`
`knowledge of one of ordinary skill in the relevant art. Where HTC cites to a particular drawing
`
`or figure, the citation encompasses the description of the drawing or figure as well as any text
`
`associated with the drawing or figure. Similarly, where HTC cites to particular text concerning a
`
`drawing or figure, the citation encompasses that drawing or figure as well. Also, where HTC
`
`cites to any portion of prior art as disclosing a particular limitation, that citation applies with
`
`equal force to all similar or identical limitations in each of the Asserted Claims.
`
`In addition to the prior art identified herein and in the accompanying invalidity claim
`
`charts, HTC also incorporates by reference any additional invalidity contentions, identified prior
`
`art, and/or invalidity claim charts previously disclosed by any party to any other pending or prior
`
`litigation or U.S. Patent & Trademark Office proceeding involving the Asserted Patents or any
`
`related patent, including any invalidity contentions yet to be produced by Plaintiff from prior
`
`litigations and proceedings. HTC also incorporates by reference any additional invalidity
`
`contentions, identified prior art, and/or invalidity claim charts disclosed at any later date by any
`
`party to any other litigation or U.S. Patent & Trademark Office proceeding involving the
`
`Asserted Patents or any related patent, including, but not limited to, invalidity contentions from
`
`Apple Inc. (Case No. 4-14-cv-01853); Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. et al (Case No. 2-17-cv-

`
`Furthermore, the identification of anticipatory references and obviousness combinations
`
`of references provided below under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103 is merely exemplary and is not
`
`intended to be exhaustive. In particular, HTC is currently unaware of the extent to which
`
`Plaintiff may contend that limitations of the claims at issue are not disclosed in the art identified
`
`by HTC as anticipatory. To the extent that an issue arises with any such limitation, HTC
`
`reserves the right to identify other references which make obvious the addition of the allegedly

`
`DEFENDANTS‘ INVALIDITY CONTENTIONS
`
`Defendants Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Samsung Electronics America,
`
`Inc.
`
`(collectively, “Defendants"), by their attorneys, make these Invalidity Contentions concerning
`
`US. Patent Nos. 8,441,438 (“the ”438 Patent”) and 8,552,978 (“the ’978 Patent”) (collectively,
`
`“Asserted Patents”), to Plaintiff CyWee Group Ltd. (“Plaintiff’ or “CyWee”) in connection with
`
`the above—referenced action, pursuant to the Docket Control Order entered by the Court (Dkt.
`
`No. 34) and Local Patent Rule (P.R.) 3-3. The citation of prior art herein and the accompanying
`
`Exhibits are not intended to reflect Defendants‘ claim construction contentions, which will be
`
`disclosed in due course in accordance with the Docket Control Order, and may instead reflect
`
`Plaintiff’s apparent (and potentially erroneous) claim constructions based on its Infringement
`
`Contentions.
`
`Defendants” Invalidity Contentions herein reflect Defendants1 knowledge as of this early
`
`date in the present action. Defendants reserve the right, to the extent permitted by the Court and
`
`the applicable statutes and rules,
`
`to modify and/or supplement their Invalidity Contentions in
`
`response to becoming aware of additional prior art or information regarding prior art, any
`
`modification or supplementation of Plaintiff’s Infringement Contentions, any claim construction

`
`In addition, there is no essential feature in any of the references that conflicts with an
`
`essential feature of any other. Thus, one of ordinary skill in the art would have naturally been
`
`motivated to combine the teachings found within these references.
`
`Accordingly, combining the teachings of Wells with one or more of Abbate, Yang,
`
`Bachmann, Zhu, Gallagher, Nasiri, Bachmann 11, and/or Simon is merely: (a) a combination of
`
`prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results;
`
`(b) a simple
`
`substitution of one known element for another to obtain predictable results; (c) a use of known
`
`technique to improve similar devices in the same way; (d) application ofa known technique to a
`
`known device ready for improvement to yield predictable results; (6) obvious to try; and/or (1")
`
`known work in one field ofendeavor prompting variations of it for use in either the same field or
`
`a different one based on design incentives or other market forces since the variations are
`
`predictable to one of ordinary skill in the art.

`Any grounds of invalidity based on indefiniteness under 35 U.S.C.
`§ 112(2) or enablement or written description under 35 U.S.C.
`§ 112(1) of any of the asserted claims.
`
`In addition to and including the grounds of invalidity set forth in the Invalidity
`
`Contentions incorporated by reference herein, Defendants contend that the asserted claims ofthe
`
`Asserted Patents are invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 112, paragraphs one andfor two for at least the
`
`following reasons.
`
`A.
`
`[ndefiniteness under 35 U.S.C. § 112(2)
`
`The asserted claims of the Asserted Patents are invalid because they fail to meet the
`
`“definiteness” requirement of 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 112,
`
`‘l 2, which states that
`
`the claims must
`
`“particularly point[] out and distinctly claim[] the subject matter which the inventor [] regards as
`
`[the] invention." In particular, the asserted claims of the Asserted Patents are indefinite because

`magnetism Mx', My' and M2' for the second
`signal set"
`
`To the extent other asserted claims contain one of these terms or phrases, either directly
`
`or through being a dependent claim of a claim that does, those asserted claims of the Asserted
`
`Patents are invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 112, '1 2.
`
`The claims are indefinite because they fail to inform, with reasonable certainty, those
`
`skilled in the art about the scope of the invention.
`
`B.
`
`Lack of Enablement under 35 U.S.C. §112(l)
`
`The asserted claims of the Asserted Patents are invalid because they fail to meet the
`
`“enablement” requirement of 35 U.S.C. § 112,
`
`'1 1, because the Asserted Patents does not
`
`disclose sufficient information to enable or teach one skilled in the field ofthe invention to make
`
`and use the full scope of the claimed invention without undue experimentation for at least the
`
`following temis or phrases:
`

`
`Pursuant to Local Rule 131(a), Defendants HTC Corporation and HTC America, Inc.
`
`(collectively, “HTC”), by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby disclose to Plaintiff
`
`CyWee Group Ltd. the following list of claim terms in U.S. Patent Nos. 8,441,438 (“the ’438
`
`Patent”) and 8,522,978 (“the ’978 Patent”) (together, “Asserted Patents”) that Defendants
`
`contend should be construed by the Court.
`
`HTC’s investigation and discovery are ongoing, and HTC, therefore, reserves the right to
`
`amend and/or supplement this list contained herein. HTC further reserves the right to
`
`supplement this disclosure in light of the positions that Plaintiff takes in this litigation, the
`
`positions that Plaintiff takes in related litigation involving the Asserted Patents, and any claim
`
`construction decisions issued in any proceeding involving the Asserted Patents. Such positions
`
`and decisions may require the Court to construe other claim terms in addition to the ones listed in
`
`this disclosure. In particular, HTC reserves the right to propose a construction for any additional
`
`terms that Plaintiff proposes for construction.
`
`The following terms, phrases, or clauses are identified for construction wherever they
`
`appear in any claim or element, including all dependent claims or claims where multiple terms
`
`appear in combination. To the extent that the asserted claims contain identical claim terms,
`
`phrases, or clauses, HTC’s identifications below shall apply equally to each of the asserted
`
`claims in which those claim terms, phrases, or clauses appear. HTC contends that all terms not
`
`identified should be given the ordinary and customary meaning that the term would have to a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art in question reading the asserted patents at the time of the
`
`invention, i.e., as of the effective filing dates of the patent applications.
`
`In accordance with the above, HTC provides the following list of those claim terms in
`
`need of construction along with their respective proposed constructions:
`
`1. utilizing a comparison to compare the first signal set with the second signal set (’438
`
`patent at claim 1);

`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 131, Defendants HTC Corporation and HTC America, Inc.
`
`(collectively, “HTC”) by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby disclose to Plaintiff
`
`CyWee Group Ltd. (“CyWee”) their proposed claim constructions for terms of claims 1, 3, 4, 5,
`
`14, 15, 17, and 19 of U.S. Patent No. 8,441,438 (“the ’438 Patent”), and claims 10 and 12 of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,522,978 (“the ’978 Patent”) disclosed by the parties pursuant to Patent L.R. 130.
`
`HTC notes that its position regarding claim construction is preliminary, and HTC reserves the
`
`right to supplement and/or amend its constructions once CyWee identifies the constructions it
`
`believes are in dispute as part of the meet and confer process required under Patent L.R. 4-1(c)
`
`and/or in light of CyWee’s proposed claim construction(s). HTC incorporates by reference
`
`discovery and evidence from related actions in the Western District of Washington, including
`
`CyWee Group Ltd. v. Apple Inc. (Case No. 4-14-cv-01853); CyWee Group Ltd. v. Samsung
`
`Electronics Co. Ltd. et al (Case No. 2-17-cv-00140); CyWee Group Ltd. v. LG Electronics, Inc.
`
`et al (Case No. 3-17-cv-01102); CyWee Group Ltd. v. Huawei Technologies, Co., Inc. (Case No.
`
`2:17-cv-00495); CyWee Group Ltd. v. Motorola Mobility LLC (Case No. 1-17-cv-00780); and
`
`CyWee Group Ltd. v. ZTE Corporation (Case No. 3-17-cv-02130).
`
`In accordance with the above, HTC provides the following list of those claim terms in
`
`need of construction along with their respective proposed constructions:

`
`DECLARATION OF JOSEPH J. LAVIOLA, JR., PH.D.
`
`I hereby declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I have been asked by counsel for Plaintiff CyWee Group Ltd. (“CyWee”) to offer
`
`my opinions regarding claim construction and indefiniteness for certain terms.
`
`2.
`
`In connection with the preparation of this Declaration, I have reviewed the
`
`materials listed below:
`
`• U.S. Patent No. 8,441,438 (the “’438 patent”),
`
`• U.S. Patent No. 8,552,978 (the “’978 patent”),
`
`• The file wrappers for both the ’438 and ’978 patents,
`
`• The parties’ respective Patent L.R. 4-2 preliminary claim constructions and materials,
`
`• The parties’ revised claim constructions,
`
`• The Declaration of Ray M. Mercer, dated January 26, 2018 (“Mercer Dec.”), and
`
`• Any additional evidence cited herein.
`
`3.
`
`All of the opinions stated in this Declaration are based on my personal knowledge
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00140-RWS-RSP Document 66-6 Filed 02/23/18 Page 5 of 39 PageID #: 1733Case 2:17-cv-00932-JLR Document 81-1 Filed 04/30/18 Page 22 of 55
`
`the term is indefinite. Clear and convincing evidence requires that the challenging party prove
`
`that it is highly probably that the challenger’s contention is correct. In evaluating a term for
`
`indefiniteness, I have been told that the meaning of the words depends on the context of the term
`
`used within the claim and specification.
`
`IV. OPINIONS REGARDING SPECIFIC TERMS
`
`A. “utilizing a comparison to compare the first signal set with the second signal set”
`(’438 patent claim 1)
`
`17.
`
`CyWee proposes that this term be construed as “determining or assessing
`
`differences based on a previous state associated with the first signal set and a measured state
`
`associated with the second signal set while calculating deviation angles.” Samsung alleges that
`
`this term is indefinite. In my opinion this term is not indefinite because it informs, with
`
`reasonable certainty, a person of ordinary skill in the art, of the scope of the invention. Further, it
`
`is my opinion that this term has the meaning proposed by CyWee when read by a person of
`
`ordinary skill in the art in light of the intrinsic evidence.
`
`18.
`
`“Comparison” of two values in mathematics and computer science generally
`
`refers to determining or assessing differences between those values as required by CyWee’s
`
`construction. That determination may be a relation between them, e.g. they are equal or unequal
`
`and one is larger than the other. Comparison can also refer to assessing by what amount two
`
`values are different. This understanding is consistent with CyWee’s construction, which requires
`
`“determining or assessing differences.” One approach to this assessment would be to subtract
`
`one value from another to determine the difference. If two values cannot be directly compared,
`
`such as being in different units or different physical quantities, values can often be mapped or
`
`transformed to a common state/units/space before comparison. For example, when comparing
`
`monetary amounts in different currencies (i.e. rubles vs. francs), those currencies can be
`
`
`

`
`converted to a common currency.
`
`19.
`
`The ’438 patent itself provides support for CyWee’s construction. The
`
