How do The Letters compare to its peer publications?
The Letters is the top place to publish microwave and wireless component work in rapidly disseminated form. The main competitors are: Electronics Letters: (focuses on electronic devices, concepts, circuits, and systems. Microwave and RF emphasis is not required.) ; IEEE Electron Device Letters (focuses on electron devices. Circuits and systems, guided waves, and their high-frequency aspects are not emphasized.); IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters (does not emphasize devices, circuits, or systems); International Journal of Numerical Modeling: (Focuses more on numerical aspects. Does not consider measurement, fabrication and testing of device, circuits, or systems.); Microwave & Optical Technology Letters: (Scope is not highly defined, which makes it a good alternative for unsuccessful authors, whose manuscripts are rejected by MWCL). Widely-accepted measures exist for comparing periodicals with respect to the impact they have on the field. For the Letters these measures are
