`
`PUSCH_power = -RX_power + interference_correctoin +
`
`offset_power + added_correction + power_ramp_up +
`
`PC_correction + PUSCH_RACH_power_offset;
`
`This rewritten equation shows that the transmit power for Message 3 is based
`
`on f(0), i.e., the sum of the PC_correction (ΔPPC ) and the power_ramp_up value
`
`(ΔPrampup). (Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0069]-[0071]).
`
`The power_ramp_up variable is used as part of the preamble power and the
`
`calculation of f(0). This use of the power_ramp_up value is consistent with the
`
`‘966 patent’s use of the terms. (Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0073]-[0076]). Specifically, Claim 5
`
`does not initially appear to be consistent with Claim 1. Specifically, Claim 1 notes
`
`that the initial transmit power is based on the “preamble power” and f(0). Claim 5
`
`recites Ppreamble but does not expressly recite f(0). (Ex. 1002, ¶[0075]). As noted in
`
`the International Search Report of the corresponding PCT application, the equation
`
`in Claim 5 does not appear to be consistent with the wording of Claim 1. (See, Ex.
`
`1013). In the PCT application, Claim 6 as originally filed is the same as Claim 5 in
`
`the ‘966 patent. (See Ex. 1014).
`
`Claim 5 recites ΔPC_Msg3, which as explained below is equal to ΔPC when
`
`calculating the power for Message 3. The formula in Claim 5, however, does not
`
`expressly recite ΔPrampup. f(0), therefore, is not found in the equation as written in
`
`Claim 5. The missing ΔPrampup, however, can be found in Claim 5 as part of the

`
`
`Ppreamble calculation. (‘966 patent, 6:18-26; Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0075]-[0076]). Just as
`
`
`
`above, the equation in Claim 5 can be rewritten with the Ppreamble variable expanded
`
`per Equation 3 from the ‘966 patent. When this is done, Claim 5 recites a formula
`
`for calculating a transmit power that depends on both Ppreamble and f(0) = ΔPPC
`
`+ΔPrampup. (Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0074]-[0076]). Not allowing ΔPrampup to be considered
`
`part of the preamble transmit power and f(0) leads to Claims 5 and 14 that cannot
`
`be reconciled with Claims 1 and 11, respectively. (Ex. 1002, ¶[0076]).
`
`Qualcomm, therefore, teaches calculating an initial transmit power that depends
`
`on the “second power control adjustment state f(0).” (Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0073]-[0076])
`
`Further, by calculating the sum of the PC_correction and the power_ramp_up
`
`value as part of calculating the RACH power, Qualcomm teaches initializing f(0).
`
`(Ex. 1002, ¶¶ [0069]-[0072]).
`
`The ‘966 patent defines f(0) as both being calculated with ΔPPC +ΔPrampup and
`
`reflecting an “open loop power control error.” (‘966 patent, Claim 1). Open loop
`
`power control error can be represented as ΔPPC = P0_UE_PUSCH +f(0) - ΔPrampup. (Ex.
`
`1002, ¶[0046] and ¶[0072]). This equation can be rewritten as f(0) = ΔPPC +
`
`ΔPrampup - P0_UE_PUSCH. (Ex. 1002, ¶[0046]). Accordingly, the ΔPPC value that is
`
`part of f(0) reflects an “open loop power control error.” (Ex. 1002, ¶[0046] and
`
`¶[0072]). Qualcomm’s use of the PC_correction value, therefore, also reflects an
`
`open loop power control error. (Ex. 1002, ¶¶[0071]-[0072]).
