`Complainant’s Proof of Infringement
`U.S. Patent No. 9,705,400 — Claims 1, 8, 13, and 15
`
`No part of this exemplary chart construes, or is intended to construe, the claims, specification, or prosecution history of the ’400
`patent. The claims have not yet been construed. The following claims and claim limitations are satisfied literally and/or under the
`doctrine of equivalents unless specifically noted. This exemplary chart does not limit, and is not intended to limit, Ericsson’s
`positions or contentions on claim construction, infringement, domestic industry, or validity. Further, Ericsson reserves the right to rely
`on other claims and/or products to establish the technical prong of the domestic industry requirement or to establish infringement. This
`chart should not be construed as providing any positions on claim construction, such as, for example, whether any claim preamble
`should be limiting or whether any claim element is subject to 35 U.S.C. Section 112(f). The evidence cited to is exemplary and non-
`limiting. Ericsson reserves the right to update its infringement and domestic industry contentions through discovery.
