TECHNOLOGY / IN DEPTH

Communications & System Technologies

We examine device and network interactions, including message structures, resource allocation, synchronization and error control, to identify the technical features relevant to patent protection.

WHAT WE REVIEW

Key technical and IP issues

  1. 01

    Define device roles and message sequences to describe the technical structure.

  2. 02

    Connect bandwidth, latency and reliability objectives with the relevant controls.

  3. 03

    Separate publicly documented standard features from independently developed elements.

Information to support the initial review

  • Network architecture and sequence diagrams
  • Protocol, message and control descriptions
  • Standards references and performance comparisons

You can begin a discussion before all the documents are available. Your development stage and planned disclosures help us establish priorities and agree the scope of work.

Turning technical analysis into an IP plan

Our technical analysis guides prior art searches, filing strategy, prosecution and rights analysis. We agree the scope, deliverables and timetable for each engagement.

Put your IP strategy into practice.
