Frequently Asked Questions about our bibliographic format converter
How does the bibtex to ieee converter work.
The BibTeX to IEEE online converter uses the same technology that powers the Paperpile reference management app . Your input is parsed, matched against Paperpile's own bibliographic database, and finally converted to your format of choice. All input and output data is deleted 24h after job completion.
What is a BibTeX file?
A BibTeX file contains bibliographic data in BibTeX format and usually has the file extension *.bib. A BibTeX file can be viewed and edited using plain text editors, and many reference management programs support both the import and export of files in BibTeX format.
What is a reference list in IEEE style?
Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) referencing style mandates preceding each source in-text with a number e.g. [1]. All sources cited in-text are then arranged ascendingly by number in the reference list. Each reference is preceded by the corresponding number and is arranged in the same order by which it appears in the text.

Contained in this page are some basic guidelines for formatting a paper in IEEE style. The best way to format your paper may vary slightly depending on which field you’re working in and the specifics of where your paper is being submitted, so remember to double-check against any submission guidelines provided by the organization, instructor, or supervisor to whom you are submitting your paper.
- The paper title should be centered at the top of the first page, in 24-point type.
- Author’s name (or authors’ names)
- Author affiliation(s)
- City & country location(s)
- E-mail address(es).
- The body of the paper should be in 10-point type, and formatted to appear in two columns. The columns on the last page should be the same length; this may require adding a column break after you have finished the body of your paper.
- All papers must begin with an abstract and index terms.
Note to Practitioners
Nomenclature.
- Acknowledgements
- Papers may be divided into sections and subsections; IEEE has guidelines for primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary section headings.
- IEEE papers begin with a drop cap two lines deep, followed by the next 8-12 characters (or 1-2 words, whichever is appropriate) in all caps.
- Figures, tables, and equations should each be numbered consecutively, but separately. They should also be centered in the column in which they appear.
An IEEE abstract should be written as a single paragraph roughly 200 words long, give or take 50 words. (Abstracts shorter than 150 words or longer than 250 risk incurring the irritation of the editors.) It should be self-contained, and should concisely & accurately summarise the contents of your paper. It is encouraged to try and include three or four keywords or key phrases to help interested readers to find your article.
Abstracts should be simply formatted, without anything that requires specialized typesetting or consultation of material outside the abstract. Abbreviations, footnotes, references, tables, graphs, charts, figures, and displayed mathematical equations are specifically forbidden. The goal of an abstract is to be a simple, accessible, and self-contained microcosm of your paper.
Here is an example of how you might format an abstract:
The abstract should be followed by index terms. These should be in a paragraph separate from the abstract. Index terms are similar to keywords and are provided by the paper’s author to help journals, editors, and readers categorize, archive, or locate your paper. IEEE maintains a standardized list of index terms to make this process easier and its categories more consistent. The most recent version of the IEEE Taxonomy can be found on the IEEE website. Here is a link to the 2019 version of the taxonomy .
Index terms should be given in alphabetical order; the first should be capitalized, and the rest lowercase unless they contain acronyms or other components that inherently require capitalization.
Here is an example of how you might format a set of index terms:
Section Headings
Dividing one’s paper into clearly labelled sections increases readability, and is encouraged. Typical sections include Introduction and Conclusion sections as well as sections within the body of the paper that relate to aspects of its content.
Primary headings are enumerated with Roman numerals followed by a period, set in small caps, and centered above the text.
Secondary headings are enumerated with capital letters followed by a period, set in italics and title case, left-aligned, unindented, and separated from the text by a line break.
Tertiary headings are enumerated by Arabic numerals followed by a close-parenthesis, set in italics and title case, left-aligned, indented one em, and separated from the text by a colon. There is no line break between the heading and the text.
Quaternary headings are enumerated by lowercase letters followed by a close-parenthesis, set in italics and sentence case, left-aligned, indented two ems, and separated from the text by a colon. There is also no line break here.
Here is an example of what the various headings should look like in your document:
I. Primary Heading
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Fermentum leo vel orci porta non pulvinar neque laoreet suspendisse.
A. Secondary Heading
Odio ut enim blandit volutpat maecenas volutpat blandit aliquam. Amet consectetur adipiscing elit pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et.
1) Tertiary Heading: Libero justo laoreet sit amet cursus sit. Enim nec dui nunc mattis enim ut tellus elementum sagittis.
a) Quaternary heading: Nibh ipsum consequat nisl vel pretium lectus. Malesuada proin libero nunc consequat interdum varius.
Special Headings
In addition to the standard headings above, there are a few special cases. References and Acknowledgments are formatted like primary headings, but are not enumerated.
Appendix headings should be arranged under a separate system, though formatted like primary headings; if there is only one appendix, it requires neither a number nor a name, but is simply labelled Appendix. If there are multiple appendices, they should be numbered and titled, though one should note that the numbering system for appendix headings is wholly separate from that of section headings; they start at one, regardless of how many sections were present within the paper. Appendices may be enumerated either with Roman numerals or with capital letters, according to the preference of the author, as long as it is done with consistency. Unlike section headings, the number will come after the word “Appendix”: Appendix A rather than A. Appendix. They should have titles, set on the line below them but still formatted like a section heading.
Here is an example of how you might format the beginning of an appendix:
Regarding the Vermiform Process
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. At augue eget arcu dictum varius.
If at any point you wish to refer back to a previous section within the text of your paper – e.g. “As mentioned in [section]…” – you should capitalize the word “Section” and separate subsections from the primary section numeral with a hyphen. E.g., “Section IV,” “Section II-A,” “Section III-B4c,” etc.
The Note to Practitioners, if you choose to include one, goes below your abstract. The aim of the Note is to, without repeating any of the information from your abstract, explain the practical applications of your work without use of jargon. This is so that engineers working on practical problems, who may not have significant background in your particular field, will be able to understand the application of your work to theirs.
A Note to Practitioners can be more than one paragraph, but is otherwise formatted like the abstract.
Here is an example of what a Note to Practitioners might look like:
Note to Practitioners – Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Enim sit amet venenatis urna cursus eget nunc scelerisque. Feugiat vivamus at augue eget arcu dictum. Lorem donec massa sapien faucibus et molestie. Pellentesque nec nam aliquam sem.
Vel quam elementum pulvinar etiam non quam lacus suspendisse. Velit scelerisque in dictum non consectetur a. Phasellus vestibulum lorem sed risus ultricies tristique nulla. Gravida neque convallis a cras semper auctor. At elementum eu facilisis sed odio morbi quis commodo.
Cursus eget nunc scelerisque viverra mauris in. Fames ac turpis egestas integer eget. Viverra mauris in aliquam sem fringilla ut morbi.
If your paper uses a number of different symbols, variables, and so forth, you may want to avoid having to define them within the body of your paper by providing a list of definitions up front; this is called the Nomenclature section. If you choose to include a Nomenclature section, it goes immediately before the Introduction section.
The heading for the Nomenclature section is formatted like a primary heading with no numeral, and the section itself is formatted generally the same as body text, including the italicization of variables. The main difference is the way in which the text must be aligned: the terms being defined are flush against the left margin, and the definitions are aligned one em-space after the longest defined term.
If you are working in a word processor, the easiest way to do this is often to insert a table into your document with invisible borders below the Nomenclature heading. See the images below for an example. Note that the images have been zoomed in to enlarge the text for clarity purposes.

Free IEEE Citation Generator
Generate accurate IEEE style citations quickly and automatically, with MyBib!
🤔 What is an IEEE Citation Generator?
An IEEE citation generator is a tool that creates citations in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) citation style. It does this automatically by taking the identifier for an article or document, such as a website URL, book ISBN, or journal article ISSN (supplied by you), and detecting the remaining details. Then it formats all the details in the correct IEEE citation style.
👩🎓 Who uses an IEEE Citation Generator?
The IEEE citation style was developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and is based on the Chicago citation style. It is used in the area of computer science, technology, and engineering by students of these subjects, and academics writing to be published in journals of these subjects.
🙌 Why should I use an IEEE Citation Generator?
Every academic field--not just engineering--will recommend using a tool to record references to others' work in your writing. A citation generator like MyBib can record this data, and can also automatically create an accurate reference list from it, with the necessary in-text citations too.
⚙️ How do I use MyBib's IEEE Citation Generator?
MyBib's IEEE citation generator was designed to be fast and easy to use. Follow these steps:
- Search for the article, website, or document you want to cite using the search box at the top of the page.
- Look through the list of results found and choose the one that you referenced in your work.
- Make sure the details are all correct, and change any that aren't. Then click Generate!
The generator will produce a formatted IEEE citation that can be copied and pasted directly into your document, or saved to MyBib as part of your overall bibliography (which can be downloaded fully later!).

What are IEEE citations?
IEEE referencing is a widely used system for attributing credit to authors whose findings, facts or theories have contributed to a new research paper.
The IEEE reference format is the standard referencing format set by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and is based on the widely used Chicago referencing style.
Where many styles have the author’s name shown within the text, IEEE uses a numbering system to make sure the paper is still easily readable. The number within the text correlates to a numbered reference at the end of the research paper to make it clear which source contributed to which section of the paper.
How to create IEEE citations
Each IEEE reference has a corresponding IEEE citation within the text. The in-text citation is shown as a number within square brackets and allows the reader to find the full reference in the numbered bibliography at the end of the text.
The full IEEE reference should include all the necessary information for the reader to be able to find the exact source of the information, theory or finding that contributed to the paper or essay.
When referencing in IEEE style, there are different formats for each source type – for example a book should be formatted differently to a website or academic journal in the reference list.
A lot to think about? You can use Cite This For Me’s IEEE reference generator to create your references with a click. Simply search for the book, journal or website you want to reference, set it to IEEE style and have the whole thing generated automatically for you.

Frequently asked questions
How do i format the ieee reference page.
The IEEE reference page consists of a list of references numbered in the order they were cited in the text. The title “References” appears in bold at the top, either left-aligned or centered.
The numbers appear in square brackets on the left-hand side of the page. The reference entries are indented consistently to separate them from the numbers. Entries are single-spaced, with a normal paragraph break between them.
Frequently asked questions: IEEE
When a webpage or website doesn’t list an author, you can usually just leave the author out of your IEEE website citation , starting with the page title instead.
When there’s no clear title, you can write your own description of the page or website in brackets in place of the title, e.g., “[Personal blog].”
On the IEEE reference page , you should abbreviate the names of publishers (in IEEE book citations ), journals (in IEEE journal article citations ), universities, companies, conferences, and months. Authors’ first and middle names should also be presented as initials.
A list of the standard abbreviations for many common words can be found here . Note that these words are not abbreviated when they appear in the title of the source (e.g., the book or article title).
You can cite specific pages from a source in your IEEE in-text citations by including them within the brackets along with the number of the reference. A single page is preceded by “p.”, multiple pages by “pp.”: [11, p. 36].
To cite different pages from the same source, use the same reference number followed by different page numbers. Don’t include multiple references for the same source on your IEEE reference page , and don’t include the page numbers there.
When a whole book is written by the same author (or group of authors), you should list information about the whole book in your IEEE book citation . This applies even if you only refer to one chapter of the book.
When different chapters of a book are written by different authors, you should include a reference for the chapter you cite, with the chapter author at the start and the editor of the whole book mentioned late in the reference. If you cite multiple chapters, include a separate reference for each.
In an IEEE book citation , you should mention the edition of the book (e.g., second edition, revised edition) when this information is provided on the cover or title page of the book. Otherwise, you can assume it’s the first or only edition and omit this part.
Editions are written in abbreviated form (e.g., “11th ed.”).
If you cite the same source more than once in your writing, use the same number for all of the IEEE in-text citations for that source, and only include it on the IEEE reference page once. The source is numbered based on the first time you cite it.
For example, the fourth source you cite in your paper is numbered [4]. If you cite it again later, you still cite it as [4]. You can cite different parts of the source each time by adding page numbers [4, p. 15]. Don’t use “ ibid .”
You should include an IEEE in-text citation whenever you integrate a source into your text by quoting , paraphrasing , or summarizing it. The citation appears in the sentence where the source is integrated, often after the author name or after any quoted text:
Narayana [15, p. 22] describes the encounter as “ copacetic .”
In IEEE citation format , you should list the names of up to six authors in a reference on your IEEE reference page . If the source has seven or more authors, just list the first author’s name followed by “ et al. ” (in italics): “F. Gupta et al. , …”
In the main text, if you mention a source with three or more authors, you should use “et al.”: “Fowler et al. [11] argue that …”
Note that you’re not required to mention author names at all in the text though—just the IEEE in-text citation number is enough, in which case “et al.” isn’t needed: “[11] argues that …”
An IEEE in-text citation consists of a number in brackets at the relevant point in the text, which points the reader to the right entry in the numbered IEEE reference page at the end of the research paper . For example, “Smith [1] states that a new protocol will indubitably pay off.”
A location marker such as a page number is also included within the brackets when needed: “Smith [1, p. 13] argues that the poet made facetious comments.”
IEEE citation format is defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and used in their publications.
It’s also a widely used citation style for students in technical fields like electrical and electronic engineering, computer science, telecommunications, and computer engineering.
