Client  Challenge 

Our client, a prominent patent licensing company, faced a challenge with multiple patents mapped for infringement on Wi-Fi 6. Previous attempts by their tech teams failed to achieve successful mapping. They needed a strong technical team that could effectively map the patent claims to another technical application area, specifically in 5G, to increase the value of their patents significantly.

What Lumenci Offered

Understanding the client's requirements, Lumenci provided potential mappings on adaptive Forward Error Correction technology within the 5G domain. This involved an in-depth study spanning over 50 pages and ten sub-sections, analyzing five different technical specification documents related to 5G NR. In addition, our telecom specialist combined a deep understanding of 5G with out-of-the-box thinking which proved instrumental in this process.

Creative Approach and Technical Expertise 

The mapping process was far from straightforward or obvious. Our team creatively interpreted the claim limitation by identifying indicators of the buffer size state rather than directly reading the data, utilizing the concept of the New Data Indicator (NDI) in CBG-based transmission. This required a comprehensive understanding of 5G and innovative thinking to achieve a successful mapping.

Utilization of Lumenci's Work 

The client found Lumenci's technical work to be highly resourceful throughout the entire matter. We were the first technical team capable of solving this complex mapping challenge within the intricate and emerging 5G field, compliant with 3GPP standard specifications. The client used our technical analysis and claim charts to showcase the quality and impact of their patent portfolio, facilitating their licensing and sale-related discussions.

Positive Outcome for the Client

As a result of our work, the client now has the advantage of multiple options for infringement readings for the patent. It successfully maps to two prominent standards: Wi-Fi 6 and 5G, significantly enhancing the value of the patent and enabling more effective monetization opportunities.

Clients Experience

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lumenci, and I their technical patent support was absolutely outstanding. We are monetizing a networking based patent portfolio, and Lumenci's expertise and guidance were crucial to our success. They helped us to identify the most promising infringement reads, provided valuable insight into the patent landscape, and were always available to answer our questions and offer advice.

Overall, I would highly recommend Lumenci to anyone looking for top-notch technical patent support in the patent monetization space. They are an incredibly talented and dedicated team, and their contributions were absolutely critical to our success.
