It should be understandable to colleagues from a broad range of scientific disciplines. Related review should be put in "Introduction" section shortly and concisely to explain the difference (“gap”) of the manuscript with other papers.

The "(Proposed) Method" should describe the step of research and justification of how to get the data correctly, while the "Results and Discussion" section is the place to explain results in depth and to elaborate the meaning of results.

Equations should be written using native MS Word Equation or MathType. Do not use image for any equation, as the quality will be degraded during the production of pdf version. The equation should be numbered consecutively. The number is put in the right side. Do not forget to explain any variables or parameters in the first use, especially under the equation.

Reference

Organization and citation of the bibliography use IEEE style in numbers, just like in [1, 2] or [3-7]. The terms in foreign languages are written italic. All references should be appeared and cited properly in the text. Each citation should be written in the order of appearance in the text.
