The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA .
Response to Remarks
This communication is considered fully responsive to the amendment filed on 12/22/2025.
Claims 1, 5-9, 11, 13-18 are pending and are examined in this office action.
Claims 1, 9, 16, 18 has been amended.
No new claim has been added and claims 2-4, 10-12, 19 has been canceled.
Response to Arguments
Applicant’s arguments, filed on 12/22/2025, with respect to claims have been considered but are moot because the arguments do not apply to any of the references being used in the current rejection. The Examiner found features modified to claims, i.e claim 1 as
“1. (Currently Amended) A wireless communication method for use in a wireless terminal, the method comprising :
receiving, from a wireless network node, a measurement configuration including a beam indication; and
receiving at least one reference signal based on the beam indication of the measurement configuration, wherein the measurement configuration comprises:
at least one physical cell indication associated with the beam indication; and
a plurality of periodicities associated with a plurality of physical cells, wherein each of the plurality of periodicities is corresponding to one of the plurality of cells wherein the at least one reference signal of each of the plurality of physical cells is received by the wireless terminal based on the corresponding periodicity, and
wherein the at least one reference signal is received by using the beam indication in the plurality of physical cells corresponding to the at least one physical cell indication.”
that have changed the scope of the invention, Therefore, Applicant’s remarks regarding rejection under 35 U.S.C 103 for the claims are moot. Applicant's remarks are considered as forward looking statement for the newly reconstructed claims.
In view of the applicant’s amendment to the claims, the examiner has clarified and remapped the rejection to the argued claim limitations in details, using the prior art of record in the current prosecution of the claims as well a new prior art. See YANG et al. (US 20230188281 A1; hereinafter as “YANG”).
Regarding all dependent claims: the applicant alleges that all dependent claims are allowable since they depend from all the independent claims above. The examiner respectfully disagrees in view of the above explanation of independent claims.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112(b):
(b) CONCLUSION.—The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor regards as the invention.
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA ), second paragraph:
The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his invention.
Claims 1, 5-9, 11, 13-18 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(b) or 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA ), second paragraph, as being indefinite for failing to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor, or for pre-AIA the applicant regards as the invention.
Regarding claim 1, 9, 16, 18 , which draws to (all emphases below added by examiner)
“…...a plurality of periodicities associated with (1) a plurality of physical cells, wherein each of the plurality of periodicities is corresponding to one of (2) the plurality of cells wherein the at least one reference signal of each of the plurality of physical cells is received by the wireless terminal based on (3) the corresponding periodicity, ….”.
There are two indefiniteness issues for this part of the claim :
- regarding (1) “the plurality of cells” (line 10 in claim 1) above, it appears to have inadequate antecedent basis, as it’s unclear whether it refers back to (1) “a plurality of physical cells” (Line 9) or something else. . Under Broadest Reasonable Interpretation (BRI) and in the context of the whole claim, the examiner believes Line 10 refers to Line 0, thus recommend to change Line 10 to “the plurality of physical cells”.
(2) regarding “the corresponding periodicity,” [(Lines 12]), it appears to have inadequate antecedent basis, as it’s unclear what is refers back to as “a corresponding periodicity” . The examiner will interpret as best understood by the examiner.
Regarding all dependent claims: the applicant alleges that all dependent claims are allowable since they depend from all the independent claims above. The examiner respectfully disagrees in view of the above explanation of independent claims. Thus the rejection is deemed proper.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103 which forms the basis for all obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action:
A patent for a claimed invention may not be obtained, notwithstanding that the claimed invention is not identically disclosed as set forth in section 102, if the differences between the claimed invention and the prior art are such that the claimed invention as a whole would have been obvious before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the claimed invention pertains. Patentability shall not be negated by the manner in which the invention was made.
Claims 1, 5-9, 11, 13-18 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over YU et al. (US 20190037426 A1; hereinafter as “YU”) in view of YANG et al. (US 20230188281 A1; hereinafter as “YANG”).

The UE measurement procedure is determined based on the beam management configuration and whether or not a beam indication index signaling is received explicitly. The set of UE beams is determined based whether or not the beam indication index signaling is received explicitly. In one example, the beam indication index signaling comprises one or more beam indication index(es) indicating one or more beam pair links to be used as spatial filtering reference for subsequent beam measurements. The mapping table provides corresponding RS resources of the one or more beam indication index(es). ”: [0035]);

Therefore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify the teaching of YU to include the above recited limitations as taught by YANG. The suggestion/motivation would be to ensure implementing beam management techniques on the UE side and on the network side for better cell handover : (YANG: [0003]).

With respect to dependence claim:
Regarding claim 5, YU in view of YANG teaches the invention of claim 1 as set forth above. Further, YU teaches, The wireless communication method of claim 1, wherein the measurement configuration is received in at least one of a system information block, an information element in a higher layer signaling or a narrowband internet-of-things system information block ( “FIG. 4 illustrates a sequence flow of a beam management procedure with beam indication to facilitate UE measurements. BS 401 is directionally configured with multiple cells, and each cell is covered by a set of TX/RX control beams. Initially, UE 402 performs scanning, beam selection, and synchronization with BS 401 using the control beams, which include pre-defined or pre-configured sequences for UE to identify its existence. In step 411, BS 401 and UE 402 establish a data connection over a trained dedicated data beam based on a beam training operation (e.g., after performing synchronization, random access, and RRC connection establishment). In step 421, BS 401 provides beam management configuration to UE 402, e.g., via radio resource control (RRC) signaling. The beam management configuration comprises CSI-RS resource configuration, and a mapping table between network TX beams and RS resources, etc. In step 431, BS 401 performs beam management procedure based on the RRC configuration and transmits downlink reference signals to UE 402 using the configured RS resource and over the same or different TX beams ”: [0028]).
Regarding claim 6, YU in view of YANG teaches the invention of claim 1 as set forth above. Further, YU teaches, teaches, The wireless communication method of claim 1, wherein the beam indication comprises at least one of a beam index, a synchronization signal block index, a bandwidth part index, a channel state information reference signal index, a narrow-band internet-of-things system information block index, an anchor carrier index, a non- anchor carrier index or a cell reference signal index (see fig. 4: Fig. 6: Beam Index : [abstract]; BS “provides beam indication index to UE 102 via MAC-CE or DCI. ”: [0022]; [0028]-[0029]; “ FIG. 6 illustrates examples of beam indication indexes and its relationship with RS resources. In general, beam indication indexes are mapped to RS resource sets, which are configured for beam management procedures via RRC signaling. The beam indication index provides spatial quasi-co-location (QCL) information. From UE perspective, the beam indication index informs UE to relate its reception with a previous measurement or report experience. For example, the beam indication index can be used to associate corresponding RS transmission with a previous measurement or used to associate corresponding RS measurement with a previous report. From NW perspective, the beam indication index relates a NW transmission with a previous NW transmission experience. A beam indication index value is a shortened representation of RS resource indication in UE's measurement report. The beam indication index assures an anchoring behavior in a way that if UE can receive a previous transmission indicated by the beam indication index, then UE can assume the same receiving method for new transmission associated with the beam indication index. ”: [0031]).

Therefore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify the teaching of YU to include the above recited limitations as taught by YANG. The suggestion/motivation would be to ensure communication quality of the millimetric wave: (YANG; [0003]).
Regarding claim 8, YU in view of YANG teaches the invention of claim 1 as set forth above. Further, YU teaches, the invention of claim 7 as set forth above. Further, YU teaches The wireless communication method of claim 7, further comprising: transmitting, to the wireless network node, at least one measurement result of measuring the at least one reference signal (see fig. 4 element 432, 441, : BEAM MEASUREMENT and BEAM REPORTING to BS “UE 402 performs corresponding measurements on the transmissions for its RSRP and/or CSI metric (step 432). In step 441, UE 402 transmits beam report to BS 401. ”: [0028] ).
