Unknown Transmit Power RSSD-Based Localization in a Gaussian Mixture Channel
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Localization is a critical task in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, accurate localization is difficult when there is noise from external sources and faulty nodes, especially when the transmit power is unknown. Signal strength-based localization methods are popular due to their low complexity and simple implementation. In this paper, robust localization based on the received signal strength difference (RSSD) is considered with unknown transmit power and Gaussian mixture noise in the presence of faulty nodes. A robust fault-tolerant localization (RFLT) technique is proposed by reformulating the original localization problem using a generalized trust-region subproblem (GTRS) framework. The resulting problem is non-convex so it is divided into two subproblems using a regularization item (RI) with a block-update surrogate function (BUSF). The active set method (ASM) is used to obtain an initial solution. The corresponding Cramer–Rao lower bound (CRLB) for Gaussian mixture noise is derived as a benchmark. Simulation results are presented which show that the performance of the proposed method is superior to other state-of-the-art methods.

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.
