Abstract
Abstract—In conventional wireless systems with layered architectures, the physical (PHY) layer equally treats all data streams from the upper layers and applies the same modulation and coding schemes to them. Newer systems such as Digital Video Broadcast start to introduce hierarchical modulation schemes with SuperPosition Coding (SPC) and support data streams of different priorities. However, SPC requires specialized hardware and has high complexity, which is not desirable for handheld devices. In this paper, we propose scalable modulation (s-mod) by reusing the current mainstream modulation schemes with software-based bit remapping. The performance evaluation has shown that s-mod can achieve the same and, in some cases, even better performance than SPC with much lower complexity. We further propose how to optimize the configuration of the PHY-layer s-mod and coding schemes to maximize the utility of video streaming with scalable video coding (SVC). Simulation results demonstrate substantial performance gains using s-mod and cross-layer optimization, indicating that s-mod and SVC are a good combination for video transmission in wireless networks. Index Terms—Scalable modulation (s-mod) and coding, scalable video coding (SVC), SuperPosition Coding (SPC). I.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
