Abstract
A broadband RF delay-and-sum (DAS) beamformer, which employs wide-band CMOS all-pass filters for achieving the desired time delays, is discussed in this work. The use of all-pass filters eliminates the need of I/Q mixers and transmission line-based delay stages used in the previously reported DAS beamformers. The proposed all-pass filter can achieve approximately linear-phase delay across GHz-range of frequencies, which is amendable for wide-band beamforming. The delay-and-sum section of the beamformer was designed and simulated for an array of 4 antennas, with the desired signal direction of arrival of 11° from broadside direction. The performance of the wide-band DAS beamformer is obtained with simulations in IBM 130-nm CMOS technology. Moreover, experimental results for the main building block of the circuit, the voltage-mode all-pass filter with the nominal 33 ps delay, are given to strengthen the feasibility of physical implementation of such a beamformer.

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
