Article Processing charges
The SSRG International Journal of Electronics and Communication Engineering - IJECE does not charge any submission fee. Authors may submit manuscripts free of cost, and there are no charges for the internal review process (i.e., submission to the first decision).
To support and maintain high publishing standards—including peer review, plagiarism checking, AI writing checking, copyediting, typesetting, journal management, digital hosting, and long-term archiving—an Article Processing Charge (APC) is applicable only after successful peer review and acceptance of the manuscript. Articles accepted for publication in IJECE are made available under a full open-access model, ensuring unrestricted access to readers worldwide.
