` A The address is Camden House, which is
`in School Lane in Tiddington, Stratford-upon-Avon
`in the UK.
` Q Thank you. So you understand that
`you're under oath today?
` A I do.
` Q And your testimony in this deposition
`will have the same legal effect as testimony in a
`trial?
` A Yes, I do.
` Q And you understand that your
`testimony in this deposition may be read to the
`jury or used in other proceedings in this lawsuit?
` A Yes.
` Q Thank you.
` I will be asking you a series of
`questions and, for purposes of the transcript and
`the court reporter, we ask that you, please, make
`your responses verbal, so, instead of nodding,
`actually saying yes or no.
` A Yes, I understand.
` Q And if you don't hear a question that
`I ask you, please ask me to repeat it, and, if you
`don't understand a question, please ask me to
`rephrase it.
`
`Page 9
`
` A Okay.
` Q Please also wait until I finish my
`question before answering, and I will also wait for
`you to answer before I ask my next question.
` From time to time your attorney may
`object to a question that I ask. For the record,
`you'll be required to answer the question unless
`your attorney directs you to not answer the
`question.
` A Okay.
` Q And if, for some reason, you realise
`that an answer that you gave earlier in the
`deposition is not correct or you feel like there's
`additional information that you need to provide,
`please let me know so that we can discuss that.
` A I will.
` Q Is there any reason that you are not
`able to participate in the deposition to your
`fullest advantage today?
` A No, there is no reason.
` Q Thank you.
` Dr. Wesby, you did not invent GSM,
`correct?
` A Could you repeat that question?
` Q You did not invent GSM, correct?

` A That is correct.
` Q You did not invent GPRS, correct?
` A That is correct.
` Q You did not invent SMS, correct?
` A That's correct.
` Q You did not invent CDMA, correct?
` A That's correct.
` MR. HENSCHKE: I'm going to object
`and instruct the witness not to answer these
`questions any further.
` These questions, clearly, address the
`issue of inventorship, which was already covered at
`the previous deposition in August of 2012, and,
`according to the Court's scheduling order, the
`defendants are not permitted today to return to the
`same topics that were previously covered.
` Inventorship, obviously, was the main
`topic covered at that time. These questions are,
`therefore, duplicative of inventorship topics and
`the witness will not answer any further questions
`of this nature, and I'm instructing her as such.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree with that
`statement. We believe that these questions are
`relevant to what existed in the prior art and are
`unrelated to inventorship. We believe that these
`
`Page 11
`
`questions are appropriate.
` MR. HENSCHKE: Your questions are
`being directly phrased in terms of what Dr. Wesby
`invented. You could not possibly be more clearly
`asking questions about inventorship and, if the
`questions are going to be anything along those
`lines, she's going to be instructed not to answer.
` MR. LOEWENSTEIN: I'll just kick in.
`I don't know if you can hear me. But these
`questions are related to invalidity, which is
`different than what we talked about last time which
`related to inventorship.
` So you can instruct her not to
`answer, but she'll be back in Delaware pretty soon.
` MR. HENSCHKE: The question is -- is
`directly a question as to whether she invented
`something and, clearly, is a question on
`inventorship. And if it's going to be put in those
`terms, she's not going to answer the questions or
`any other like those.
` MR. LOEWENSTEIN: Well, you can do
`what you want. I guess we'll just press ahead.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent CDMA,
`correct?

` Q Dr. Wesby, CDMA was known prior to
`the filing date of your Programmable Communicator
`patent, correct?
` A That's correct.
` Q And, for the record, you agree that
`the Programmable Communicator patent is US Patent
`Number 8,094,010, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: If you need to see the
`document, please ask for it.
` THE WITNESS: Can -- can you repeat
`the question in full, please?
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q You agree that the Programmable
`Communicator patent is US Patent Number 8,094,010,
`correct?
` A Yes.
` Q Okay. Dr. Wesby, you did not invent
`GPS, correct?

`

`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, packet-switched data
`networks were known prior to the filing of your
`Programmable Communicator patent, correct?
` A That's correct.
` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent coded
`numbers, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, coded numbers were known
`prior to the filing of your Programmable
`Communicator patent, correct?
` A That's correct.
` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent the use
`of coded numbers in wireless communications,
`correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, the use of coded numbers
`in wireless communications was known prior to the
`filing of your Programmable Communicator patent --
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection.
`BY MS. HAYES:
`
`Page 15
`
` Q -- correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Instruct the witness
`not to answer.
` That question was -- exact question
`was asked in the prior day's deposition. That's
`a duplicative topic. I instruct the witness not to
`answer.
` MS. HAYES: I disagree. Can you
`please point out where in the deposition transcript
`that exact question was asked?
` MR. HENSCHKE: If you want to go off
`the record, I can find the reference for you. And
`it's not relevant whether the exact question was
`asked. The issue that's relevant is whether that
`topic was covered, and Dr. Wesby has already been
`asked whether she was aware of the use of coded
`number authentication with wireless devices in the
`previous day's deposition.
` MS. HAYES: I disagree with that.
`I believe we're entitled to ask this question. It
`was not asked before, and we have the right to get
`a clear answer on the record to this question.
` MR. HENSCHKE: Again, the issue is
`not whether the exact question was asked before.
`The issue is whether the topic was covered before,

`and the topic of whether Dr. Wesby knew whether or
`not coded numbers and authentication were used
`with wireless devices was directly covered at the
`August 2012 deposition, as that written record will
`reflect. And, accordingly, Dr. Wesby's being
`instructed not to answer that question, which is
`clearly duplicative.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree with your
`instruction. We reserve the right to go to the
`Court and seek our travel costs and fees in
`reimbursement.
` MR. HENSCHKE: You're welcome to do
`that.
`BY MS. HAYES:

`of passwords in wireless communications, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, passwords in wireless
`communications were known prior to the filing of

` THE WITNESS: That's correct.

` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent PUK
`codes, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, PUK codes were known prior
`to the filing of your Programmable Communicator --
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer. The questions about PUK
`codes and her knowledge of it in the prior art were
`asked at the previous August deposition.
`Therefore, this a duplicative topic.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree. And I also
`ask that you please wait for me to finish my
`question before objecting.

`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, PUK codes were known prior
`to the filing of the Programmable Communicator
`patent, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer. Duplicative topic from
`August of 2012 deposition.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, the use of PUK codes in
`wireless communications was known prior to the
`filing of the Programmable Communicator patent,
`correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer. Duplicative topic from
`August of 2012. Already answered by the witness.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree, and we don't
`believe that she answered that question at her
`prior deposition.
` We'd like to go off the record for
`a few minutes, please.
` MR. HENSCHKE: Okay.
` VIDEOGRAPHER: Off the record. It's

`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, using PUK codes for
`security in wireless communications was known prior
`to the filing of the Programmable Communicator
`patent, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer. That's a topic already
`addressed in the August 2012 deposition.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree. We believe
`that these questions relate to the scope of the
`prior art, and you instructed witnesses not to
`answer those questions in the prior deposition.
` MR. HENSCHKE: This particular
`question was asked and answered in the prior
`deposition.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree. We don't
`think that this question was asked --
` MR. HENSCHKE: The record speaks for
`itself. You can go read the deposition transcript
`from the earlier deposition.

`
` And I should also point out that
`slightly changing the wording of a question that
`was asked before is not going to get you past the
`impediment of not returning to duplicative topics
`in this deposition today.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree with your
`instruction. We don't think these are duplicative
`questions, and we think that this relates to a
`different topic. This relates to what was known in
`the prior art, not inventorship. We're not trying
`to determine whether Mr. Wesby -- or Dr. Wesby
`invented the claims of the patent. We're trying to
`determine what was known in the prior art. These
`are different questions.
` MR. HENSCHKE: I don't necessarily
`disagree with you that it has some relation to the
`prior art. My point is that this question, this
`question, was already asked and answered, and it's
`not going to be returned to.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree. The
`question was not asked or answered in the prior
`deposition.
` MR. HENSCHKE: The deposition record
`will speak for itself.

` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent unique
`identifiers for wireless devices, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer. This is a topic clearly
`addressed to inventorship, which was the subject of
`a full-day deposition in August of 2012, and is not
`to be returned to today.
` MS. HAYES: For the reasons
`previously stated, we disagree.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, unique identifiers for
`wireless devices were known prior to the filing of
`the Programmable Communicator, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: If you know.
` THE WITNESS: I am not sure. I am
`not sure.

`specific, please, about what kind of interfaces you
`mean and in what circumstances?
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, do you understand what
`I mean by interfaces?
` A No. I -- I think interface, like you
`put it in the sentence, is -- is very generic.
`I've no idea what you're talking about.
` Q Were interfaces used on mobile
`devices prior to the filing of your Programmable
`Communicator patent?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. The
`question's unclear about what kind of interfaces
`we're referring to here.
` (To the witness) You can answer if
`you know.
` THE WITNESS: I don't think so.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, were RS-232 interfaces
`
`Page 25
`
`used in wireless communications --

` Q -- prior --
` A Sorry to interrupt. I don't know.
` Q Okay. Dr. Wesby, were antennas used

`your Programmable Communicator patent?
` A Yes.
` Q Dr. Wesby, you did not invent the use
`of a memory module in wireless communications
`devices, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Instruct
`the witness not to answer.
` MS. HAYES: Why are you instructing
`the witness not to answer?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Your question was
`about what she invented, which is not a proper
`topic of today's deposition, as I've said many
`times already.
` MS. HAYES: We disagree. We don't
`believe that that question was asked in the prior
`deposition.
` MR. HENSCHKE: It doesn't matter
`whether it was asked in the prior deposition. The
`scheduling order is framed in terms of not

`revisiting duplicative topics, and the topic of
`inventorship was covered for a full day with
`Dr. Wesby in 2012. You do not have a right to
`return to that topic today.
` MS. HAYES:
` MR. LOEWENSTEIN: Excuse me.
`Mr. Henschke, are you equating inventorship with
`invalidity over the prior art?
` MR. HENSCHKE: I'm responding to a
`question that was posed directly on the question of
`inventorship, Mr. Loewenstein.
` MR. LOEWENSTEIN: Could you answer my
`question?
` MR. HENSCHKE: I'm not here to be
`deposed by you.
` MR. LOEWENSTEIN: Thank you.
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, the use of memory modules
`in wireless communications devices was known prior
`to the filing of the Programmable Communicator
`patent, correct?
` A I don't know.
` Q Dr. Wesby, did you own a mobile
`device prior to the filing of the Programmable
`Communicator patent?
`
`Page 27
`
` A I did.
` Q Were phone numbers stored on the
`mobile device that you owned prior to the filing of
`the Programmable Communicator interface?
` A Yes, I think so.
` Q Was a memory module -- strike that.
` Memory modules in mobile devices were
`known prior to the filing of the Programmable
`Communicator patent, correct?
` A I don't know. I don't know what they
`called it. I was -- at that time I'd had the very
`first mobile phone with very little use, and
`I don't know whether that constitutes the concept
`you're just asking about.
` Q What did you --
` A I don't know what they called it.
` Q I'm sorry. What do you under --
` A I don't know what they called it.
`I mean, it was a specific question, but the
`knowledge that I have about my first mobile phone
`at the time is quite limited.
` Q Did your mobile device have memory?
` A I can't even answer that. I can't
`be -- no, I'm not sure.

`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, the use of a processing
`module in a wireless communications device was
`known prior to the filing of your Programmable
`Communicator patent, correct?
` MR. HENSCHKE: Objection. Can we
`have some clarification of what you mean by
`"processing module" for purposes of your question?
`BY MS. HAYES:
` Q Dr. Wesby, do you understand what
`I mean by a processing module?
` A I would like you to be more specific.
` Q Dr. Wesby, are you familiar with the
`term "processor"?
` A As a generic word.
` Q What is your understanding of a
`processor?
` A It depends in what context.
` Q In the context of a mobile device.
` A I still think it's a very generic
`word. It can mean a lot of things. I think the
`
`Page 29
`
`question is not specific enough for me to answer.
` Q Can you explain to me the different
`ideas that you're thinking of for a processor that
`you're aware of? The different meanings that you
`have?
` A Well, it can be processing of
`materials. It can be processing of data. It can
`be processing of instructions. It can be
`processing of identification codes, etcetera.
`There's an endless choice.
` Q Dr. Wesby, were processors that
`processed data known prior to the filing of your
`Programmable Communicator patent?
` A I don't know.
` Q Dr. Wesby, were processors that
`processed instructions known prior to the filing of
`your Programmable Communicator patent?
` A I don't know. Some -- some of them
`may, but I don't know exactly which type was known
`and in use and in what kind of device, by when,
`etcetera. I'm sorry.
` Q Dr. Wesby, were processors that
`processed information known prior to the filing of
`the Programmable Communicator patent?
` A You're asking in general?
