Data in Brief Article Template

Version 3.1

Data in Brief is an open access journal which publishes data articles. Please note:

· A data article is different to a regular research article, so it is important to use the template
below to write your article for Data in Brief.

· A data article simply describes data without providing conclusions or interpretive insights.

· When writing your data article avoid using words such as ‘study’, ‘results’, and ‘conclusions’.

· Data in Brief requires raw data (also referred to as primary, source or unprocessed data)
relating to any charts, graphs or figures in this manuscript. These raw data must be publicly
available, either within the data article (e.g. as a supplementary file) or hosted on a data
repository.

· For data that require access controls for ethical reasons, a mechanism must be provided so that
our Editors and reviewers may access these data without revealing their identities to authors.

· We recommend Mendeley Data if you do not have a trusted data repository.

· Examples of previously published Data in Brief articles can be found here.

Authors can submit to Data in Brief in two ways:

(1) If you are submitting your data article directly to Data in Brief you can
now skip the next section and complete the Data Article template.

(2) If you are submitting your data article to Data in Brief via another Elsevier
journal as a co-submission, please read the Co-submission Instructions on
the next page before completing the Data Article template.

We would love your feedback on this template and how it might be improved. To provide feedback via a very short survey
please click here.
Co-submission Instructions
A co-submission to Data in Brief is done at the same time you submit a research article to another
Elsevier journal (a co-submission can be done either when you first submit, or when you submit a
revised version or your research article). The revision letter/email you receive from the other journal will
contain an offer to submit a data article to Data in Brief if a co-submission is permitted for that journal.

As Data in Brief is open access, a moderate fee (APC) is payable by the author or research funder to
cover the costs associated with publication of a data article. For more information about the APC please
see here.

To complete a co-submission you will need to zip your Data in Brief manuscript file and all other files
relevant to the Data in Brief submission (including supplementary data files) into a single .zip file, and
upload this as a “Data in Brief”-labelled item in the other journal’s submission system when you
submit your revised manuscript to that journal. The .zip file will then be automatically transferred to
Data in Brief when your research article is accepted for publication in the other journal.

If you have any difficulty doing this please contact: DIB@Elsevier.com

Please note, authors should not republish the same data presented in their original research article in a
Data in Brief co-submission as this could constitute duplicate publication. However, Data in Brief
welcomes for publication any data article which fulfils one or more of the following criteria:

- A description of the full dataset or additional information that will aid reuse

- A detailed description of the raw data relating to the charts, graphs or figures in your companion
research article, if making these data available will substantially enhance reproducibility and/or
reanalysis

- A description of the supplementary data which would previously have been hosted as
supplementary electronic files alongside your original research article *

- Any negative datasets or data from intermediate experiments related to your research

Data in Brief requires that all raw data be made available. Where it is possible to do so, data should be
deposited in a recognized data repository, or submitted directly to Data in Brief and hosted alongside
the published data article. Data in Brief’s preference is for data to be deposited in a repository and we
recommend Mendeley Data if you do not have a trusted repository.

*When describing supplementary data which authors previously planned to publish as supplementary
electronic files hosted alongside their original research article, it is requested that authors either deposit
these in a repository (preferred) or submit these to Data in Brief alongside their data article. They
should not be published with your research article in the other journal.
Data Article template
Please fill in the template below. All the Sections are mandatory. Please read all instructions in [square
brackets] carefully and ensure that you delete all instruction text (including the questions) from the
template before submitting your article. This includes all text in the sections above.

Reminder: a data article simply describes data and should not provide conclusions or interpretive
insights.

And finally, we would love your feedback on this template and how it might be improved. To provide

Abstract
[en este documento se presenta un conjunto de datos que contiene los parámetros de transmisión
como la potencia del canal, el ancho de banda en la que se transmite, la frecuencia de error, la relación
señal a ruido, la señal a ruido y distorsión de radio y el rango dinámico libre de espurios; en el cual se
realizó la transmisión de información por medio de un software especializado, donde se simula la
generación de la señal inicial, su modulación y con este el envío, por medio, de la tecnología de Radio
sobre Fibra, para esto se tuvo en cuenta 4 diferentes formatos de transmisión: QPSK, 8-PSK, 16-QAM y
64-QAM, cada uno de estos se trabajó en un rango de 10 a 20 GHz tomando más de 100 datos en la
evaluación, para un total de 400 variables analizadas sobre el comportamiento y tratamiento de la
información a enviar. El conjunto de datos ha sido revisado por expertos en telecomuniciones y
transmisión de radio. El conjunto de datos es extremadamente útil para los investigadores que trabajen
el análisis de transmisión de datos a altas frecuencias en las tecnologías Radio sobre Fibra]
