SUBMISSION AND PRESENTATION GUIDELINES
Three types of papers can be submitted to GASS 2023:
- A. a summary paper, of length between 2 and 4 pages
- B. an extended abstract of 1 page maximum
- C. a full paper for the student paper competition (SPC), of maximum length 10 pages
Please use the Word templates from the links above, or the LaTeX templates.
In all cases, it will be required during submission to indicate one session of relevance for the paper. The descriptions of these sessions can be found here, either specific to a Commission or in the “joint sessions” list. Joint sessions are always listed under the sessions of the leading Commission.
In case no fit can be found between the contents of your paper and the session listed, it is possible to submit in an “open session”, i.e. receiving works relevant to the Commission but not well identifiable anywhere else.
PDF INSTRUCTIONS
You will need to submit a PDF version of your paper and to maintain compatibility it is important that you follow the instructions below.
- All PDFs for which the author opts to submit to IEEE Xplore should be validated through PDF eXpress for Xplore compatibility. You can find instructions on how to access PDF eXpress here. The conference ID is 57860X.
- We strongly recommend to use the PDF eXpress to check compatibility even if you do not want to have your paper submitted IEEE Xplore.
PRESENTATION
A registered author can only present a maximum of 2 papers. Commission Tutorials, ECR Tutorials, General and Public Lectures do not count toward this limit.
Three categories of presentations will be possible:
- Oral presentation on site in Sapporo + optional online pre-recorded video presentation prepared according to pre-recording guidelines + optional online PDF file with a size preferably less than 25 MB;
- Poster on site in Sapporo + optional online pre-recorded video presentation prepared according to pre-recording guidelines + optional online PDF file with a size preferably less than 25 MB;
- Pre-recorded online video presentation prepared according to pre-recording guidelines + optional online PDF file with a size preferably less than 25 MB.
Authors of Category 3 papers will automatically receive an invitation to upload their video, with an option to also upload a PDF file. Authors of Category 1 and Category 2 on-site presentations will need to write to ingeursi@ugent.be if they are interested in uploading their optional online material (video and/or PDF file).
All Summary Papers (type A) physically presented at GASS 2023 (categories 1 and 2) will be submitted to IEEE Xplore (unless the author opts out). Summary papers with pre-recorded presentations (category 3) will not be submitted to IEEE Xplore, and will only be published in the URSI GASS 2023 Proceedings.
All extended abstracts (type B) in all presentation categories will not be submitted to IEEE Xplore, and will only be published in the URSI GASS 2023 Proceedings.
Full papers for the student paper competition (type C) will not be submitted to IEEE Xplore nor published in the URSI GASS 2023 Proceedings, in order to allow the authors publishing the material in URSI Radio Science Letters, Radio Science, or in another journal.
Presenting authors of all papers must register by the early bird deadline, otherwise their paper will be removed from the program. Exceptions may be granted upon a request to the URSI secretariat.
YOUNG SCIENTIST AWARD AND STUDENT PAPER COMPETITION
As in the past URSI GASSs, we will run the two young-scientist-related programs, namely the Young Scientist Award (YSA) and the Student Paper Competition (SPC). The application guidelines for these programs can be found at:
