"It is common knowledge among the computer community that wifi only covers a certain maximum distance and in fact the FCC has requirements regarding these technologies and they are widely known."

So, the way the patent was written... is not limiting in scope, but is a way of stating that it applies to "any device that is allowed to be used".

The whole distance calculation thing is solidly fixed as a preset requirement... in any device that is allowed to be used ? Who'd a thunk it. If you haven't done the calculation... then you can't get FCC approval for use of your device. So, T-Mobile's claim they're "not doing distance calculations" would mean... ???

LOL!!!

CLYW owns the seminal patent awarded in this area. It isn't supposed to be interpreted narrowly. And, because of the way it is written, even if you wanted to narrow it inappropriately, defending it requires properly addressing the full breadth and scope of the argument based on those fundamental facts... and the language that was used.

I thought we'd pretty well beaten that horse to death already.

Apparently, CLYW is fully aware that they didn't patent "how to use your cell phone to measure distance"... but, seamless switching in the exact case of "every device that can be used."

So, maybe useful to consider that in context while noting that "a range" is not "a fixed point"... ?
