Prize Plaque and honorarium up to $500 for each author (total awards not to exceed $1000).
Eligibility Publication of an original paper, in the category Communications Systems, published in the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications in the previous calendar year; author need not be a member of IEEE.
Basis for Judging Quality, originality, utility, timeliness, clarity of presentation.
Nominee Solicitation Nominations solicited by Journal Editor-in-Chief from the Editorial Board, guest Editors, and readership (through published notice).
