Non-Asymptotic Achievable Rates for Gaussian Energy-Harvesting Channels: Best-Effort and Save-and-Transmit
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) energy-harvesting (EH) channel is considered where the transmitter is equipped with an infinite-sized battery which stores energy harvested from the environment. The energy arrival process is modeled as a sequence of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. The capacity of this channel is known and is achievable by the so-called best-effort and save-and-transmit schemes. This paper investigates the best-effort scheme in the finite blocklength regime and establishes the first nonasymptotic achievable rate for it. The first-order term of the nonasymptotic achievable rate equals the capacity, and the second-order term is proportional to -√{logn/n} <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-</sup> where n denotes the blocklength. The proof technique involves analyzing the escape probability of a Markov process. In addition, we use this new proof technique to analyze the save-and-transmit and obtain a new non-asymptotic achievable rate for it, whose first-order and second-order terms achieve the capacity and the scaling -1/√n respectively. For all sufficiently large signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), our new achievable rate outperforms the existing ones.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
