`
`Applicant respectfully requests reconsideration of this application as amended.
`
`Applicant thanks the Examiner for the couitesies extended during the l‘) October 20lS
`
`interview. During the lnterview, the above claim amendments were discussed and the Examiner
`
`indicated that the changes appeared to resolve the l 12 issues and that an updated search would
`
`need to he performed.
`
`By the above anientlrnents. Applicant has addressed the 35 U. SC. §l "l2 rejection and
`
`believes it has been overcome. Withdrawal of the rejection is respectfully requested.
`
`Regarding the art-hased rejection in view ofOu, this rejection is respectfully traversed.
`
`The independent claims generally recite transmitting, only when there is data stored in
`
`the Msg3 l:-uffer and when the UL Grant was received on the random access response message,
`
`the data stored in the l\:‘lsg3 btn“fe.r to the base station using the U1. Grant received on the random
`
`access response message.
`
`01.: does not disclose this feature.
`
`Rather, in On, the U13 monitors the Contention Resolution message. When the UEZ
`
`receives an uplink grant on PDCCH addressed to the Temporary C-RNTI, the UE identities
`
`whether the HARQ process corresponding to the uplink grant is identical to the HARQ Process
`
`used for transmission of the l'vl'.AC PDLI in the Message 3 buffer. Wlten the HARQ process
`
`corresponding to the uplink grant is dil’l"erent from the E-IARQ Process used for transmission of
`
`the MAC PDU in the ‘Message 3 liuffer, the UE shall not use the received uplink grant for data
`
`transmission.
`
`With all features not being taught, suggested nor disclosed by On, Applicant respectfully
`
`requests withdrawal of the 35 U.S.C. §1l)3 rejection.
`
`With all rejections having been overcoine, Applicant respectful ly submits the application
`
`is in condition for allowance.

`1 that:
`
`Layers of radio interface protocol between the UE and the network may be classified into
`
`a first layer L1, a second layer L2 and a third layer L3 based on three lower layers of an Open
`
`System Interconnection (OSI) reference model that is widely known in the field of
`
`communication systems. A physical layer belonging 130 the first layer provides an information
`
`transfer service using a physical channel. A Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer belonging to
`
`the third layer serves to control radio resources between the UE and the network.
`
`The specification further states in paragraph 13 that:
`
`A physical (PHY) layer of the first layer provides an infonnation transfer service to an
`
`upper layer using a physical channel. The PHY layer is connected to an upper layer, such as a
`
`Medium Access Control (MAC) layer, via a transport channel. Data is transferred between the
`
`MAC layer and the PHY layer via the transport channel. At this time, the transport channel is
`
`largely divided into a dedicated transport channel and a common transport channel, depending on
`
`whether or not a channel is shared. Data is also transferred between different PHY layers, such as
`
`a physical layer ofa transmitting side and a physical layer ofa receiving side, via a physical
`
`channel using radio resources.
`
`The specification also states in paragraphs 38-39 that‘.
`
`In another aspect of the present invention, a user equipment includes a reception module
`
`receiving an uplink grant (UL Grant) signal from a base station on a specific message, a
`
`transmission module transmitting data to the base station using the UL Grant signal received on
`
`the specific message, a message 3 (Msg3) buffer storing UL data to be transmitted in a random
`
`access procedure, and a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (I-IARQ) entity determining whether
`
`there is data stored in the Msg3 buffer when the reception module receives the UL Grant signal

`Attorney Docket No.: 7836-5-CON-2

`
`

`

`and tl1e specific message is a random access response message, acquiring the data stored in the
`
`Msg3 buffer if there is data stored in the Msg3 buffer when the reception module receives the UL
`
`Grant signal and the specific message is the random access response message, and controlling the
`
`transmission module to transmit the data stored in the Msg3 buffer to the base station using the
`
`UL Grant signal received by the reception module on the specific message.
`
`The user equipment may further include a multiplexing and assembly entity used for
`
`transmission of 11ew data.
`
`In this case, the I-IARQ entity 1nay acquire the new data to be
`
`transmitted from the multiplexing and assembly entity ifthere is no data stored in the Msg3
`
`buffer when the reception module receives the UL Grant signal on the specific message or the
`
`received message is not the random access response message. and control the transmission
`
`module to transmit the new data acquired from the multiplexing and assembly entity using the UL
`
`Grant signal received b_\-' the reception module on the specific message.
`
`The specificati on further states in paragraph 137 that:
`
`In the configuration of the UE shown in FIG. 11, the Tx module 1102 and the Rs module
`
`1 WI may be configured as a physical layer processing module I 108,. ..
`
`At least based on the above portions of the specification, structural support for the
`
`requested terms has been identified — withdrawal of the objection is respectfully requested.
`
`With the objection having been overcome, Applicant respectfully submits the application
`
`is in condition for allowance.
`
`A prompt Notice of Allowance is respectfully solicited.
`
`Should the Examiner believe anything further is desirable in order to place the
`
`application in even better condition for allowance, the Examiner is encouraged to contact
`
`Applicants undersigned representative at the telephone number listed below.
