Abstract
Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) complement their terrestrial counterparts in enabling ubiquitous connectivity globally by serving unserved and/or underserved areas of the world. Supporting enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) data over NTNs has been extensively studied in the past. However, focus on massive machine type communication (mMTC) over NTNs is currently growing. Evidence for this are the work items included into the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) agenda for commissioning standards for Internet-of-Things (IoT) communications over NTNs. Supporting mMTC in non-terrestrial cellular IoT (C-IoT) networks requires jointly addressing the unique challenges introduced in NTNs and C-IoT communications. In this paper, we tackle one such issue caused due to the extended round-trip time and increased path loss in NTNs resulting in a degraded network throughput. We propose smarter transport blocks scheduling methods that can increase the efficiency of resource utilization. We conduct end-to-end link-level simulations of C-IoT traffic over NTNs. Our numerical results of throughput show the improvement in performance achieved using our proposed solutions against legacy scheduling 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 it
