Abstract
The response of a high frequency radar system to echoes from underdense meteor trails is numerically calculated. The strengths and limitations of radar detection of meteors at different radar frequencies have been studied based on standard theory. The standard theory takes into account the initial trail radius, the finite meteor velocity, and the radial diffusion. The significance of the pulse repetition frequency and the data sampling interval has been investigated. Height distributions of underdense meteor echoes are predicted, based on standard theory, as a function of radar frequency. The study shows that radars operating at wavelengths of around 5–15 m are unable to detect high-altitude meteors owing to wavelength-dependent ceilings. Long-wavelength radars operating around 15–60 m are potentially able to detect many more underdense meteor echoes than radars operating around 5–15 m. However, there are many important factors influencing the observation of meteors at low radio frequencies and the advantages and drawbacks of radar detection of meteors at low frequency are specifically discussed.

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
