Abstract
Characteristics of rain-induced attenuation at Ka-band measured over a four-year period (1994-1997) with the advanced communications technology satellite (ACTS), Vancouver, BC, Canada, are reported. Event-based analyses of fading are performed and examples of the instantaneous 30/20-GHz frequency-scaling ratio are presented. Long-term cumulative statistics of rain rate as derived from rain-gauge measurements, along with annual attenuation statistics at 20 and 30 GHz, are provided. Finally, attenuation statistics are compared with the ITU-R model and aspects related to local climatic characteristics are considered, aiming to improve the predictions of attenuation due to rain.

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
