Abstract
In this work, we propose a robust planning tool that allocates power statically in homogeneous and heterogeneous cellular networks with non-regular base station (BTS) placement, to mitigate interference and improve overall performance. Each BTS will use the total available spectrum, but it will divide it into multiple sub-bands, and each BTS will transmit with a specific pre-computed power on each sub-band. We refer to such a power allocation as a power map. Our offline planning tool computes a robust power map for a given topology, by solving a non-convex, non-linear optimization problem, through simple transformations, based on geometric programming. The power map is computed based solely on the network topology, and it is made available to all BTSs that use it throughout the network operation to perform scheduling using a fast quasi-optimal online algorithm that we propose. We evaluate our planning tool for different homogeneous and heterogeneous networks (HetNets), first in a static setting where scheduling is performed optimally and then in a dynamic setting when scheduling is performed with our online scheduler. Results show that our solution significantly outperforms a classical equal power/fixed frequency reuse scheme in terms of sum-rate, by up to 30% in homogeneous networks and by up to 70% in HetNets.

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
