IEEE Citation style guide 
What This Guide Does 
This style guide covers commonly-used cases for citations using the IEEE citation system. Certain IEEE sections have slightly different citation styles: please check with your instructor and the references at the end of this guide for more information. 
Text Citations 
Use the reference number instead of the item details for citations. If you are referring to several references, include each numbered reference used, using ranges when applicable. Use en-dashes for the range separator. 
The data are supported in [10–13], but have been questioned in more recent studies [1, 3]. In [12], for example, pigs were reported to be able to fly; Old McDonald, however, noted that the pigs had been thrown into the air. [6] 
Bibliography Section 
Each reference is preceded by a reference number. The reference number is used where the author would usually be used in other citation formats. 
General Rules Omit any parts of a citation that are not applicable. Use abbreviated forms of company and journal names if possible. Use the abbreviated form of the month where required.

Multiple Authors (up to 3) 
{Author}, {Author} and {Author} 
A.A. Milne and E.B. Shepard

{Author} et al. 
G. Smith et al. 
Single Editor 
• Add “Ed.” after the editor‟s name 
Multiple Editors Add “Eds.” after the editors‟ names If there are more than three editors, use the first editor‟s name followed by “et al.” 
M. Smith, Ed. 
Places and Publishers 
If a book is published in several cities, choose the first city listed. Use the abbreviated form of the publisher‟s name, if available. 
If the place of publication is well-known, you only need the name of the place (e.g. New York). 
{City}, {Province/State Abbreviation}: {Publisher} 
Hoboken, NJ: Wiley 
London: Springer-Verlag 
Authors 
Single Author 
If the author has “Jr.”, “II”, etc. after his or her name, include it.
