Broadphone tracking patent reexam granted

On June 2, 2023, less than a month after Unified filed an ex parte reexamination, the Central Reexamination Unit (CRU) granted Unified’s request, finding substantial new questions of patentability on the challenged claims of U.S. Patent 8,594,698, owned and asserted by Broadphone LLC. The ‘698 patent generally relates to determining the location of a device based on the relative signal strength for each of a plurality of nearby, identified “antenna stations” and determining whether the device is within the proximity of a “device-specific target location”. The patent has been asserted against Samsung.

Patent Office Proposals Put the American Economy at Risk

,

In an op-ed for RealClearPolicy, Unified’s CEO and Founder, Kevin Jakel, explains how the USPTO’s Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) could put the American economy at risk and limit access to government patent review for all. Many ANPRM proposals aim to restrict petitions for review of invalid patents. This would limit the work done by Unified, other third parties, and companies targeted by NPEs, which will lead to small and medium-sized businesses becoming vulnerable to increased NPE threats.
