`
` EXAMINATION
`BY MR. FAHMI:
` Q Dr. Kiaei, thank you for appearing for
`deposition today. This deposition is in IPR 2021-00335
`concerning U.S. Patent 10,259,020.
` Do you understand that?
` A Yes, sir, I do.
` MR. FAHMI: Okay. Prior to going on the
`record, Samsung counsel and I have -- have reached an
`agreement concerning the deposition.
` And, Ali, correct me if I'm wrong; but we've
`agreed that the deposition that we just concluded for
`the IPRs -- the '336, '337, and '338 IPRs can be used in
`connection with this '335 proceeding, and I've -- I've
`agreed to -- to not go over the same subject matter, and
`I'll -- I'll limit this deposition just to the nuances
`that are particular to the '020 patent.

`
` There's only two or three areas where I think
`they would differ from anything that we did previously
`in -- in the earlier deposition; and that otherwise, we
`can use the transcript from the earlier deposition in
`connection with the '020 patent.
` Is -- is that correct?
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Yes, that's correct.
`There are --
` MR. FAHMI: Thank you.
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: There are -- yeah,
`that's -- that's correct.
` MR. FAHMI: Thank you. I appreciate your --
`your working with us on that.
` Q So, Dr. Kiaei, do you understand we're going to
`use the transcript from the deposition that's just
`concluded in connection with this '020 patent as well
`because a lot of the time was sort of agnostic as to
`which patent we're talking about, and so in this
`deposition, I'm -- I'm just going to cover with you the
`issues that I think are particular to the '020 patent?
` Do you understand that?
` A Yes, sir, I do.
` Q Okay.
` A Thank you.
` Q Thanks.

`
` And as you did --
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: I'm sorry, Tarek. Let
`me -- I think this is clear enough, but just -- just so
`there's no misunderstanding, as you noted, a lot of the
`testimony that was given in the deposition that just
`concluded is agnostic, and that's what we are agreeing
`to be able to be used in this '335 IPR.
` There are aspects of that testimony that are
`relevant only to the '336, '337, and '338 proceedings
`because of the nature of the way the claims are written;
`and, obviously, we're not agreeing that this testimony
`is relevant or can be used with respect to the '020
`patent and the 335 proceeding.
` MR. FAHMI: Sure. That's fine. Thank you for
`clarifying.
` Q Dr. Kiaei, as -- as you did with the earlier
`deposition today, if you would please give audible
`responses. It helps the court reporter do her job.
`And, again, if you can please wait until I finish asking
`the question before you begin your answer, and I'll try
`and do the same and make sure you finish an answer
`before asking another question. That way we're not
`talking over one another and it helps for a -- a clear
`transcript.
` Is there any reason why you can't give your

`testimony in this proceeding today?
` A No, sir.
` Q If you'd like to take a break at any time, just
`let me know; and otherwise, we can proceed pretty much
`as we did with the -- the earlier deposition. Okay?
` A Thank you, sir.
` MR. FAHMI: Catherine, if we could please have
`the exhibit that's labeled 2021-00335, Exhibit 1002.
`This is the declaration concerning the '020 patent.
` THE VIDEOCONFERENCE TECHNICIAN: Exhibit 1002.
` MR. FAHMI: Thank you.
` Q Dr. Kiaei, do you recognize this exhibit?
` A Yes, sir, I do.
` Q Do you recognize it as the declaration you
`provided in connection with IPR 2021-00335?
` A Yes, sir, I do.
` Q Do you have any changes to make in this
`declaration?
` A I have one minor typo. On Page 104 of my
`declaration, I mistyped the figure number from -- from
`42 to 24 on Page 104. That's the only typo that I have
`been able to so far see.
` Q Okay. Anything else?
` A No. At this point not, but maybe I'll find
`things later.

`
` Q Did you plan to offer any testimony outside of
`this declaration?
` A No, sir.
` Q Let's turn to Paragraph Number 72, please.
` I understand from Paragraph 72 that in
`performing your analysis, you gave the claim terms of
`the '020 patent their plain and ordinary meaning.
` Is that correct?
` A That's correct.
` Q Why did you choose that?
` A Because I am looking at these claims and the
`patent and the challenge claims in terms of what the
`person of skill in the art, or a POSITA, would
`understand the claims at the time of invention; and I've
`identified also the -- what the skills of the person of
`skill in the art would be and what is their
`understanding of the field and the prior art and this
`art.
` Q So I'm not sure I understand why that requires
`the use of the plain and ordinary meaning in the claims
`of the '020 patent.
` Can you explain, please?
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Objection; form.
` THE WITNESS: Maybe I'm not quite understanding
`your question. If you don't mind repeating that

`question, that would be --
` MR. FAHMI: Sure.
` Q In Paragraph 72, you indicate that you've given
`all the claim terms of the challenge claims in the '020
`patent their plain and ordinary meaning as to be
`understood by a POSITA, correct?
` A That's correct, yes.
` Q And -- and my question was why did you give the
`claim terms their plain and ordinary meaning?
` A Because I'm looking at these patents and the
`art developed and the prior art based on the IPR that's
`preceding -- that we're discussing at this point; and I
`discuss later in this Paragraph 73 that there is a
`possible litigation and there may be a -- claim
`constructions and so forth, but I'm not considering
`those, I'm simply looking at the plain and ordinary
`meaning of the claims from a perspective of a POSITA and
`their understanding to analyze the '020 patent.
` Q So in doing your analysis, if I understand
`correctly, you didn't ascribe any special meaning to any
`of the terms in the claims in the '020 patent; is that
`right?
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Objection; form.
` THE WITNESS: My analysis has been done
`primarily from the perspective of a POSITA and I have

`not done any claim analysis or claim construction as
`I -- as I discussed in the -- sorry. Let me take that
`back. I said that -- I misspoke there.
` Let me repeat what I was going to say, is that
`I'm looking at the -- the claims and the patent from the
`perspective of a POSITA, and I have not done any claim
`constructions or have not -- I'm not aware of any claim
`constructions in this case personally, no.
`BY MR. FAHMI:
` Q Let's turn to Paragraph 22, please.
` Do you have that?
` A Yes.
` Q Here you're discussing the level of ordinary
`skill in the art for the '020 patent; is that right?
` A Yes.
` Q Is that the same level of ordinary skill in the
`art as we discussed with respect to the '320, '077, and
`'023 patents?
` A Yes, it is.
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Objection; form.
`BY MR. FAHMI:
` Q So just to be clear, it's the same level of
`ordinary skill in the art for the '020 patent as it
`would be for the '320 patent, the '077 patent, and
`the '021 patent [sic]; is that right?

`
` A Yes, looking at Paragraph 22, that is the same
`consideration I've given for the person of skill in the
`art in that area, yes.
` Q Let's turn to Paragraph 144, please.
` Do you have that?
` A One second, please.
` Q Sure.
` A I'm almost there. Thank you.
` Yes, I'm there, Counsel.
` Q In Paragraph 144, you're mapping features
`disclosed in Kim to elements in claims of the '020
`patent, and you map the sub-device in Kim to the
`portable switching device in the claims; is that right?
` A That's correct, yes.
` Q And you also map the main device in Kim to the
`portable electronic device in the claims; is that
`correct?
` A That's correct, Counsel.
` Q With those mappings in mind, what would a
`POSITA understand is activated, deactivated, or sent
`into hibernation on the main device by the sub-device?
` A So in this case, the sub-device, which is the
`portable switching device, is the one that is
`activating, deactivating, or sending into hibernation
`the main device, which is the portable electronic

`device.
` Q I'm -- I'm not sure if you finished your
`answer.
` A No. Sorry. I did, yes.
` Q So what would the POSITA understand is
`activated, deactivated, or sent into hibernation on that
`main device?
` A Activation will be to turn the device on;
`deactivation would be turn the device off; and
`hibernation, as we discussed -- I'm not going to
`reference to the other ones, the early one we had.
`Hibernation would be to go into a sleep mode or
`hibernation mode.
` Q What do you mean by a "sleep mode"?
` A That's the hibernation mode where the
`electronic device goes into hibernation mode that
`typically, but not -- this is a general statement.
`Typically means that it goes into a low-power mode or a
`sleep mode, but depends on particulars of the -- the
`device itself.
` MR. FAHMI: Let's take a short break. Maybe
`just five minutes, please. I'd like to take a look at

`
` MR. FAHMI: Let's go back on the record.
` Just a few more questions, Dr. Kiaei.
` THE WITNESS: Yes.
` MR. FAHMI: We were at Paragraph 144 in your
`declaration; and I'm looking at the next paragraph, 145;
`and here you're discussing the controller controlling
`the power supply to the display of the main device to
`turn it on and off.
` Q Do you see that?
` A Yes, sir.
` Q Are -- are you -- are you saying that in this
`paragraph, turning the display of the main device on and
`off is activating or deactivating the main device?
` A Can you please repeat the question?
` Q Sure.
` A Thank you.
` Q With respect to your comment in Paragraph 145
`of your declaration, are you saying that turning the
`display of the main device on or off is activating or
`deactivating the main device?
` A What I'm discussing here on Paragraph 147 --
`actually, 145, we're discussing, 145, is that a -- when
`the controller 180 detects that the two devices are
`coupled or -- or decoupled, it controls the power supply
`to the display of the main device to turn it on or off.

`
` Q Is that activating, deactivating, or sending
`into hibernation the main device?
` A In this case it would be activating or
`deactivating the main device 100.
` Q And in Paragraph 148, which begins at the
`bottom of Page 101 and carries on, you talk about the
`sub-device turning on or off power to the main device.
` Do you see that?
` A Yes, sir, I do.
` Q So is that activating, deactivating, or sending
`into hibernation the main device?
` A It would also be -- yes, it's activating or
`deactivating the main device.
` Q How is that done?
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Objection; form.
` THE WITNESS: In which particular example would
`you like to discuss? 148?
` MR. FAHMI: Yes, please.
` THE WITNESS: An example that Kim discusses,
`and I've also pointed out here, is that by sending a
`power control command -- this is an example. This --
`it's -- it's one example of it -- is that the user -- is
`that the signal -- the power control command signal is
`transmitted from the connection unit of the sub-device
`300 to the main device to turn it on or off or go to

`other modes.
` Turn it on or off, that's exactly what I meant
`here, to turn it on or off.
`BY MR. FAHMI:
` Q If I understand this example in Paragraph 148,
`this occurs in a state that the main device 100 and the
`sub-device 300 are separated; is that right?
` A That's correct, yes. That's correct, yes.
` Q With respect to Paragraph 149, you discuss a
`different example; is that right?
` A Yes, sir, Figure 42.
` Q Can you explain how this example shows
`activating, deactivating, or sending into hibernation
`the main device?
` A In this example, the device 100 and the
`sub-device are coupled and the power of the main device
`is turned on or off up by using either a hardware power
`key or a software key that the sub-device 300 provides
`to perform this, and then it goes into the details of
`it, the next paragraph, that when the -- the key is
`detected, the key input is transferred to the controller
`and to the main device to turn it off.
` Q On Page 106 of your declaration, there's an
`example of Figure A.
` Do you see that?

` A Yes, sir.
` Q Can you explain this Figure A, how the case of
`the main device protects the case of the sub-device?
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: Objection; form.
`Objection; contrary to our agreement.
` MR. FAHMI: I -- is it? I don't think so. I
`think this is particular to the '020.
` MR. SHARIFAHMADIAN: My objection is noted.
` THE WITNESS: As I also discussed, that -- in
`Paragraph 155 of my declaration for '020, when the
`sub-device 300 -- sorry. Let me stop here and repeat
`what I was going to say. Let me get -- the second body
`105 -- the second body 100b, in this case, is folded to
`cover the first body 100a, and the second body's 100b
`case encloses and protects the sub-device 300.
` MR. FAHMI: Okay. Let's just take a
`couple-minute break, please. I just want to review what
`we've discussed. I'll be right back. Thank you.
` (A recess was taken from 3:44 p.m.
` to 3:45 p.m.)
` MR. FAHMI: Let's go back on the record,
`please.
` Dr. Kiaei, thank you. I don't have any
`additional questions at this time.
` THE WITNESS: Thank you, Counsel. Thanks for
