Abstract
This paper proposes a spectrum-efficient spatio-temporal array-receiver for multi-carrier CDMA systems named MC-STAR. First, we derive a new post-correlation model for MC-CDMA that characterizes the structure of the channel in space, time and frequency. Based on this model, we introduce a new multi-carrier array-receiver with rapid and accurate joint synchronization in time and frequency. There, we exploit jointly the spatial, temporal and frequency diversities as well as the intrinsic inter-carrier correlation (termed hereafter frequency gain) to improve the channel identification and the synchronization operations. In addition, based on a new link/system-level performance analysis, with a band-limited chip waveform assumption, we provide a comparative performance study of MC-STAR over two multi-carrier CDMA air-interface configurations, namely MT-CDMA and MC-DS-CDMA, in the most realistic operating conditions. Link/system-level results confirm the advantages of MT-CDMA in increasing throughput and bandwidth efficiency. The current trend is to design radio air-interfaces with flat fading subcarriers. In contrast, with MC-STAR we show that the positive effects of multipath diversity and frequency gain over large strongly-overlapping subcarriers is more significant than the negative effects of multipath and multi-carrier interference.

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
