`
`For example, Jurgen describes that different types of multiplexed data
`
`communication systems can be used in automobiles for various functions. Jurgen
`
`describes that Class A networks, for example, are “most appropriate for low-speed
`
`body wiring and control functions,” transmitting data at a bit rate of, for example, 1
`
`Kbps. Jurgen, at pages 26.3 and 26.24. Jurgen also describes that Class B networks
`
`generally have higher speeds, such as Bosch’s CAN protocol, which transmits data at
`
`a bit rate of, for example, 1 Mbps. Page 26.24.
`
`5.
`
`Jurgen also describes that a single—network architecture can be used such
`
`that both Class A and Class B messages can be transmitted on the same network.
`
`Page 26.3
`
`6.
`
`Jurgen also describes a number of communication protocols for vehicle
`
`networks that utilize fiber optics as the transmission medium, including Bosch’s CAN
`
`bus protocol, GM’s J2016 token slot protocol, and the University Wien Austria’s TTP
`
`protocol. Page 26.24.
`

`
`Waggener discloses the basics of Pulse Code Modulation signals,
`
`in
`
`which acquired data from one or more sensors is multiplexed onto a single channel.
`
`Waggener, page 16.
`
`8.
`
`Waggener describes how multiplexing is used to create “composite data”
`
`for transmission over a common communication link or channel. Page 108. Figure
`
`4.1 of Waggener discloses this single communication channel,
`
`in between the
`
`multiplexer and the demultiplexer.

`
`Waggener also describes that multiplexed data streams can use a concept
`
`called “subcommutation,” in which sensors of different bandwidth can be multiplexed
`
`together efficiently. Page 18. Figure 4.4 of Waggener shows an example of the
`
`subcommutation technique that multiplexes data from three different sources (D, S,
`
`and W) onto a common communications link:

`
`A single “minor frame” as shown in Figure 4.4 of Waggener is a
`
`“message rate interval.” This minor frame is repeated, in the example shown in
`
`Figure 4.4, ten times.
`
`11.
`
`In Figure 4.4 of Waggener, certain channels are “assigned” to various
`
`time slots in the minor frame. Page 110. This assignment of data to different time
`
`slots means that a portion of the message rate interval (the minor frame) is “devoted”
`
`3
`
`

`

`to a first type of data, which is high rate data (D), while a remaining portion of the
`
`interval is “reserved” for the second type of data, which is low rate data (S or W).
`
`12.
`
`Figure 4.4 shows the channel with the highest sampling rate (D) being
`
`assigned time slots D1 to D8 in the “minor” frame (the message rate interval), while
`
`channels with lower sampling rates (S and W) are subcommutated into later minor
`
`frames. Pages 110-11.
`
`13.
`
`Since all eight time slots containing D data are transmitted in each minor
`
`frame (message rate interval), this constitutes a “complete” message of D data being
`
`transmitted Within a single minor frame (message rate interval). All eight time slots of
`
`D data repeat in every minor frame.
`
`14. While eight time slots of D data are sampled in every minor frame, four
`
`minor frames are required to transmit the four time slots of S data. Because this S
`
`data is subcommutated into one time slot each of four minor frames, four minor
`
`frames (message rate intervals) are required to transmit all four time slots of S data.
`
`In that period of time, four complete messages of D data have been transmitted.
`
`Therefore, only a part of the S—data time slots is transmitted in a single minor frame,
`
`or message rate interval. Four consecutive message rate intervals are required to
`
`transmit a complete message of S data.
`
`l 15.
`
`Additionally, during the same message rate interval in which eight time
`
`slots of D data are transmitted, only one time slot is devoted to the W data. Two
`
`minor frames (message rate intervals) are required to transmit a complete message of
`
`-4-
`
`4
`
`

`

`W data (W1 and W2), and in those two minor frames, two complete messages of D
`
`data have been transmitted. Therefore, only a fragment of a W—data message is
`
`transmitted in a single minor frame, or message rate interval. Two consecutive
`
`message rate intervals are required to transmit a complete message of W data.
`
`16.
`
`It would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art to
`
`combine Jurgen and Waggener. As I stated above, jurgen describes that it was known
`
`in the automotive field to transmit messages at different message rates on a single
`
`network.
`
`jurgen, page 26.3. Waggener describes methods for transmitting data
`
`acquired from “a wide variety of sensors and sources” over a network using
`
`subcommutation techniques. Waggener, pages 17; 110.
`
`The subcommutation
`
`method disclosed by Waggener can achieve the multiplexing of Class A and Class B
`
`messages of different message rates in the single network architecture described by
`
`Jurgen.
`
`17. Mosch et
`
`a1. describes a data packet protocol
`
`that allows a high
`
`frequency data signal to be superimposed on a lower frequency data signal. Col. 1,
`
`lines 3 to 6; col. 2, lines 16 to 19. For example, Mosch et al. describes high-speed
`
`burst—mode packet data signals superimposed on a lower frequency data signal.
`
`Id.
`
`18.
`
`As an example, Mosch et 31. describes the use of its protocol with optical
`
`signals on a Passive Optical Network (PON), but notes that it can be used with non—
`
`optical signals as well. Col. 3, lines 9 to 11 ; col. 9, lines 8 to 11.
`
`5
`
`

`

`19.
`
`In Mosch et a1., each burst-mode data packet in time slots T1 t0 TN
`
`originates, respectively, from one of several terminal units ONU-l though ONU—N.
`
`Col. 3, lines 12 to 14. Figure 3 (reproduced below) shows the high frequency data
`
`signal superimposed on the low frequency data signal. Col. 3, lines 14 to 21.
`
`In
`
`Figure 3, a burst-mode packet (the high frequency data) is transmitted in each of time
`
`slots T1 and T2 (which correspond to the high message period (HI message period)
`
`of Figure 2 of the ’775 patent), while low frequency data is sampled during the interval
`
`TQ (which corresponds to the time difference between the end of one HI message
`
`period and the beginning of the next HI message period of Figure 2 of the ’775
`
`patent), and which is between two adjacent packets. C01. 3, lines 9 to 21; col. 5 lines
`
`21 to 28. Each burst-mode packet has the same number of bits. Col. 3, lines 14 to 18
`
`and 45 to 50.

`
`Figure 3 shows “message rate intervals,” each having a duration of one
`
`time slot (e.g., T1 or TZ), devoted to a burst—mode packet, plus an interval TQ, which
`
`-6-
`

`
`

`

`is reserved for low frequency data. These “message rate intervals” of total duration
`
`T1 +TQ or T2+TQ are established on the common communication link, which is the
`
`communications channel shown as a single transmission medium in Figure 1 (below).

`
`21.
`
`The high speed packet data is
`
`transmitted only in the appropriate
`
`portion of the message rate interval. For example, in the first message rate interval,
`
`the high speed packet data is transmitted only during interval “T1.” Mosch et 21.
`
`states that there must be a quiet interval TQ between packets to prevent interference.
`
`Col. 6, lines 12 to 22.
`
`22.
`
`The message rate interval has a portion “devoted” to a first type of data,
`
`which is the high speed packet data in interval T1, and has an additional portion of
`
`the message rate interval “reserved” for the second type of data, which is the low
`
`frequency data in interval TQ. Col. 5, lines 42 to 48; col. 8, lines 18 to 31. There is
`
`no high speed data transmitted in the low frequency data interval TQ.
`
`23.
`
`Each high speed packet transmitted during the high speed time interval
`
`is provided at a message rate sufficient to form a “complete message” within the
`
`-7-
`
`7
`
`

`

`devoted portion of each message rate interval. A packet has a beginning and an end,
`
`and Mosch et al. states that the reset signal (shown as signal 310 in Figure 3) is applied
`
`“after receiving each packet data burst,” which is used to determine “the end of the
`
`packet.” Col. 4, lines 32 to 40. Mosch et al. does not disclose any breaking or
`
`fragmeniing of the packet data, and refers to the data transmitted during each of the
`
`time slots as “a packet” Col. 1, lines 31 to 34. Because a single packet is transmitted
`
`in each fime slot Tlthrough TN, the packets are “complete.”
`
`24.
`
`Further, Mosch et a1. states that the protocol has a “predetennined
`
`number of bits per packet,” (Col. 3, lines 45 to 50), and that the packet in each
`
`message rate interval is sent by a single ONU. For example, ONU—l transmits in time
`
`slot T1, while ONU—2 transmits in time slot T2. Col. 3, lines 12 to 14. Because each
`
`message rate interval contains a single predetermined packet from a single source, the
`
`high speed packet data is provided as a “complete message” within the devoted
`
`portion of each message rate interval, 3.32, interval T1 in message rate interval 1.
`
`25.
`
`The low frequency data in each message rate interval, which is the
`
`second type of data, consists of only a single sample, and is therefore a fragment of a
`
`message, 229., the time variation of the low—frequency data signal. As shown in the low
`
`frequency sampled output 340 of Figure 3, only a single value is sampled in each quiet
`
`interval TQ. Col. 5, lines 21 to 35.
`
`26. Mosch et al. describes that the low frequency data is sampled only during
`
`the period TQ in each message rate interval. Col. 5, lines 21 to 35. As shown in
`
`_3_
`
`8
`
`

`

`Mosch et al., this low frequency data is sampled once in each message rate interval.
`
`For example, in Figure 3, the low frequency sampled output 340 changes its value
`
`once each message rate interval. Additionally, Mosch et a1. describes that only a single
`
`value for this signal is fed to a Sample and Hold circuit each message rate interval.
`
`Col. 8, lines 18 to 20.
`
`27. Mosch et a1. describes the low frequency data being used for, e.g.,
`
`distance ranging or communicating “audio or terminal status information.” Col. 1, line
`
`57 to col. 2, line 2. Communicating audio or terminal status information would
`
`require more than a single sample and, therefore, would require multiple message rate
`
`intervals in order to communicate the complete message. Thus, the single sample of
`
`low frequency data that is in each message rate interval is a “fragment” of a message.
`
`28.
`
`Further,
`
`the low speed Class A automotive multiplexing protocols
`
`described by Jurgen contain more than a single bit in each message. The SAE J2058
`
`CSC network has a data field length of up to 32 bits. Jurgen, at page 26.24. The
`
`multiplexing of any multi—bit message disclosed in Jurgen on a network in the manner
`
`disclosed in Mosch et al. would allow the low speed message to be spread among
`
`multiple message rate intervals. Therefore, only a fragment of the low speed message
`
`is in a single message rate interval. Efficient transmission of any low—frequency,
`
`multi—bit message using the protocol disclosed in Mosch et al., including many of the
`
`protocols disclosed in Jurgen, would dictate that multiple message rate intervals would
`
`9
`
`

`

`be required to transmit a complete low-frequency, multi—bit message because only a
`
`fragment of the low—frequency data is contained in each message rate interval.
`
`29. Mosch ct al. describes that at least one of the first and second types of
`
`data are transmitted in the respective portions of each message rate interval. For
`
`example, Mosch et al. describes that the ONUs are given time slots “in which to
`
`transmit data” in packet form. Col. 1, lines 25 to 34. Therefore, the ONUs will
`
`transmit their data, the high speed packet data (first type of data), in the respective
`
`portions (T 1 through TN) of each message rate interval.
`
`30.
`
`It would have been obvious to combine Jurgen and Mosch et al. Jurgen
`
`describes that it was known in the automotive field to transmit messages of different
`
`message rates on a single network-
`
`Jurgen, page 26.3. Mosch et al. describes a
`
`particular method for accomplishing this that allows both high speed and low speed
`
`data to be sampled and reconstructed by a receiver.
`
`31.
`
`Further, Jurgen describes that using various multiplexing protocols in
`
`automobiles can reduce cumbersome wiring harnesses. jurgen, at Preface. In order to
`
`accomplish this, Jurgen describes that different types of protocols can be multiplexed
`
`together in a “single network architecture” that “carries both the Class A and Class B
`
`messages on one network.” Page 26.24. The use of the protocol described in Mosch
`
`et al., which multiplexes data at
`
`two different message rates across a common
`
`communication link, would accomplish this same goal.

`
`

`

`
`Additionally, though Mosch et al. is not limited to optical networks (col.
`
`9, lines 7 to 11), Jurgen describes that optical networks can be used for automotive
`
`multiplexing. For example, according to Jurgen, at least the CAN, SAE J2016, and
`
`TTP automotive multiplexing protocols can utilize fiber optics as the transmission
`
`medium. Jurgen, at page 26.24.
