Activity Detection for Grant-Free NOMA in Massive IoT Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recently, grant-free transmission paradigm has been introduced for massive Internet of Things (IoT) networks to save both time and bandwidth and transmit the message with low latency. In order to accurately decode the message of each device at the base station (BS), first, the active devices at each transmission frame must be identified. In this work, first we investigate the problem of activity detection as a threshold comparing problem. We show the convexity of the activity detection method through analyzing its probability of error which makes it possible to find the optimal threshold for minimizing the activity detection error. Consequently, to achieve an optimum solution, we propose a deep learning (DL)-based method called convolutional neural network (CNN)-activity detection (AD). In order to make it more practical, we consider unknown and time-varying activity rate for the IoT devices. Our simulations verify that our proposed CNN-AD method can achieve higher performance compared to the existing non-Bayesian greedy-based methods. This is while existing methods need to know the activity rate of IoT devices, while our method works for unknown and even time-varying activity rates.

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.
