I am now out of institute, but need to download paper from IEEExplore.
I can ssh to the institute server. I think I should be able to access IEEExplore there, but I don't know how to download.
Suppose I am out of institute, and want to download this paper:
I have tried:
but mypaper.pdf turns out to be a broken pdf file.
Could anyone give some suggestions?

I found http://techqe.blogspot.com/2009/09/quick-download-ieee-paper.html, which provides the following solution:
Identify the 'arnumber' for the paper, in the hyperlink you found while browsing. In your example, it's 5738219
Enter the following command at your shell:
Your paper will now be saved in 'paper.pdf'
You can use your institute server as a socks proxy and download as usual using your favourite method.
ssh -D <portNumber> username@serverip
Now the socks proxy has been setup on localhost:portNumber
. You can apply the proxy system wide based on your operating system and download as usual.
