Five-Target FMCW Beat Superposition

PARITYS1 · dim 12

No clear winner. The survival gap is under 10 percentage points and the balanced-score gap is under 0.05, so neither SolvSRK nor the best baseline clears the win threshold. Either works — choose on cost, licensing, or integration effort. All verdicts →

Five-target FMCW scenario. States: [I1,Q1,...,I5,Q5, phi_vco, agc]. Targets at R=30, 100, 250, 500, 1000 m → beat freq spread 30 kHz to 1 MHz. Eigenvalue ratio ~33:1. Step-density constraint: ≥30 steps/chirp (board action item 4).

At Clean, best balanced arm is SciPy BDF · SolvSRK survival 100%.

Values are medians across seeds, measured by Resonix Labs on Resonix hardware and not independently verified; nfev and wall are on reference lab hardware (indicative). Under injected noise only SolvSRK and the SciPy arms are run. How we measure accuracy → · Verification status →
