Most-cited papers in China Communications

An overview of Internet of Vehicles

Fangchun Yang, Shangguang Wang, Jinglin Li et al. · 1 Oct 2014

The new era of the Internet of Things is driving the evolution of conventional Vehicle Ad-hoc Networks into the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). With the rapid development of computation and communication technologies, IoV promises huge commercial interest and research value, thereby attracting a large number of companies and researchers. This paper proposes an abstract network…

Deep learning for wireless physical layer: Opportunities and challenges

Tianqi Wang, Chao-Kai Wen, Hanqing Wang et al. · 1 Nov 2017

Machine learning (ML) has been widely applied to the upper layers of wireless communication systems for various purposes, such as deployment of cognitive radio and communication network. However, its application to the physical layer is hampered by sophisticated channel environments and limited learning ability of conventional ML algorithms. Deep learning (DL) has been recently applied…

A survey on terahertz communications

Zhi Chen, Xinying Ma, Bo Zhang et al. · 8 Mar 2019

With the exponential growth of the data traffic in wireless communication systems, terahertz (THz) frequency band is envisioned as a promising candidate to support ultra-broadband for future beyond fifth generation (5G), bridging the gap between millimeter wave (mmWave) and optical frequency ranges. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive literature review on…

Federated learning for 6G communications: Challenges, methods, and future directions

Yi Liu, Xingliang Yuan, Zehui Xiong et al. · 1 Sep 2020

As the 5G communication networks are being widely deployed worldwide, both industry and academia have started to move beyond 5G and explore 6G communications. It is generally believed that 6G will be established on ubiquitous Artificial Intelligence (AI) to achieve data-driven Machine Learning (ML) solutions in heterogeneous and massive-scale networks. However, traditional ML techniques require…

6G Visions: Mobile ultra-broadband, super internet-of-things, and artificial intelligence

Lin Zhang, Ying‐Chang Liang, Dusit Niyato · 1 Aug 2019

With a ten-year horizon from concept to reality, it is time now to start thinking about what will the sixth-generation (6G) mobile communications be on the eve of the fifth-generation (5G) deployment. To pave the way for the development of 6G and beyond, we provide 6G visions in this paper. We first introduce the state-of-the-art…

China Communications template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the China Communications format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the China Communications template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does China Communications use?
China Communications uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," China Communications, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to China Communications?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready China Communications document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the China Communications template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the China Communications format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is China Communications?
China Communications, published by IEEE. It is a engineering and computer science journal, published by IEEE.
Can I export a submission-ready China Communications PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official China Communications template (the IEEEtran class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
