Context Window Size and Model Scale Effects on Retrieval-Augmented Generation Accuracy Degradation

This report synthesises findings from 13 peer-reviewed papers addressing the following research question: How do context window limitations in 7B versus 70B models influence the degradation of generation accuracy when retrieved document counts exceed optimal thresholds in enterprise RAG pipelines. 9 claims were extracted from source literature; 9 were independently verified against retrieved documents. An automated multi-reviewer quality assessment produced a score of 8.5/10. This report is a machine-generated literature synthesis and does not constitute original research.
