This document may be used as a template for
preparing your Transactions/Journal paper. You
may type over sections of the document, cut and
paste into it, and/or use markup styles.
Format
If you choose not to use this document as a
template, prepare your technical work in single-
spaced, double-column format, on paper 21.6×27.9
centimeters (8.5×11 inches or 51×66 picas). Set top
and bottom margins to 16.9 millimeters (0.67 inch
or 4 picas) and left and right margins to about 16.9
millimeters (0.67 inch or 4 picas). Do not violate
margins (i.e., text, tables, figures, and equations
may not extend into the margins). The column
width is 88.9 millimeters (3.5 inches or 21 picas).
The space between the two columns is 4.2
millimeters (0.17 inch or 1 pica). Paragraph
indentation is 4.2 millimeters (0.17 inch or 1 pica).
Use full justification. Use either one or two spaces
between sections, and between text and tables or
figures, to adjust the column length.

1Financial support should be acknowledged here. Example: This work was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Commerce under Grant BS123. The title should be in uppercase and lowercase letters, not all uppercase. The name and affiliation (including city and country) of each author must appear on the paper. Full names are preferred in the author line, but are not required. Initials are used in the affiliation footnotes (see below). Put a space between authors' initials. Do not use all uppercase for authors' surnames. F. A. Author is with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Boulder, CO 80305 USA (e-mail: author@boulder.nist.gov). S. B.

Section Headings A primary section heading is enumerated by a Roman numeral followed by a period and is centered above the text. A primary heading should be in capital letters. A secondary section heading is enumerated by a capital letter followed by a period and is flush left above the section. The first letter of each important word is capitalized and the heading is italicized. A tertiary section heading is enumerated by an arabic numeral followed by a parenthesis. It is indented and is followed by a colon. The first letter of each important word is capitalized and the heading is italicized. A quaternary section heading is rarely necessary, but is perfectly acceptable if required. It is enumerated by a lowercase letter followed by a parenthesis. It is indented and is followed by a colon. Only the first letter of the heading is capitalized and the heading is italicized.

TABLE I Samples of Times Roman Type Sizes and Styles

Figures and Tables Figure axis labels are often a source of confusion. Try to use words rather than symbols. As an example, write the quantity “Magnetization,” or “Magnetization, M ,” not just “ M .” Put units in parentheses. Do not label axes only with units. As in Fig. 1, write “Magnetization (kA/m)” or “Magnetization (kA·m -1),” not just “kA/m.” Do not label axes with a ratio of quantities and units. For example, write “Temperature (K),” not “Temperature/K.” Figure labels should be legible, approximately 8- to 10-point type. The IEEE Graphics Analyzer Tool enables authors to pre-screen their graphics for compliance

with IEEE Transactions and Journals standards before submission. The online tool is located at http://graphicsqc.ieee.org/. To insert images in Microsoft Word, position the cursor at the insertion point and either use Insert | Picture | Insert Picture from File or copy the image to the Windows clipboard and then use Home | Paste | Paste Special | Picture. All figures and tables must be in place in the text near, but not before, where they are first mentioned. Large figures and tables may span both columns, but may not extend into the page margins. Figure captions should be below the figures; table captions should be above the tables. Do not put captions in “text boxes” linked to the figures. Do not put borders around your figures. Use the abbreviation “Fig. 1,” even at the beginning of a sentence. Numbering Number reference citations consecutively in square brackets [1]. The sentence punctuation follows the brackets [2]. Multiple references [2], [3] are each numbered with separate brackets [1]- [3]. Refer simply to the reference number, as in [3]. Do not use “Ref. [3]” or “reference [3]” except at the beginning of a sentence: “Reference [3] shows….”

Fig. 1. Magnetization as a function of applied field. (Note that “Fig.” is abbreviated and there is a period after the figure number followed by two spaces.)

Number footnotes separately with superscripts (References | Insert Footnote). Place the actual footnote at the bottom of the column in which it is cited. Do not put footnotes in the reference list. Use letters for table footnotes. Check that all figures and tables are numbered correctly. Use arabic numerals for figures and Roman numerals for tables. Appendix figures and tables should be numbered consecutively with the figures and tables appearing in the rest of the paper. They should not have their own numbering system. Units Metric units are preferred for use in IEEE publications in light of their global readership and the inherent convenience of these units in many fields. In particular, the use of the International System of Units (Systeme Internationale d'Unites

Current and previous research interests end the paragraph. The third paragraph begins with the author’s title and last name (e.g., Dr. Smith, Prof. Jones, Mr. Kajor, Ms. Hunter). List any memberships in professional societies other than the IEEE. Finally, list any awards and work for IEEE committees and publications. The following is a biography of Nikola Tesla as an example.

Nikola Tesla (M’1888, F’17) was born in Smiljan in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, on July 9, 1856. He graduated from the Austrian Polytechnic School, Graz, and studied at the University of Prague. His employment experience included the American Telephone Company, Budapest, the Edison Machine Works, Westinghouse Electric Company, and Nikola Tesla Laboratories. His special fields of interest included high frequency. Dr. Tesla received honorary degrees from institutions of higher learning including Columbia University, Yale University, University of Belgrade, and the University of Zagreb. He received the Elliott Cresson Medal of the Franklin Institute and the Edison Medal of the IEEE. In 1956, the term “tesla” (T) was adopted as the unit of magnetic flux density in the MKSA system. In 1975, the Power Engineering Society established the Nikola Tesla Award in his honor. He died on January 7, 1943.
