Paper Submission Guides

All Submissions

For an accepted paper to be listed in the technical program, one of the authors of the paper must be registered by May 31, 2022. In the event that this is not possible due to funding or visa issues, another registered attendee must be identified to serve as presenter prior to May 31, 2022.

The language of the symposium is English. Each document that you submit (one-page abstract or two-page summary) should be formatted exactly as indicated in the corresponding template. (The templates are already written with the correct formatting, so replacing the text in the templates with your own text is an easy way to use the templates.) Please do not include page numbers on your submitted documents.

A signed (electronically) IEEE copyright form or URSI Publication Agreement must accompany all submissions. Papers submitted without copyright forms will be rejected. Instructions for electronically signing and submitting copyright forms can be found under "Steps for Submission" below.

Please note that the symposium reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from the proceedings submitted to IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.

AP-S Student Paper Competition

To foster active involvement of students and to ensure a future membership of highly qualified researchers in the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, the Society sponsors a Student Paper Competition at its annual Symposium. The complete Rules and Guidelines are available here. Questions about the competition should be e-mailed to the 2022 AP-S Student Paper Competition Coordinators (spc@2022apsursi.org).

Eligible entries in the Student Paper Competition must have only one student author, and that student must be the first author. The student's primary advisor must certify that the student meets the conditions for authorship and that all coauthors’ contributions to the paper are primarily advisory or editorial. All Student Paper Competition entries will be evaluated using a double-blind review process, which requires the upload of two versions of the paper – one regular and one double blind paper. Detailed instructions and guidelines are available on the conference Web site. Failure to follow all instructions will result in the removal of the paper from the competition and its placement in the regular submission paper pool. Compliant papers accepted for the student paper competition are included in the regular Symposium program, with the finalists required to participate in an additional competition poster session. Questions should be directed to the AP-S Student Paper Competition Committee at spc@2022apsursi.org.

Rules on the Written Submission

  1. Only one student paper competition (SPC) submission per student is allowed.
  2. The student does NOT have to be a member of IEEE.
  3. For consideration in the student paper competition, the student must be the only student author, the first author on the paper, and a student at the time of paper submission.
  4. The student’s primary advisor must respond to an email sent to the advisor's educational institution address that will be sent after the paper is submitted. The email response will certify that the student meets the conditions in #3 and that all coauthors’ contributions to the paper are primarily advisory or editorial.
  5. All SPC papers will be evaluated using a double-blind review process. In double-blind reviews, the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers in addition to the usual practice of having the identities of the reviewers withheld from the authors. Therefore, a student must submit two copies of the SPC paper to the Web site — one without any identifying information, including authors' names, affiliations, funding sources, etc., and one intended for publication in the Symposium proceedings that includes authors' names and affiliations, etc. Other than the identifying information, the two versions of the paper should be identical. Additional information and guidelines regarding paper preparation are available here.

Special Sessions

Papers for the special sessions must comply with all submission requirements and instructions for authors, including the submission deadline. A list of the special sessions is available in the submission Web site.

Please note that there are three types of special sessions, AP-S only, URSI only, and joint AP-S/URSI, and this establishes the submission format to be used. An AP-S only session requires papers in the AP-S format, and an URSI only session requires papers in the URSI format. Either the AP-S or URSI format can be used for the joint AP-S/URSI special sessions. Questions on special sessions should be directed to the special session chair at specialsessions@2022apsursi.org. Organizers of the special sessions will be provided additional instructions.
