Abstract
We propose and demonstrate a novel and simple predistortion circuit using reflective antiparallel diodes for linearization of electro-absorption modulators (EAMs) in multiband orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) ultra-wideband (UWB) radio-over-fiber systems for UWB signals from 3.1 to 4.8 GHz. In this novel predistortion circuit, neither amplifiers, nor phase shifters are used, while only two antiparallel connected diodes are used, and the predistortion signal is adjusted by tuning the diodes' dc-bias current. The simple architecture makes the circuit cost effective and suitable for UWB system applications. By adding the predistortion circuit before the EAM, more than 7-dB suppression in third-order intermodulation distortion and 11-dB improvement in spurious-free dynamic range are achieved over the frequency range of 3.1-4.8 GHz, i.e., bandgroup 1 of MB-OFDM UWB. Correspondingly, 1-dB improvement in error vector magnitude is obtained experimentally when the designed predistortion circuit is used.

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
