Abstract
Multicarrier modulation, while providing a theoretical pathway to data rates approaching the Shannon limit and being extensively utilized in wireless communication, has encountered limited application in high-speed wireline communication. This limitation is primarily due to substantial large amplitude peaks, which necessitates a reduction in the signal’s power levels to circumvent signal clipping. This, in turn, results in a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) which puts these modulations at a serious disadvantage compared to conventional modulation schemes. This work proposes a novel companding solution in the design of the Continuous Time Linear Equalizer (CTLE) alongside nonlinear blocks to reduce Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), therefore improving the overall link performance. This paper presents a PAPR reduction technique and its implementation in the receiver, distinguishing it from previous studies that place the compander at the transmitter where it fails to work in the presence of an Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) channel. A theoretical study as well as an implementation of this method is provided, and the merits and performance improvements are demonstrated.

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
