Abstract
This study introduces a frequency modulated ultra‐wideband (FM‐UWB) receiver optimised for low power and fast start‐up. The receiver consists of a front end amplifier converting a frequency modulated signal to an amplitude modulated signal which is applied to an envelope detector. The receiver front end is for 500 MHz channels centred at 3450 and 3950 MHz. The amplifier uses passive gain and four cascaded gain stages to achieve high radio‐frequency gain without the need for super‐regeneration. By simplifying the architecture this way, the front end has a 5 μs wake‐up time to enable efficient duty‐cycling. The measured front end receives a signal at −68 dBm while consuming 600 μW of power (excluding a test buffer) from a 1 V supply. Fabrication was done using the IBM 130‐nm CMOS technology on a 1 mm × 1 mm loose die.

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
