IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics is a quarterly peer-reviewed journal sponsored by the IEEE Consumer Technology Society and published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, focused on the engineering and research aspects of mass-market electronics, systems, software and services for consumers, whose lineage dates back to 1952 and which adopted its current title in 1975, with a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 9.9《IEEE 消费电子汇刊》（IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics）是由 IEEE 消费技术学会（IEEE Consumer Technology Society）主办、电气电子工程师学会（IEEE）出版的季刊同行评审期刊，聚焦面向消费者的量产电子产品、系统、软件与服务的工程与研究，其历史可追溯至 1952 年并于 1975 年采用现刊名，2025 年影响因子为 9.9。

Scope

• The main focus of the journal is the engineering and research aspects of the theory, design, construction, manufacture and end use of mass-market electronics, systems, software and services for consumers该刊主要关注面向消费者的量产电子产品、系统、软件与服务的理论、设计、构造、制造与最终使用方面的工程与研究。
• Its scope spans communications, control systems, informatics, entertainment, computational intelligence and standardization for consumer-oriented technology其范围覆盖通信、控制系统、信息学、娱乐、计算智能以及面向消费技术的标准化。
• Papers are judged on the emphasis placed on technology rather than product, and new products qualify only where an unusual technical achievement has been attained论文以技术含量而非产品本身为取舍标准，新品类成果仅在取得特别技术突破时方可刊出。
• The journal publishes original research, state-of-the-art papers, industry papers, tutorial papers, standard application case studies and literature reviews该刊发表原创研究、前沿综述、产业论文、教程论文、标准应用案例研究以及文献综述。
• Each year the society selects one outstanding contribution for the Chester Sall Memorial Award as the best paper of the Transactions该学会每年从本汇刊中评选一篇最佳论文，授予切斯特·萨尔纪念奖（Chester Sall Memorial Award）。
• It is abstracted and indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded, Compendex and Scopus, and holds the first quartile in both the electrical and electronic engineering category and the telecommunications category该刊被（SCIE）、（Compendex）与（Scopus）收录，在电子电气工程与电信学两个类别均位居第一四分位。

History

• The publication dates back to 1952, when it carried editorial contributions from the IRE Professional Group on Broadcast and Television Receivers该刊最早可追溯至 1952 年，彼时刊载来自无线电工程师学会广播与电视接收机专业组（IRE Professional Group on Broadcast and Television Receivers）的编辑成果。
• It appeared as IRE Transactions on Broadcast and Television Receivers from 1958 to 1962 and then as IEEE Transactions on Broadcast and Television Receivers from 1963 to 19741958 至 1962 年间它以（IRE Transactions on Broadcast and Television Receivers）之名出版，1963 至 1974 年改称（IEEE Transactions on Broadcast and Television Receivers）。
• In 1975 the publication adopted its current title, IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, continuing the same volume numbering1975 年该刊改用现名（IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics），并延续同一套连续卷号至今。
• The sponsoring body now known as the IEEE Consumer Technology Society long carried the older IEEE Consumer Electronics Society designation in the journal's own statement of purpose其主办学会今称 IEEE 消费技术学会（IEEE Consumer Technology Society），而该刊早期的办刊宗旨文本长期使用旧名 IEEE 消费电子学会（IEEE Consumer Electronics Society）。
• The journal is issued quarterly by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, whose publishing operations are based in Piscataway in the United States该刊由电气电子工程师学会（IEEE）按季出版，其出版机构位于美国新泽西州的皮斯卡塔韦（Piscataway）。
• Its Journal Impact Factor rose from 2.947 in 2021 and 4.414 in 2022 to 10.9 in 2024 and 9.9 in 2025其影响因子由 2021 年的 2.947 与 2022 年的 4.414 升至 2024 年的 10.9，2025 年为 9.9。

• The Editor-in-Chief is Alireza Jolfaei of Curtin University in Australia, who coordinates the journal's editorial board主编为澳大利亚科廷大学（Curtin University）的 Alireza Jolfaei，负责统筹期刊编委会。
• Senior Editors and Associate Editors run the peer-review process, and where a review stalls the Editor-in-Chief or a Senior Editor steps in to render the final decision高级编辑与副编辑负责同行评审流程，若审稿停滞则由主编或高级编辑代行最终裁决。
• Submissions are handled through the journal's online system and are assessed under the IEEE peer-review policy来稿经期刊在线投稿系统提交，并按 IEEE 同行评审政策予以评估。
• The editorial board draws specialists from many countries, a substantial share of them coming from industrial research and development rather than academia alone编委会成员来自多个国家和地区，其中相当一部分来自产业研发而非仅来自学术界。
• As a hybrid title, the journal publishes primarily under subscription while also offering authors an optional open-access route against a publication charge作为混合型期刊，该刊以订阅出版为主，同时为作者提供需付费的可选开放获取途径。
