How much is the page fee for this journal?

Excuse me, may I ask the reason why it's taking so long for the editor to reply to your pending recommendation? I am in the same situation after revisions, it has been almost 2 months... Has the information been partially returned to the editorial office, or all of it?

No, you don't need to worry about that, we will take care of the formatting for you

Do we need a related template for this, OP?

It's relatively easy, but the process is very slow. The boss said the quality of the journal is acceptable.
Here is the timeline I went through:
03-11-2022 Submission
02-9-2023 First round of review result, major revisions, one of which required additional experiments that were not very relevant. Reminded three times in the middle, kept looking for reviewers (that's how it is in the underworld). One-month revision period given.
23-9-2023 Revision, did not address the main points, did not add the required experiments
26-10-2023 Second round of review, minor revision accepted, still required additional experiments, two weeks for revision
08-11-2023 Submission
19-11-2023 Waiting for decision
24-11-2023 Accepted
Total time taken was one year, the language of the article needed to be precise, not very difficult, just too time-consuming. Those with time and the boss has funds can consider this

2022.10.06 First submission.
2022.11.22 Major revision with a total of three reviewers. Reviewer 2 was not very competent and claimed that my research had no significance. The other two reviewers did not question the innovative aspects and provided many suggestions for paper revisions.

2022.12.07 Revisions requested.
2023.01.15 Major revision. Reviewer 2 was replaced, probably with a new Reviewer 2. Both reviewers agreed that the revised version could be accepted directly. However, Reviewer 1 asked me to include a channel encoding experiment because it was not added in the previous revision, only mentioned in the response, and the response was only a brief one.

2023.01.20 Re-submission. I insisted on my choice and did not include the experiment, providing reasons for not including it in the response and presenting simulation results.

2023.02.26 Minor revision. Only Reviewer 1 provided feedback. Reviewer 1 was dissatisfied with me for not including the experiment in the paper and raised doubts about my channel encoding.

2022.02.27 Re-submission. Only made formatting modifications and submitted it. Because I am now more relaxed and not relying on SCI papers to graduate.

2022.04.12 Major revision. Reviewer was very dissatisfied with me because I did not include the experiment in my revised version.

2022.05.11 Re-submission. Included the channel encoding experiment.

2022.05.21 Accepted.

Now, there are two people who agree to accept it. Reviewer 1 raised two questions. Did you finally accept it?

Did you proofread it? How long did it take in total?

Why does it feel like there's something slow?

(0) 讚！ | MartinLiu

This time, it took only two months from submission to acceptance, with one month spent on revisions. The editors and reviewers were highly efficient. Strongly recommended.

Be cautious when submitting, be cautious when submitting, be cautious when submitting, important things must be said three times! The reviewing process is too slow, too slow... It takes too long from submission to acceptance.

May I ask where I can find the template for IET Communications?

I have submitted once before, and the difficulty of the journal was relatively low. After going through one revision, it took a total of four and a half months from submission to acceptance, which is a normal speed. Since IET journals are no longer included in the IEEE database, the impact factor has been declining for two consecutive years.

This journal is really slow!! 
Submission on 7th May 2021. 
Major revision on 22nd June 2021. Three reviewers in total. Reviewers 1 and 3 provided valuable suggestions for revisions. Reviewer 2 was not helpful and seemed like they didn't even read the paper, requesting to cite their own published articles. 
Revised version returned on 17th July 2021. 
System status changed to "pending recommendation" on 28th October 2021. All reviewers' comments were returned. 
Major revision on 26th January 2022. Multiple emails were sent to the editor during the revision period. The pending status finally ended, and reviewers 2 and 3 agreed to accept the paper, while reviewer 1 added three additional questions. 
Revised version returned on 31st January 2022. 
System status changed to "pending recommendation" on 27th February 2022. All reviewers' comments were returned. 

It is really slow, with the second review taking much longer than the first review, lasting a total of six months. The entire review process has now been ongoing for 10 months and has not yet concluded. Those in a hurry to graduate should be cautious about submitting to this journal!

Posted on September 26, 2020, rejected on December 27, 2020, submitted on February 28, 2021, major revisions on May 27, 2021, resubmitted on June 23, 2021, currently waiting for the outcome. The review process takes three months, which is relatively fast in the field of communications.

2019.06 submission; 2019.11 first review results received, requiring a major revision; 2020.03 second review results received, requiring a minor revision; 2020.05 accepted. It was assigned with two reviewers, and the question was still relatively easy to answer. This is my first paper published in a SCI journal on the scientific research road. Come on, young man!

At the end of November, he received a notice of overhaul after three months. He received a minor repair notice in May this year and received a formal acceptance notice in mid-June. The journal has higher language requirements and requires a native language.It is better for English people to modify the article.

There was a result of Reject with Resubmit after 6 months of IET Communications papers. After a month of revision, the journal was re-submited. It was selectd on April 15 and has not been reviewed yet.As a result, I would like to ask who can have a similar situation with me.
