cost is another critical factor, especially for international and working students. Fortunately, some accredited institutions offer courses with no upfront cost burden, as highlighted in universities with no application fee. This makes higher education more accessible and affordable.

While Electronics and Electrical Engineering primarily focus on technical domains, exploring complementary certifications can enhance career prospects. For instance, online medical billing and coding classes offer alternative pathways in the growing healthcare industry.

For those interested in bridging careers, programs like medical assistant to lpn bridge program provide upward mobility in healthcare fields, demonstrating how online education supports diverse professional goals beyond core engineering disciplines.
