1
patents, you don't know what it feels like to have a
2
patent infringed, correct?
3
A.
I've handled cases for about equally for
4
plaintiffs and for defendants, so I have argued both
5
sides equally.
6
Q.
Yeah, but my question was a little different,
7
Dr. Akl.
8
it feels.
9
how it feels to have somebody infringe that patent,
10
11
The question is, you personally don't know how
If you don't have a patent, you can't know
correct?
A.
No, but if someone is using my research, say,
12
without permission, that would hurt.
13
understand it from that point of view.
14
15
Q.
make.
So I can
And actually, you go to a point I wanted to
You're a professor, right?
16
A.
Yes.
17
Q.
And you would not tolerate a student who turns
18
in work that was the work of another student, would you,
19
Doctor?
20
A.
No.
21
Q.
Yeah.
22
It's called plagiarism.
We all know from kindergarten and first
grade at least that that's wrong?
23
A.
Yes.
24
Q.
I appreciate Mr. Bader's efforts to keep this
25
short and your efforts to keep this short, and I will
31
1
try and keep it short, too.
2
things, though.
3
4
I do want to cover a few
Is it -- is it -- now, you heard Dr. Wicker
and Dr. Olivier testify, correct?
5
A.
Yes.
6
Q.
You were here for all that, right?
7
A.
Yes.
8
Q.
And so it's -- it's fair to say that with
9
respect to the HTC handsets, your opinions with respect
10
to non-infringement that you've offered to the jury are
11
essentially the same as Dr. Olivier's, correct?
12
A.
Yes.
13
Q.
Although he offered them for Sony Mobile and
14
you offered them for HTC, right?
15
A.
Correct.
16
Q.
All right.
And so you would agree with
17
Dr. Olivier and Dr. Wicker, for example, that the
18
orthogonal code generator and the overlay code generator
19
can be the same piece of hardware and software, correct?
20
A.
They may.
21
Q.
And the decoders on the receiver side, you can
22
have a first decoder and a second decoder that use the
23
same hardware and software, correct?
24
A.
It may happen.
Correct.
25
Q.
And you can apply an orthogonal code and then
32
1
you can apply the overlay code in that order, right?
2
A.
Yes.
3
Q.
Within the claims?
4
A.
Yes.
5
Q.
And -- and at the same time, the claims cover
6
when you apply the overlay code and then the orthogonal
7
code in that order, right?
8
9
A.
Yes.
The only reluctance is the overlay code
has to subdivide an orthogonal channel.
So you need a
10
channel there to subdivide it.
11
first thing overlay, it wouldn't make as much sense, but
12
you would have to switch the labels in a sense.
13
14
15
16
17
18
Q.
Right.
So if you're calling the
But, Doctor, my question really was
only about generating the codes.
A.
On, generating.
the codes in any order.
Q.
All right.
Oh, yes.
You can generate
Yes.
And you can generate them at
exactly the same time, correct?
19
A.
Yes, as long as you still have two codes.
20
Q.
All right.
21
And we've heard lots and lots and
lots about how important the claims are.
22
A.
Yeah.
23
Q.
And you agree the claims are important?
24
A.
Yes.
25
Q.
Very important?
33
1
A.
Yes.
2
Q.
All right.
And you agree that it would be
3
improper to determine infringement by comparing the
4
products, the accused products, in your case, the HTC
5
phones, to the figures in the patent; isn't that right?
6
7
A.
example.
8
Correct.
We -- we -- we use the figures as an
We don't compare it to the figures.
Q.
You compare the products to the claim, right,
10
A.
Yes.
11
Q.
And you compare the claims to the products,
9
sir?
The claims define the boundary.
12
not to the description in the specification of the '211
13
patent, correct?
14
A.
Correct.
15
Q.
And you compare the products to the claims and
16
not to the tables in the patent; isn't that right?
17
A.
Correct.
18
Q.
And you're familiar with pseudorandom noise
19
codes, aren't you?
20
A.
Yes, PN codes.
21
Q.
And PN codes, are they orthogonal codes?
22
A.
I've heard the deposition today, and it's
23
interesting, because I always say if you look at a
24
version of a PN code, a small code, normally PN codes
25
are not orthogonal.
But in the limits, when you take
