Analysis of multi-tier uplink cellular networks with energy harvesting and flexible cell association
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We model and analyze a K-tier uplink cellular network with flexible cell association where all transmissions are powered by energy harvesting from ambient interference. Each cellular user transmits data to the corresponding base station (BS) only when the amount of energy harvested is sufficient to perform channel inversion towards the serving BS. Furthermore, the data transmitted can be successfully decoded only when the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the receiver is above a predefined threshold. With flexible cell association, users are not necessarily associated with their nearest BS where a different bias factor is added to each network tier. We use tools from stochastic geometry to evaluate the performance of the proposed system model in terms of the coverage probability of a generic user associated with the k-th tier. We show that energy harvesting can be a reliable source to power cellular users with short-range communication, e.g., small cell users. In addition, we show that energy harvesting can achieve high coverage performance by optimizing different network parameters such as the BS receiver sensitivity as well as the bias factors.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
