Protocol-Aware Tokenization and Architecture Co-Design for Wireless Packet Foundation Models
Researchers demonstrate that protocol-aware tokenization is significantly more important than model architecture for wireless packet foundation models. PLUME-DEEP achieves 98.2% accuracy with deeper layers, while PLUME-MAMBA offers faster inference with 96.1% accuracy, revealing that tokenizer design swings accuracy by 32 points versus only 2 points for architectural changes.
