Abstract
Aerial acoustic communication attracts substantial attention for its simplicity and cost-effectiveness. Unfortunately, the preferred inaudible transmission has to strike a balance between the transmission rate and communication range, when the Bit-Error-Rate (BER) is under a certain threshold. Additionally, the performance of previous proposals can be deteriorated by dynamic channel conditions including near-far problem, device heterogeneity, and multipath fading. To this end, we propose a High-speed, long-range, and Robust Chirp Spread Spectrum (HRCSS) scheme for inaudible aerial acoustic communication under dynamic channels. HRCSS innovates in the definition of a loose orthogonality condition, and it leverages this orthogonality to overlap multiple chirp carriers in a single time duration to form a data symbol representing multiple bits, thereby substantially promoting the data rate. To further enhance system robustness in long communication ranges and dynamic channel conditions, we construct a lightweight rate adaptation algorithm and design a simple yet efficient normalization method. Experiment results reveal that HRCSS achieves a significant improvement in data rate over existing methods: it delivers 500 bps data rate with a BER of 0.24 percent at 10 m, and achieves 125 bps with zero BER at 20 m. Meanwhile, HRCSS can work adaptively under dynamic channel conditions while still retaining a BER below 3 percent.

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
