Index Terms—Enter key words or phrases in alphabetical order, separated by commas. For instance, “beamforming, HetNets, mmWave, spectrum sharing.” I. INTRODUCTION This document is a template for your project report. You shall closely follow this format, and any changes of the font size and line spacing are not allowed. The project scope and requirements for the final report are detailed in the next Section. II. REQUIREMENTS A. Project Scope and Requirements You have been allocated a topic area for your report (see the announcement on iLearn). There is a file on iLearn that lists reference papers for each of the topics. For your topic, you are required to: • read at least 3 of the papers listed • find and read at least 2 other papers on the topic • write a critical review of your topic which includes: o summarizing and referencing the 3 papers that you chose from the list o information from the other papers that you found yourself. You are required to demonstrate good overall understanding of the topic in general, as well as a degree of detailed understanding of the selected papers. B. Final Report Format The final report must be written as a review article in the format that would be submitted for publication in an IEEE journal, with abstract, index terms, introduction, main body, conclusions and references. You shall use this word template to prepare your final report. In particular, for the main body, the font is Times New Roman of size 12, and the line spacing is set to be 1.05 lines. For the References, the font is Times New Roman of size 10. The page margins are set to be 2.5cm for both the top and bottom, and at least 3cm for both the left and right, corresponding to the normal margin setting in Microsoft Word. Reports are expected to be roughly 10 pages in length with the above formatting. When submitting the report, it needs to be in pdf format, uploaded through iLearn. Preparation of Your Project Report Student Name Student ID, Email: 2 III. NEW SECTION The report may have multiple sections in the main body. IV. CONCLUSIONS This is the Conclusions section.
