IEEE Vehicular Technology Society
- IEEE Vehicular Technology Society
The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) was founded in 1949 as the Institute of Radio Engineers' (IRE) Committee on Vehicular and Railroad Radio. The Society's name has changed five times since then and its scope has expanded to include not only the "Radio" of the original name, but all manners of electronics associated with vehicular systems. The Society (then known as the IRE Professional Group on Vehicular Communications) held its first "Meeting" (now Conference) in Detroit in 1950. The Society's first "Transactions" was published in 1952. Like the Society, the "Transactions" has carried many names.
The Society sponsors two publications: "IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology" and "Vehicular Technology Magazine". The "Transactions" are published bimonthly, encompassing approximately 2000 pages of peer-reviewed material annually. The Magazine is published quarterly, including both peer-reviewed and general interest features.
The Society's flagship conference, the Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC) began in 1950 and was held annually through 1998. In 1999, the Society began holding the VTC semi-annually. The Society also co-sponsors a number of other Conferences and Symposia.
The Society has approximately 35 local Chapters throughout the world.
