Robust Downlink Transmission: An Offset-Based Single-Rate-Splitting Approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We consider a multi-user multiple-input single-output downlink system that provides each user with a prespecified level of quality-of-service. The rate-splitting (RS) approach to this problem involves splitting the messages of each user into common and private portions that are transmitted in superposition and decoded sequentially. By adjusting the rates of each portion, the RS approach is able to mitigate the interference that conventional linear beamforming (CLB) schemes incur when users have channels that are closely aligned. However, the transmitter design problem for the RS approach can be quite challenging to solve. In this paper we develop a single-rate-splitting approach, in which RS is applied only to the user with the channel that is “most aligned” with the other channels. This approach greatly reduces the computational cost of RS designs, and admits an offset-based variant that provides robustness to channel estimation errors. Despite its simplifications, our simulation results indicate that the proposed approach retains most of the performance advantage of RS transmission over CLB.

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.
