Abstract
Most of the existing medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless local area networks (WLANs) provide prioritized access by adjusting the contention window sizes or inter-frame spaces for different traffic classes. Those MAC protocols can only provide statistical priority access and limited service differentiation. In this paper, a novel token-based scheduling scheme is proposed for a fully-connected WLAN that supports both voice and data traffic. The proposed scheme can provide guaranteed priority access to voice traffic and, at the same time, provide more precise and quantitative service differentiation for data traffic, which provides great flexibility and facility to the network service provider for service class management. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can guarantee a small delay for voice traffic. For data traffic, it can effectively achieve proportional differentiation among different classes, while achieving fair resource sharing within the same class. In addition, compared with a contention based scheme and a centralized polling scheme, the proposed scheme significantly improves the channel utilization by avoiding collisions (in the contention based scheme) and the polling overhead (in the polling scheme). The performance analysis of the proposed scheme is also presented. The accuracy of the analytical results is verified by computer simulations.

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
