TAP is the top journal in the field of antenna, I don't know why it is ranked in the second zone. It would be great if the evaluation could be done more officially.

I have also encountered this situation. It was because the first two reviewers had fewer opinions, so we added more reviewers...

haha0227 2022-05-10

I submitted the manuscript in early December last year. In February this year, there was a major revision after the first round of review. During the process, it changed from "awaiting recommendation" to "under review" once. Judging from the review comments, it seems that the first two reviewers provided insufficient feedback, so the associate editor added another reviewer. In early May, I received a request for further revision and added some content. The short article has become a long one, and I am not sure if it will affect the review timeline.

It is an established journal. I submitted my article in April, and I don't know what the final outcome will be.

Recently, the review period has significantly shortened, with results being usually available within a month. The efficiency of the editors is astonishingly high.

From submission to major revision to direct acceptance, it took a whole ten months! The speed of handling manuscripts in the past two years has indeed been much slower than before, and I hope it will improve more and more!

Posted in October 2021, returned in January, accepted directly after minor revisions, my first SCI publication. The preliminary work on the paper was solid, and the paper model was detailed. Both reviewers gave positive evaluations, highlighting the quality and innovation of the paper.

The first paper I collaborated with my wife on has been a tragedy. Let me share the experience of submitting this paper. After submission, it took three months for it to go from "under review" to "editor's decision," only to revert back to "under review." After another three months, the result came out and it was rejected, with five reviewers involved. The first reviewer provided very helpful comments and believed it could be accepted with revisions. The second reviewer also saw potential in the paper but recommended thorough revisions based on their suggestions. The third reviewer only provided modification suggestions without a clear inclination. The fourth and fifth reviewers harshly rejected the paper, raising many issues that made us feel like they didn't even read the paper properly. In the end, the editor rejected it, which can only be described as regrettable. As for the reasons, it's subjective and open to interpretation.

Where did the original poster send the email from? Was it from the editor's personal email or from the submission system?

砍柴匠 2021-10-23

Two articles are under review. One has been under review for four and a half months, while the other has been under review for three months. I have sent two reminder letters through the system, but have not received any response. I have no idea what is happening on the system's end and I am anxiously waiting.

Generally, it takes about one to two months to receive feedback from the review. As long as the writing is solid, the hope of receiving positive comments is high.

The scalp has been tingling for three months. Hahaha.

It has been nearly five months since the submission, and no first-instance opinions have been received yet.

I also encountered this situation, I wonder what was the result when the original poster came back to the paper?

仲卿 2021-09-16

The review will be resolved within two months. The suggestions put forward are very pertinent and professional. It is indeed a renowned microwave top journal.

What is the difference between "Under review" and "Under Review"?

pegn 2021-08-15

The possible outcomes are all quite good. Let's find another one and see, maybe the editor is reviewing it.

Friendly reminder: There is a difference between "Under review" and "Under Review".

凤山路齐达内 2021-08-11

Increase the reviewers, it seems like an arbitration has taken place.

cluo 2021-08-11

The manuscript status changed from "Under review" to "awaiting recommendation" for a week and then changed back to "Under review." Is this a normal process for the editor's review, or did they find another reviewer?

How long does it take from submission to under review?

Just one month after submission and already awaiting decision, could it have been rejected?

凤山路齐达内 2021-06-17

How long did the Awaiting Decision status last?

TAP is a top journal in the field of antennas. First submission on December 18, 2020.
Received review on March 7, 2021, with three reviewers. The first and third reviewers had fewer comments, while the second reviewer provided more than ten comments, most of which were constructive. The associate editor suggested major revisions.
Submitted the revised version on April 1, 2021.
After a lengthy wait, the paper was accepted directly on June 6, 2021. I originally thought that after the major revisions, it would either be rejected or require minor revisions, but I didn't expect it to be accepted directly.

凤山路齐达内 2021-06-14

I also applied, it has been over two months and it is still "Under review."

mkbz 2021-06-14

Submitted in January 2021, sent an email in early June to inquire about the status of the paper to the editor. The reply stated that they hadn't found a reviewer yet, but the submission status still showed "under review." Is this considered deceptive behavior? It would be better to at least inform the author if they haven't found a reviewer in two or three months. Should the author wait or ask again? If they don't proactively send emails to inquire, there might not be any news until the end of the year!!! Outrageous.

This is the first self-written scientific paper. The entire submission and revision process lasted for 10 months. I would like to share my experience: The initial draft was not good. There were 4 reviewers, 3 of whom gave me the opportunity to revise, while one recommended rejection. After four months of revision, 3 reviewers recommended acceptance, while the other did not provide any comments.
