`
`DEFENDANT’S STATEMENT OF FACT
`
`SUPPORTING EVIDENCE
`
`Independent Claims 1 and 21 of U.S. Patent
`No. 6,013,007 (the ’007 patent) contain a
`claim element expressed in means-plus-
`function claiming format:
`
`“means for computing athletic performance
`feedback data from the series of time-
`stamped waypoints obtained by said GPS
`receiver”.
`The function performed by the means for
`computing claim element in claims 1 and 21
`is “computing athletic performance
`feedback data from the series of time-
`stamped waypoints obtained by said GPS
`receiver”
`
`The specification of the ’007 patent does
`not disclose a corresponding structure
`clearly linked or associated with performing
`the claimed function of “computing athletic
`performance feedback data from the series
`of time-stamped waypoints obtained by said
`GPS receiver”.
`
`The specification of the ’007 patent states
`that GPS units available at the time of filing
`of the ’007 application “do not include real-
`time athletic performance algorithms.”
`
`The specification of the ’007 patent claims
`that a “smart algorithm can be used to filter
`out the erroneous position points resulting

`
`DEFENDANT’S STATEMENT OF FACT
`from signal interference or from induced
`errors through the U.S. government's
`Selective Availability (SA) program, which
`intentionally limits the absolute accuracy of
`civilian GPS receivers.”
`
`The specification of the ’007 patent does
`not disclose any of the step-by-step details
`of any algorithm performed by a processor
`that is clearly linked or associated with
`performing the claimed function of
`“computing athletic performance feedback
`data from the series of time-stamped
`waypoints obtained by said GPS receiver.”.
`
`Philips’ disclosures provided pursuant to
`patent local rule 16.6(d)(1)(A)(iv), requiring
`identification of the corresponding
`structures for means-plus-function
`limitations, contains no identification of a
`particular algorithm performed by a
`processor that corresponds to the function of
`“computing athletic performance feedback
`data from the series of time-stamped
`waypoints obtained by said GPS receiver.”
`
`Philips’ infringement claim charts directed
`to the “means for computing athletic
`performance feedback data from the series
`of time-stamped waypoints obtained by said
`GPS receiver” recited by claim 1 and 7 of
`the ’007 patent point to the functional
`results of using a GPS device in the accused
`products, and fail to identify a particular
`algorithm performed by a processor in the
`accused products as allegedly performing
`the claimed functions of “computing
`athletic performance feedback data from the
`series of time-stamped waypoints obtained
`by said GPS receiver.”
`
`NO.
