Decentralized Wireless Networks With Asynchronous Users and Burst Transmissions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper studies a decentralized wireless network of asynchronous transmitter-receiver pairs with burst transmissions. Each receiver learns about the number of active users, channel coefficients, and mutual delays based on locally available measurements. The estimates for the mutual delays are not perfect, however, they are reliable enough to guarantee successful decoding. Two signalling schemes are addressed, namely, randomized masking (RM) and reduced cycle transmission (RCT). Under RM, the n symbols of a codeword are generated according to a Bernoulli-Gaussian distribution with activity factor 0 <; θ ≤ 1. This is in contrast to RCT where each codeword consists of ⌈θn⌉ Gaussian symbols followed by n-⌈θn⌉ zeros. Assuming the transmitters are unaware of the number of users, channel coefficients, and mutual delays, the probability of outage under RM is considerably lower compared with RCT if the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is sufficiently large. A generalized RCT scheme is also examined where the n - ⌈θn⌉ zero symbols are not necessarily located at the end of a codeword. In the asymptote of large SNR, the outage probability becomes vanishingly small under RM, however, it is bounded away from zero for generalized RCT regardless of the value of SNR.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
