Submit a Paper
Prospective authors can submit original contributions or survey papers for review and publication in TTE. All manuscripts must be submitted through IEEE’s Author Portal.
Papers submitted for consideration should report on original results not previously presented in any other archival publication, including but not limited to any IEEE Transactions. Notwithstanding this requirement, papers previously presented and published in a conference record or proceedings sponsored by any of TTE’s sponsoring societies (IAS, IES, PELS, PES, RS, and VTS) will be considered (provided that the paper is significantly improved when compared with the conference version of the paper). Copyright release may be required if the conference publication is copyrighted by an entity other than IEEE. The authors are responsible for obtaining a copyright release if it is required for submission to TTE. It is not required for a paper to have been presented or published at a conference to make it eligible for consideration by TTE.
Authors must indicate in their submission any prior presentation and publication at a conference or prior submission to any other publication.
TTE only publishes papers in English. Inadequate English or the use of other languages obscure the technical content of the manuscript and will be grounds for rejection. It is therefore the authors’ responsibility to ensure that papers submitted for review are formulated in acceptable English.
Please note that TTE does not publish correspondence papers (with possible exceptions based on the decision of and upon invitation from the Editor in Chief).
Please also visit the IEEE’s Author Center, which includes a graphics analyzer tool, PDF checker, reference preparation assistant, and more.
Please contact our Editorial Assistant if you have further questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Submissions
Is it possible to submit a paper that was previously rejected?
You may resubmit your manuscript if it was previously rejected. However, you must follow the original submission guidelines (including paper length limits) and indicate in the relevant fields during the submission process that it was previously submitted, including the previous manuscript ID. Please also include a cover letter summarizing how the reviewers’ comments were addressed and the major changes in the revised manuscript.
Are there any page length limits for papers submitted to TTE?
Yes, all original submissions must respect the following page limits (including references and appendix):
– Regular Papers: 6 to 10 pages
– Review Papers: 6 to 12 pages
For revisions and manuscripts that received a “Reject with the possibility to resubmit” decision, the maximum length is 15 pages.
I received an email from the Editorial Assistant stating that my paper is overlength but it respects TTE’s page limits. Why?
Per IEEE’s policy, the overlength fee applies to all papers exceeding 8 pages, starting at page 9. If your paper is overlength, then it is over 8 pages.
Where should I upload my cover letter?
Please upload it in the “Cover Letter” field in the relevant step in IEEE’s Author Portal. This is read by TTE’s (Deputy) Editor in Chief, Area Editors, and Associate Editors to determine whether your paper is within the scope of TTE and check for any conflicts of interest. It is not mandatory to add a cover letter.
Is it possible to extend my revision deadline?
Yes, you may receive a one-time two-week deadline extension for each manuscript. Please contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant as soon as possible to request an extension. (Please note that you can also contact us if your deadline has already expired, although it is not recommended.)
What files do I need to upload when resubmitting a paper following a “Reject with the possibility to resubmit” decision?
Please upload the following documents:
– A clean version of the paper (without highlights).
– A highlighted version of your paper (showing the parts that have been modified).
– A detailed response letter addressing all the reviewers’ and editors’ comments.
– A cover letter summarizing the main changes made in the new version and the previous manuscript ID.
Review Process
When can I expect a decision to be made on my manuscript?
TTE strives to send a decision on both original and revised submissions within 50 to 60 days from the day your manuscript was submitted.
My paper has been under review for over 60 days. Is there a problem?
Please contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant if your paper was submitted more than 60 days ago and you still have not received a decision email. Make sure to add your manuscript’s ID and title in your email. Our Editorial Assistant will contact the relevant persons directly to address the issue.
A reviewer/editor mentioned an attached document in their comments but I cannot find it. What should I do?
Please contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant. They will send you the missing document as soon as possible so you can proceed with your revisions.
I disagree with the decision on my manuscript. Can I appeal the decision?
Please contact TTE’s Editor in Chief. You may also check IEEE’s guidelines and policy regarding appeals here.
Publication
My paper was accepted for publication some time ago and I submitted my final files, but it has not been officially published yet. When will it get published?
There are two stages in the publication process:
(1) Early Access: When your files are processed by the production team, the paper becomes available in the Early Access section of IEEE Xplore. However, it is not indexed in the Web of Science.
(2) Published in an Issue: As soon as possible, your paper will be assigned to an upcoming issue of TTE. Once this happens, page numbers will appear in IEEE Xplore and the paper will be indexed in Web of Science. This step can take on average 20 to 25 weeks from when your paper is accepted for publication.
I need my paper to be searchable in Web of Science to graduate. Is it possible to speed up the publication process?
Unfortunately, TTE cannot prioritize your paper for this reason. Please consider the average publication time when planning your graduation (or application for a program). You can also use the decision email (letter) from the Editor in Chief as proof of your paper’s acceptance for future publication in one of TTE’s upcoming issues.
I noticed an error in an article I (co-)authored that has already been published. What should I do?
Please contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant as soon as possible by mentioning the error(s) that need to be corrected and attach a PDF and text file with the corrected files. You will be put in contact with TTE’s production team to proceed with the required corrections.
Is it possible to add or remove an author after my paper is accepted for publication?
No, all authors must be included in the author list throughout the review process.
Additional Questions
Is it possible to receive a certificate for my reviewing activities?
Yes, please contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant and provide your first and last names as entered in your author account. Please note that we do not send certificates for a specific manuscript review. If you need this type of review evidence, please use the email you received from the Associate Editor confirming the submission of your review for the manuscript. Certificates cover your overall reviewing activities.
How much time does it take for the Editorial Assistant to respond to my email?
Deadline extensions, missing reviewer’s comments, and certificates: Within 3 working days.
Pending manuscript decisions over 60 days: Within 7 to 10 days.
All other queries: As soon as possible depending on the urgency of the message.
Please refrain from sending follow-up emails for these queries.
How do I contact TTE’s Editorial Assistant?
Please send an email to editorial.tte@gmail.com. Please always include your manuscript’s ID and title if your query is related to a manuscript.
