Abstract
The vision of the future 5G - Multicast Broadcast Services (5G-MBS) is to achieve full convergence of broadcast and unicast services by providing these services on the same infrastructure and dynamically switching between them without impacting user experiences. By incorporating Layered Division Multiplexing (LDM) into the new 5G-MBS system and performing the proper antenna precoding, the network can transmit a two-layer signal where the higher power Core Layer (CL) transmits a Single Frequency Network (SFN) broadcast signal, and the lower power Enhanced Layer (EL) is used for unicast services. To evaluate the performance of the two-layer network, a new 5G system-level model is developed, and its performance is compared against the 3GPP self-evaluation results. The resulting Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR) Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) curves fall within 1 dB from the 3GPP calibration average, well within 3GPP's tolerance margin of 1~2 dB. Full performance evaluations of the two-layer network show that the network is able to provide an additional three 4K video broadcasting services in the CL while supporting a full unicast network in the EL.

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
