I would like to ask about writing equation for this double columns' format.
My equation is a bit long for this format so the equation numbering moves to the bottom as in the first case.
Is this normal to keep it like that?
I also tried to fix it by using split to break the equation but this doesn't look good to me.
Please let me know a standard or better way to do it as I don't have experience on this.
\documentclass[journal]{IEEEtran}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{booktabs,capt-of}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:label1}
\frac{x_n}{y_{HADL}} =
\frac{1}{-[k_3 N +p_3 (1-N)] -q_2 [k_2 N + p_2 (1-N)] }
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:label2}
\begin{split}
\frac{x_n}{y_{HADL}} &=\\
&\frac{1}{-[k_3 N +p_3 (1-N)] -q_2 [k_2 N + p_2 (1-N)] }
\end{split}
\end{equation}
\end{document}
_\text{...}
without another brace group works though. Might break any time.
