Detailed Summary

In the IPR2025‑00637 petition, OnePlus Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. seeks inter‑ partes review of claims 1‑13 of U.S. Patent 9,763,283 owned by Pantech Corporation. The petitioner contends that the claimed radio‑link failure handling methods, especially the limitation requiring the user equipment to stop uplink transmission of PUSCH, PUCCH, and SRS to a secondary serving cell, are fully disclosed or suggested by three prior‑art references: US10,631,222 (Dudda), WO2014/110813 (Lin), and US2011/0134774 (Pelletier). The petition argues that a person of ordinary skill would be motivated to combine these teachings, rendering the claims obvious, and that discretionary denial under §§ 314(a) and 325(d) does not apply. The filing requests institution of the IPR and cancellation of the challenged claims.
