Abstract
This paper presents a thorough experimental study on key generation principles, i.e., temporal variation, channel reciprocity, and spatial decorrelation, through a testbed constructed by using wireless open-access research platform. It is the first comprehensive study through: 1) carrying out a number of experiments in different multipath environments, including an anechoic chamber, a reverberation chamber, and an indoor office environment, which represents little, rich, and moderate multipath, respectively; 2) considering static, object moving, and mobile scenarios in these environments, which represents different levels of channel dynamicity; and 3) studying two most popular channel parameters, i.e., channel state information and received signal strength. Through results collected from over a hundred tests, this paper offers insights to the design of a secure and efficient key generation system. We show that multipath is essential and beneficial to key generation as it increases the channel randomness. We also find that the movement of users/objects can help introduce temporal variation/randomness and help users reach an agreement on the keys. This paper complements existing research by experiments constructed by a new hardware platform.

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
