Abstract
The FCC has set apart a frequency band with the specific goal of improving safety and efficiency of the transportation system. Its purpose is to provide wireless communications between stations on the roadside and mobile radio units located on board of vehicles. The resulting technology is known as WAVE and is currently under development as draft standard IEEE 802.1 lp. The most time- critical messages, carrying urgent safety-related information, are transmitted over the so-called control channel (CCH). WAVE devices use the EDCA MAC protocol, defined in the 2007 version of the IEEE 802.11 standard, to compete for the transmission medium. This work analyzes the performance of EDCA under the specific conditions of the CCH of a WAVE environment. The protocol is modeled using Markov chains and results related to throughput, frame-error rate, buffer occupancy and delay are obtained under different traffic-load conditions.

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
