`
`
`EXPERT REPORT OF DR. V. THOMAS RHYNE CONCERNING THE INVALIDITY
`OF THE ASSERTED CLAIMS OF U.S. PATENTS NOS. 6,895,557 AND 7,765,482
`
`1.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`In this litigation Plaintiff Summit 6 LLC (“Summit 6”) has asserted that defendants
`1.
`infringe various claims of U.S. Patents Nos. 6,895,557 (“the ’557 patent”) and 7,765,482 (“the
`’482 patent”) which are both now assigned to Summit 6. This expert report addresses the claims
`being asserted against defendants Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. and Samsung
`Telecommunications America LLC (collectively “Samsung”) and Facebook, Inc. (“Facebook”)
`(collectively “Defendants”).
`
`1.1
`
`Retention
`
`I have been retained as an independent technical expert by Defendants Facebook and
`2.
`Samsung in this litigation. I am being paid for my work in this litigation at the rate of $650 per
`hour. My compensation does not depend on the outcome of this litigation. I have no personal
`interest in that outcome. My opinions and conclusions and other matters on which I expect to
`testify at trial are set forth below.
`
`This expert report describes the testimony that I am likely to present regarding the
`3.
`technical subject matter described in the ’557 and ’482 patents, as well as what was known in the
`relevant art at the priority dates of those patents. I may provide a tutorial or demonstration
`regarding the issues raised in this expert report, and may also provide oral testimony regarding
`my knowledge and expert opinions at trial. I anticipate that I may be called to testify regarding
`the issues discussed in this expert report, the exhibits to it and the materials I have considered in
`formulating my opinions. I also expect that I may be called to testify in a tutorial role regarding
`the prior art and general technical concepts relevant to the issues in this suit based on my
`education, experience, and expertise in those areas.
`
`I have prepared this expert report based on my independent evaluation and analysis. This
`4.
`expert report also sets forth my conclusions based on my analysis and research to date. I
`respectfully reserve the right to supplement the opinions set forth in this report, however,
`whether through a supplemental expert report, or through testimony at trial. I also respectfully

`

`

`reserve the right to respond, either through a supplemental expert report or at trial, to any reports,
`
`testimony, other evidence or argument that Slunmit 6 may serve, or depositions of Summit 6
`
`witnesses or third parties that are scheduled but have yet to take place, including the depositions
`
`of Peter Yoakum, Scott Wilson, Laban Jackson, and Point2.
`
`5.
`
`I understand that the Court has construed the asserted claims of the ’557 and ’482 patents
`
`(“Claim Construction”).
`
`I have applied the Claim Constructions in this expert report.
`
`In
`
`addition,
`
`I have reviewed Summit 6’s June
`
`10, 2012 Final
`
`Infiingement Contentions
`
`(“Infringement Contentions”) against Facebook and Samsung, and in preparing this expert report
`
`I have also considered the scope of the claims being asserted by Summit 6, as that scope is
`
`reflected in the Infringement Contentions, although this should not be taken as suggesting that I
`
`agree with Summit 6’s Infringement Contentions.
`
`I have also considered all of the material
`
`listed in Exhibit B.
`
`1.2
`
`The Asserted Claims
`
`6.
`
`According to the cover pleading of Plaintiff Summit 6’s June 20, 2012 Local Patent Rule

`

`
`
`I refer to the claims being asserted by Summit 6 for each of their two patents as the
`7.
`“Asserted ’557 Claims” and the “Asserted ’482 Claims.” I refer to those two sets of claims
`collectively as the “Asserted Summit 6 Claims.”
`
`1.3
`
`The Scope of this Expert Report
`
`For this expert report I have been asked to compare the scope of the Asserted Summit 6
`8.
`Claims to a number of prior patents, other references and products, and as a result of that
`comparison, to determine whether or not that prior art invalidates those claims. This expert
`report provides the opinions of invalidity which I have formed as a result of that comparison, as
`well as the bases for those opinions.

`
`
`4.1.3 The Mattes Patent
`
`
`
`106. Heinz Mattes, U.S. Patent No. 6,038,295 (“Mattes”) was filed Jun. 17, 1997 and issued
`Mar. 14, 2000. Mattes is entitled “Apparatus and Method for Recording, Communicating and
`Administering Digital Images.” Mattes is therefore prior art under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e). I note
`that Mattes was not considered by the PTO during the prosecution of the ’557 or ’482 patents
`and, based on my comparison of Mattes to the prior art before the PTO during the prosecution of
`the ’557 and ’482 patents, is not cumulative.
`
`107. Mattes describes a “communications system for recording and administering” data using
`a “telephone unit” consisting of a “digital image pick up unit,” a “telephone memory,” and a
`“processor.” (Mattes 2:5-10). The Mattes digital image pick up unit, which is essentially a
`digital camera, captures digital images and stores them in the telephone memory. (Mattes 6:1-5).
`Using the processor, the telephone unit then reduces the size of the stored images using the JPEG
`image compression algorithm. (Mattes 6:5-9). The compressed images are subsequently
`transmitted from the telephone unit to a server. (Mattes 7:61-64). After receiving the
`compressed image, Mattes discloses that the server could subsequently make the uploaded image
`available on a web page. (Mattes 8:28-35).
`
`108. Mattes also discloses that the image quality of the uploaded photos varies based on the
`requirements of the destination server. (Mattes 4:18-37). Like the system described in the
`asserted patents, the Mattes systems ensures those requirements are satisfied without any user
`involvement. (Mattes 4:18-37) The Mattes telephone unit and server perform a handshake to
`
`
`
`
`Page 38
`
`Facebook v. TLI Communications
`IPR2015-00778 TLI Ex. 2006
`Page 5 of 36
`
`

`

`
`
`settle on the client-side processing parameters necessary to meet the server’s requirements.
`(Mattes 4:18-37.) The telephone unit first transmits to the server the image resolution or quality
`it intends to provide before uploading the photo. (Mattes 4:18-37.) If the intended resolution or
`quality falls outside the server’s requirements, the server asks the telephone unit to change the
`quality of the image. (Mattes 4:18-37). The server communicates its request through “a control
`parameter” that directs the level of image compression performed by the telephone unit’s image
`processor. (Mattes 5:20-29; Fig. 3).
`
`In addition to pre-processing the captured photos before uploading them, the Mattes
`109.
`telephone unit collects and transmits “classification information” associated with each uploaded
`photo. (Mattes 7:6-19). That classification information helps the server organize and later
`quickly retrieve uploaded photos. (Mattes 3:52-65; 8:41-45). As shown in Figure 4 of Mattes,
`the disclosed system can accept several categories of classification information, such as the
`phone number or physical address of the telephone unit and where the server should store the file
`in its file system. (Mattes 7:6-44). The classification information is transmitted to the server
`“with the digital images.” (Mattes 7:6-8).

`
`RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
`
`615. This expert report reflects my opinions given in good faith with respect to the information
`available to me as of the date I executed it. I respectfully reserve the right to supplement or
`amend my opinions in response to opinions expressed by Summit 6’s experts, or in light of any
`additional evidence, testimony, or other information that may be provided to me after the date of
`this expert report, including at trial. In addition, I explicitly reserve my right to supplement my
`expert report after the depositions of Mr. Yoakum, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Golding, and
`Mr. Willick, and Point2, which I have been informed will occur in the near future. I also
`understand that other additional discovery may occur in the near future and I explicitly reserve
`my right to supplement my expert report based on such discovery. In addition, I expect that I
`may be asked to testify in rebuttal as to issues that may be raised in the expert reports of
`Summit 6’s experts, or to issues that may be raised by Summit 6’s fact witnesses and technical
`experts at trial.

`
`As shown in the chart below, the Asserted ’482 Patent Claims are invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 102 as anticipated by one or more
`of the following references, and/or under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as obvious in light of one or more of the following references either
`individually or in combination. This invalidity claim charts has been prepared based on my understanding of the Asserted ’482 Patent
`Claims, the Court’s Claim Construction, and Summit 6’s proposed interpretations of those claims in its June 20, 2012 Final
`Infringement Contentions. Citations to particular excerpts are exemplary in nature, and are not exhaustive of the evidentiary support
`found in the reference. Where a particular figure is cited in a reference, the citation should be understood to encompass the caption
`and description of the figure and any text relating to or discussing the figure. Similarly, where particular text that discusses a figure is
`cited, the citation should also include the figure.
