Focus and Scope

Created in 2015, the SET INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BROADCAST ENGINEERING Magazine is an annual serial publication, whose objective is to disseminate the plurality of knowledge in telecommunications engineering in the broadcast market in Radio, TV and Streaming services considering aspects of a scientific, theoretical and experimental — always encouraging the development of new methodological perspectives. As it constitutes the scientific journal of the Brazilian Society of Television Engineering (SET), its main focus is to compose an overview of the most representative results for the transmission/reception of multimedia signals in different media.

Classified in stratum B5 of Qualis Periódicos, by CAPES (quadriennium 2013-2016), the SET INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BROADCAST ENGINEERING Magazine is open to collaborations from Brazil and abroad. It is currently published online and in print.

Section Policies

Articles

The main requirement for the publication of an article in the SET INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BROADCAST ENGINEERING consists of the presentation of a representative text of the subject that is proposed to be developed, with regard to: consistency, relevance and importance of the topic addressed, considering the context, the moment and sub-area(s) of knowledge in which it is inserted; definition and relevance of objectives; scientific foundation; clarity in the presentation, adequacy and application of the methodological process; consistency, clarity and fluency in the text and final considerations; updated bibliography, considering its identity with the topic covered.

Peer Review Process

The process of evaluating the works involves a preliminary check by the Editorial Board, which considers their suitability for the editorial line of the SET INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BROADCAST ENGINEERING. Each article is then evaluated by ad hoc reviewers, through the double blind review process, which preserves the identity of collaborators and consultants. In case of a tie, a new blind evaluation is requested by a third reviewer. In order to ensure greater adequacy of the OPUS journal to an international qualitative standard, when relevant and whenever possible, we request that peer reviews be carried out by a Brazilian or foreign specialist based in a Brazilian university, and by a Brazilian or foreigner based in foreign university.

Frequency

Electronic publication (online and printed), serial and annual.

Open Access Policy

This magazine offers immediate free access to its content, following the principle that making scientific knowledge freely available to the public provides greater global democratization of knowledge. Users can read, download, copy, distribute, print, search or reference the full text of articles, without requesting prior authorization from the editors or authors. This policy is in accordance with the BOAI “Budapest Open Access Initiative” definition of open access.
