General Submission Information

All paper and abstract submissions must be received in PDF format via this web site on or before Sunday, 21 January, 2024 (23h 59m at International Date Line; UTC-12 hours); this is equivalent to 6h 59m am 22 January, 2024 Eastern US Time. Sunday, 4 February, 2024 (23h 59m at International Date Line; UTC-12 hours); this is equivalent to 6h 59m am 5 February, 2024 Eastern US Time. This is a firm deadline. Papers will not be accepted after this date. Only electronic submissions in PDF format will be accepted. Please consult this web page for the latest instructions, templates, and format examples. Please do not include page numbers on submitted documents. All papers must be written in clear, idiomatic English. Papers that are not presented at the conference (i.e. no-show papers) will be excluded from IEEE Xplore (they will be removed from the proceedings before the proceedings are submitted to IEEE Xplore). Address all AP-S and URSI correspondence, including inquiries concerning papers, the technical program, and copyright forms, to papers@2024.apsursi.org.

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. Authors may only register against a maximum of 2 papers. If an author has received acceptance for more than 2 papers it is recommended that a co-author registers against those papers to limit the number of presentations required by the same author. Each author/co-author must register separately. In the event that this is not possible due to funding or visa issues, another registered attendee must be identified to serve as presenter.

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.

Papers that are not presented at the conference (i.e. no-show papers) will be excluded from IEEE Xplore (they will be removed from the proceedings before the proceedings are submitted to IEEE Xplore).

AP-S Submissions

Requirements

  • Must be 2 pages in length, including text, references, and figures.
  • Must be in IEEE 2-column format.
  • Authors may optionally choose not to include the paper in IEEE Xplore.
  • The introduction of the paper should clearly indicate the unique aspects of the submission and how it relates to previous work.

By default, 2-page papers will be submitted to IEEE Xplore. Authors may optionally choose not to include the paper in IEEE Xplore.

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 2024 AP-S Student Paper Competition Coordinators (spc@2024.apsursi.org).

If you wish to participate in the student paper competition, check the appropriate box during the submission process so that you will be prompted to upload all of the required documents.
