Guidelines:

If no month of publication is listed: place a comma after the page range, and proceed to Year..

For IEEE Transactions Journals: Format the full journal title as ‘IEEE Trans. [Journal Title Here]’ (without inverted commas).

If eJournal/ePeriodical does not list a DOI: Add ‘[Online]. Available: URL’ (without inverted commas, replacing URL with the URL of the source) after the Year.

If referring to an article that has been accepted or scheduled for publication: follow the format below for Author, Name of Paper, and Abbrev. Title of Periodical, followed by ‘to be published.’ (without inverted commas).

E. H. Miller, “A note on reflector arrays,” IEEE Trans. Antennas Propag., to be published.

NOTE: Always use this style when the paper has been accepted or scheduled for a future publication, and early access details are not available, i.e., do not use “to appear in.”

Check that you are using the standard abbreviations for journals and periodicals.
