`Petitioner assumes the earliest effective filing date for all challenged claims except

`

`
`Neither the ’493 provisional nor the ’862 provisional support the

`
`patent’s priority chain, application No. 09/384,165 (“the ’165 application”). See
`
`generally Ex. 1038; Ex. 1002, ¶47; section VIII. The earliest application in the ’233

`

`
`
`
`1 Petitioner does not concede the ’493, ’401, or ’862 provisional applications
`
`provide written description support for the challenged claims, and Petitioner
`
`reserves its right to challenge these claims’ priority dates in other proceedings.
`
`Indeed, Petitioner does not concede that any challenged claims comply with the

`
`VII. OVERVIEW OF THE ’233 PATENT AND THE PRIOR ART
`
`A.
`’233 Patent
`Prior to the purported inventions of the ’233 patent, sensor device systems
`
`were widely known. Ex. 1002, ¶¶18-28. In the 1970s, NASA created a wearable
`
`sensor health monitoring system (id., ¶19; Ex. 1024) and DARPA funded various
`
`sensor networks (Ex. 1002, ¶¶19-20; Ex. 1021). By the 1990s, the use of wearable
`
`computing and sensing systems had further expanded. Ex. 1002, ¶¶20-28; see e.g.,
`
`Ex. 1022-23, 1025-26. These sensor systems included personal health and
`
`physiological monitoring devices (Ex. 1002, ¶¶25-28; Ex. 1010, 1027, 1029, 1031,
`
`1033) and often utilized short-range wireless communications (Ex. 1002, ¶¶29-34;
`
`Ex. 1014, 1012, 1034, 1036). The ’233 patent acknowledges personal monitoring
`
`systems and secure short-range wireless communication schemes were known. Ex.
`
`1002, ¶¶35-40.
`
`The ’233 patent
`
`is generally directed
`
`to a bi-directional wireless
`
`communication system including a sensor device. Ex. 1001, Title; Ex. 1002, ¶¶41-
`
`
`
`2 Petitioner submits the declaration of Dr. Joseph Paradiso (Ex. 1002), an expert in
`
`the ’233 patent’s field (Id., ¶¶3-11; Ex.1003).

`
`43. It describes a “personal medical device (PMD) 100” including at least one
`
`“wireless communications module 300” and “detector inputs 140”:
`
`
`
`Ex. 1001, 2:40-41; Ex. 1002, ¶41.3 The wireless communications module 300 allows
`
`the PMD 100 to communicate with another device using known short-range wireless
`
`communications. Ex. 1001, 3:54-58; Ex. 1002, ¶¶38, 41-42. For example, the PMD
`
`100 may communicate with “personal wireless device (PWD) 500” through a short-

`
`range “local area wireless (LAW) 330” scheme, which may include infrared or
`
`radiofrequency (RF). Ex. 1001, 4:14-18, 4:45-6:16. The PMD 100 may also
`
`communicate with a “central communication base station 700” which “serve[s] to
`
`extend the communication range of the” PMD 100. Id., 8:40-63. And, the PMD
`
`100’s “detector inputs 140” allows for “connections to related external or
`
`embedded” detectors, which may be “any sensor of bodily or physiological
`
`parameters.” Id., 3:27-30; Ex. 1002, ¶41.
`
`Communications between the PMD 100 and another device may employ a
`
`known security mechanism, because the ability “to receive and/or transmit to and
`
`control the personal device 100 requires some measure of security.” Ex. 1001, 13:27-
`
`30; Ex. 1002, ¶¶40, 43. The ’233 patent describes many “possible embodiments of
`
`security [that are] not meant to be exclusive,” including known methods such as
`
`“standard encryption algorithms,” entering a “security key,” preauthorizing access
`
`for certain users, or simply requesting permission to access the device. Ex. 1001,
`
`13:24-14:14; Ex. 1002, ¶¶40, 43.

`
`wearable sensor devices, including a vest/harness with “soldier unit 50”; an

`
`
`The system’s wrist sensor/display unit 18 is connected to sensors for detecting

`
`communications with another wearable device: a vest/harness with soldier unit 50.
