Abstract
Anik F2 is a telecommunications satellite launched in July 2004 for Telesat Canada. It is equipped with a beacon at 20 GHz which supports antenna pointing and user terminal rain mitigation techniques. A receiver was built in 2005 at the Communications Research Centre Canada (CRC) in Ottawa to monitor the Anik F2 beacon signal. Software to perform the data acquisition and process the propagation data collected at CRC was developed as well. One important purpose of the on-going experiment is to investigate fading characteristics relevant to the design of fade mitigation techniques on satellite communication links. The paper describes the main characteristics of the experiment and presents results derived from data collected from the Anik F2 beacon signal at CRC over the period 2006-2007, namely statistics of rain rate, atmospheric-induced attenuation, duration of fades, and fade slope.

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
