JOINT CLAIM CONSTRUCTION AND PRE-HEARING STATEMENT
Pursuant to Patent LR 16.6, Skyhook Wireless, Inc. ("Skyhook") and Google Inc.
("Google") hereby submit this Joint Claim Construction and Pre-Hearing Statement.
I.

Constructions On Which The Parties Agree
The parties have stipulated to the proper construction of nine claim terms. The parties’

agreed constructions are set forth below.
Term

'988/1
'694/1
'988/1

Agreed Construction
A radius of ten miles or more but
fewer than a hundred miles.
An identifier (e.g., a MAC
address) for a corresponding WiFi access point.

'897/3

WiFi access points having a
recorded location that is within a
certain distance of the reference
point. That distance was
previously defined.

'897/3

WiFi access points having a
recorded location that exceeds a
certain distance from the
reference point. That distance
was previously defined.

'245/6

An algorithm that includes taking
a simple average of the calculated
locations of identified Wi-Fi
access points weighted according
to a function of their received
signal strengths.
An algorithm that includes (1)
estimating the distances from the
user device to at least two
identified Wi-Fi access points
using their received signal
strengths and (2) determining a
location based on the estimated
distances.
A position determined by
weighted averaging of position
information.

II.

Disputed Claim Terms
The parties present twelve claim terms, or related groups of claim terms, for construction.

Listed below are the terms to be construed, prioritized in the order of importance, and a joint
claim construction chart, setting out each individual claim term:
1) the “location” terms (including “calculated position information” for the Wi-Fi access
point, “calculated positions of the Wi-Fi access points,” “calculated locations,” and
“recorded location information”);
2) “target area”;
3) “arterial bias” and “avoid(s) arterial bias”;
4) “reference symmetry,” and “wherein the database records for substantially all Wi-Fi
access points in the target area provide reference symmetry within the target area”;
5) “recording multiple readings of the Wi-Fi access point at different locations around the
Wi-Fi access point so that the multiple readings have reference symmetry relative to
other Wi-Fi access points in the target area and so that the calculation of the position of
the Wi-Fi access point avoids arterial bias in the calculated position information” and
“recording multiple readings of the Wi-Fi access point at different locations around the
Wi-Fi access point so that the multiple readings avoid arterial bias in the calculated
position information of the Wi-Fi access point”;
6) “substantially all Wi-Fi access points” and “for substantially all Wi-Fi access points in
the target area”;
7) “said chosen algorithm being suited for the number of identified Wi-Fi access points”;
8) “providing a reference database of calculated locations of Wi-Fi access points in a target
area”;

9) the “logic” terms;
10) “rules” and “predefined rules”;
11) “in response to a user application request to determine a location of a user-device having
a Wi-Fi radio” and “a user-device having a Wi-Fi radio”; and
12) “a WiFi-enabled device communicating with WiFi access points within range of the
WiFi-enabled device so that observed WiFi access points identify themselves.”

Tutorials
Per the Court's December 14, 2010 Order, the parties will present tutorials on the relevant

technology on October 21, 2011. This is 19 days before the claim construction hearing on
November 9, 2011. Skyhook intends to present its tutorial in the form of a Power Point
presentation by Ted Morgan and/or counsel. Google objects to Skyhook’s proposal that Mr.
Morgan—who is Skyhook’s CEO, a co-inventor of each of the patents-in-suit, and a fact witness
in this case—make a presentation at the technology tutorial. Google intends to present its
tutorial in the form of a Power Point presentation by counsel.

IV.

Anticipated Length Of Time For Claim Construction Hearing
Skyhook and Google anticipate the claim construction hearing will last approximately 3

hours.
V.

Witnesses
Neither Skyhook nor Google intends to call any witnesses to testify at the claim

construction hearing. Both parties, however, reserve the right to call a witness if the other
chooses to do so.

VI.

Proposed Order Of Arguments
Skyhook and Google jointly propose the arguments proceed on a term-by-term basis.
