Measures the scientific influence of the journal, accounting for both the number of citations and the prestige of the journals where the citations come from. 2. Indexing and Abstracting Status
Because it is published by the International Frequency Sensor Association, your work directly reaches specialists focused explicitly on transducers and sensor hardware.
A higher impact factor indicates that, on average, the papers published in that journal are heavily cited by peer researchers, which generally correlates with high prestige, rigorous peer review, and broad institutional recognition.

For a historical perspective, earlier versions of the journal’s metrics can be observed. Historical data shows an SJR of 0.194 in 2013, which declined to 0.115 in 2017 before slightly recovering to 0.127 in 2025.
A critical point to note for prospective authors is that, according to the available data, Many journal metric platforms, like Resurchify, explicitly list it as "discontinued" for impact factor calculation, with an Impact Score of 0.00 for 2024-2025 based on Scopus data. However, the journal is indexed in Scopus and has other important metrics that provide a clear picture of its standing.
Because it caters to both theoretical advancements and highly practical, industry-oriented engineering solutions, it attracts a diverse global community of contributors. Measures the scientific influence of the journal, accounting
Calculates citations over a four-year window instead of two.
Widely considered premier legacy journals for deep, foundational research in transducers, MEMS, and chemical sensors, carrying high impact factors.
The journal aimed to provide a forum for the science and technology of physical, chemical sensors, and biosensors. Its scope was broad, covering the design, fabrication, and application of sensors. The journal published original research, reviews, and short notes. It stood out by focusing on areas not adequately addressed by other journals, such as frequency, time-interval, and pulse-output sensors, as well as smart sensor systems and advanced sensor networks. A higher impact factor indicates that, on average,
Because it targets a highly specialized niche, it attracts a specific community of global researchers looking to share developments in automated data acquisition and measurement. The Concept of Journal Impact Factor (JIF)
: Transducers are the backbone of the Internet of Things (IoT). Piezoresistive types are preferred for their simple circuitry and high integration potential.
Ensures all published articles are searchable and trackable for individual citation metrics.
Measured at approximately 0.281 , which indicates a slow but stable citation velocity for specific technical designs.
