The aim of IEEE Transactions on Communications is to expand the discussion of research in Electronic engineering, Algorithm, Communication channel, Fading and Computer network. The close relationship between Spread spectrum and Code division multiple access is one of the points of interest dissected in Electronic engineering research. Decoding methods, Block code, Concatenated error correction code, Convolutional code and Turbo code are some of the facets of Algorithm tackled in it.
Decoding methods research presented in IEEE Transactions on Communications encompasses a variety of subjects, including Theoretical computer science and Error detection and correction. Communication channel research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Wireless, Topology and Transmitter. The research on Fading featured in IEEE Transactions on Communications combines topics in other fields like Multipath propagation and Control theory.
Issues in Computer network were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Distributed computing, Wireless network and Throughput. The journal centers on topics in Network packet, with a focus on Packet switching. The journal dives deep in exploring the relationship between the study of MIMO and Telecommunications link.
The main points discussed in the journal papers deal with Electronic engineering, Algorithm, Communication channel, Fading and Computer network. The journal publications hold forums on Electronic engineering that merge themes from other disciplines such as Phase-shift keying, Rayleigh fading, Spread spectrum, Bit error rate and Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing. While work presented in the most cited publications provide substantial information on Communication channel, it also covers topics in Transmitter, Transmission (telecommunications) and Wireless.
The main research concerns discussed in IEEE Transactions on Communications are Communication channel, Algorithm, Wireless, Telecommunications link and Computer network. It holds forums on Communication channel that merges themes from other disciplines such as Transmitter and Transmission (telecommunications). The majority of Algorithm studies in the journal are focused on the subject of Decoding methods.
Some problems in Wireless that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Electronic engineering, Distributed computing, Interference (wave propagation) and Communications system. Electronic engineering research discussed connects with the study of Antenna (radio). While Telecommunications link is the key highlight in the journal, it also covered some subjects on Mathematical optimization and Resource allocation.
A key indicator for each journal 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 in IEEE Transactions on Communications (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in IEEE Transactions on Communications (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
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 2021 edition, 12.70% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 9.76% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.18% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.92% of all publications and 54.14% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal 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 journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
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.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, 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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
