Abstract – This template represents the basic guidelines and desired layout final manuscript of
International Journal of Electrical Engineering and Applied Sciences. Abstract should not
contain any equations, references, or footnotes. This article plays the role of a template as well
as the guidelines for prospective authors who will have to prepare the final manuscript accepted
for publication by International Journal of Electrical Engineering and Applied Sciences. The
abstract must be between 150-250 words, where it must be written in one paragraph and should
not contain displayed mathematical equations and tabular material. A good abstract must have
components on the introduction, problem statement, methodology/approach and the results
conclusion.

Keywords: enter key words or phrases in alphabetical order, separated by commas, maximum 5
keywords

I. Introduction
These instructions give you the guidelines for
preparing papers for International Journal of Electrical
Engineering and Applied Sciences. Use this document
as a template if you are using Microsoft Word 6.0 or
later. Otherwise, use this document as an instruction set.
The electronic file of your paper will be formatted
further at the International Journal of Electrical
Engineering and Applied Sciences. Define all symbols
used in the abstract. Do not delete the blank line
immediately above the abstract; it sets the column
format.
II. Format of Manuscript
The paper should be written in A4 (210mm by
297mm) size. Your manuscript should be on two side of
a sheet, with margins of 2 cm on both left and right side,
and 2.44 cm on top and 3 cm bottom side, respectively,
of each page. Distance from edge must be 0.55 cm from
header and 2 cm from footer. The suggested length of a
regular paper would be 4~12 pages including the
references list, not numbered and in similar style to this
template. The subsequent headings are called
subsection. All fonts are in Times New Roman.
This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 Unported License, permitting
copy and redistribution of the material and adaptation for commercial and uncommercial use.
A. Main Title and Author Affiliation
The title of the paper must be centered at the top of
the page with 16 pts font not typed in capital letter.
Leave two lines spaces of 10 pts and provide the
name(s) of the author(s) written in first name-last
(surname) format with the first is initialized and the
latter in full name. For the case of Chinese name, the
middle name and the last name should be initialized,
followed by the family name (surname) in full (e.g. C.
W. Lee for Lee Chong Wei). The font size of the
authors is 12 pts. The authors’ affiliation should appear
in 10 pts after the authors names’, where only email of
the corresponding author is written. Corresponding
author in general is the person who handles the
manuscript and correspondence during the publication
process, including approving the article proofs. For
paper with several authors, those listed must have
significant contribution to the paper.
B. Abstract and Keywords
Leave one line space of 10 pts and then give the
abstract.

Conflict of Interest
The authors declare no conflict of interest in the
publication process of the research article.
Author Contributions
For research articles with several authors, a short
paragraph specifying their individual contributions must
be provided. Authorship must be limited to those who
have contributed substantially to the work reported.
Example : Author 1: Data collection, analysis, writing –
original draft preparation; Author 2: Supervision, draft
review and editing, investigation; Author 3:
Conceptualization, review; Author 4: Funding
acquisition, project administration.
References
The IJEEAS uses the IEEE citation style. All
citations must be numbered consecutively in square
brackets [1]. The sentence punctuation should be put
after the brackets [2]. Multiple references [2], [3] are
each numbered with separate brackets [1]-[3]. In
sentences, refer simply to the reference number, as in
[3]. Do not use ‘Ref. [3]’ or ‘reference [3]’ except at the
beginning of a sentence. The list of references should be
arranged in the order of appearance in the text, not in
alphabetical order. The text body of the reference has to
be 8 pt, single spaced. Author must ensure at least 30%
of the references in the list are within 5 years of
publication.
