Finally it's my turn to write a comment. It was all tortures. Submitted on 2020-11-20, rejected on 2020-12-27. The review speed is quite fast. Of the 4 reviewers, one suggested major revision and resubmit, one was more satisfied with it, and the other two said that it was not innovative enough. In general, the reviewers were quite professional. This journal has a great development potential, but only 118 articles are published each year. The difficulty of acceptance is not low. You must be careful! I will need to edit it again and submit it to other journals. Good luck to me! Whoops.

2020-06-07 submitted; 2020-06-10 Awaiting review scores; 2020-07-10 Awaiting AE recommendation; 2020-07-12 Awaiting EIC recommendation; 2020-07-13 Reject! I personally feel that review experts are more responsible, and big and small questions can be raised. If the article is very logical and the analysis of the results is in place, they should give you at least an opportunity to revise.

Manuscript received, 07-Sep-2019; Major revision decision, 09-Oct-2019; major revised, 30-Oct-2019; Accept, 27-Nov-2019. The review speed of this journal is the fastest among that of IEEE Transactions series. The editor is very responsible, who doesn’t delay. It took one month for the first revision, and it took less than a month for revision. It took one month for the second revision, and it was accepted in the end. It took less than three months in total. There were four reviewers, two of them made good comments, one made many moderate comments, and the other one made poor comments. In the end, major revision was required. After the major revision, the reviewers were satisfied, and it was finally accepted. The suggestion I gave to you who will submit articles to this journal is that you should revise the article carefully. The editor is really nice and responsible.

Is it not the same reviewer when resubmitting a rejected manuscript?

Have you ever encountered a situation where after major repairs, there are still minor repairs to be done, and then more minor repairs? How can it be just minor repairs all the time, isn't there a limit to it? And all these minor repairs are just trivial issues.

May I ask how long it will take for the application to be in review progress after resubmission?

May I ask if it is reasonable for my submission to be directly transferred to UR status and not change for two months?

First time from July to September 24: rejection and resubmission
Second time from December 24 to February 25: rejection and resubmission
Third time from early May 25 to the end of June 25: rejection
The journal prefers to reject and resubmit, and each time after resubmission it is not the same reviewers as before.

It has been almost half a month since I got my AreaED card.

The reason why the manuscript was sent back to the editorial office and then re-sent to the reviewers is because the system automatically changes the status when feedback from all three reviewers is received. However, if the editor notices that not all feedback has been received, the status will be changed back to waiting for reviewer feedback.

The first review resulted in recommendations and revisions, which were then significantly modified during the second review. However, the scores from the second review were approved some time ago but have been stuck in the "Awaiting AE Recommendation" status for half a month. Is this reasonable?

(0) Thank | Notorious Duck

Maybe AE thought it necessary to add more reviewers, or maybe there was a reviewer who hadn't reviewed the paper yet, so it was sent back for reevaluation.

Hey guys, can someone explain what's going on with this situation: Scores on April 15, changed to AE Recommendation on May 18, back to Scores that evening, and still Scores today...
