Response to Arguments
Applicant’s arguments, filed 07/22/2026, have been fully considered and are persuasive. Therefore, the rejection has been withdrawn. However, upon further consideration, a new ground(s) of rejection is made in view of Li et al. (CSI-based Vehicle target recognition and Collaborative CNN with Data-Importance-Aware [NPL] hereinafter Li) in view of Singh et al. (US 20230316086 hereinafter Singh) and further in view of Pogorelik et al. (US 20210319098 hereinafter Pogorelik).
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
In the event the determination of the status of the application as subject to AIA 35 U.S.C. 102 and 103 (or as subject to pre-AIA 35 U.S.C. 102 and 103) is incorrect, any correction of the statutory basis for the rejection will not be considered a new ground of rejection if the prior art relied upon, and the rationale supporting the rejection, would be the same under either status.
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.
Claim(s) 1-8, 12-13, 15-23, 26-27, 29-32 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Li et al. (CSI-based Vehicle target recognition and Collaborative CNN with Data-Importance-Aware [NPL] hereinafter Li) in view of Singh et al. (US 20230316086 hereinafter Singh) and further in view of Pogorelik et al. (US 20210319098 hereinafter Pogorelik).
Regarding claim 1, Li teaches A wireless communication device for wireless communication, comprising (p.2069 “Ubiquitous wireless access of vehicles can be realized through installing wireless communication devices on roadsides, and vehicles”): one or more memories; and one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories (p.2070 “the distributed edge computing architecture by processing the micro Doppler characteristics of the target”), configured to cause the wireless communication device to:
transmit an indication of micro-Doppler measurements associated with a first artificial intelligence or machine learning (AI/ML) model (fig 2),
transmit, in connection with using the second AI/ML model, an indication associated with object recognition (Abstract “A distributed collaborative machine learning method of DIA is proposed to realize the target recognition of the vehicle”; p.2069 “We propose a cooperative machine learning method with DIA, which can recognize different road traffic participants (vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles) in the distributed edge computing architecture by processing the micro Doppler characteristics of the target.”).
Li does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Singh teaches a second AI/ML model that is an update of the first AI/ML model (Abstract “The electronic device updates the trained first machine learning model, based on the application of the transformation function. The update of the trained first machine learning model corresponds to an unlearning of at least one of the received data subset or a set of features associated with the second machine learning model.”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Singh with the teachings of Li. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Singh 0045). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Singh merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular ML features. Since both Singh and Li disclose similar ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
The cited prior art does not explicitly teach the remaining strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Pogorelik teaches the indication of the micro-Doppler measurement comprising an output of the first AI/ML model as the indication of the micro-Doppler measurements (0477 “Example 4. An apparatus, comprising: circuitry; and memory coupled to the circuitry, the memory storing instructions, which when executed by the circuitry cause the circuitry to: receive input data from an input device; generate output data based in part on executing an inference model with the input data” [Li already teaches using micro-Doppler data, thus the general ‘data’ in Pogorelik corresponds to micro-Doppler data or any form of digital signal data]);
receive, in association with transmitting the indication of the micro-Doppler measurements (0477 “determine whether the output data comprises an indication of the hidden class; and provide the generated output to an output consumer based on a determination that the output data does not comprise an indication of the hidden class.”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Pogorelik with the teachings of the cited prior art. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Pogorelik 0084). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Pogorelik merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular ML features. Since both the cited prior art and Pogorelik disclose similar ML models using data processing and edge devices, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 2, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1, wherein the first AI/ML model is associated with object recognition (Li Abstract “a micro Doppler feature data set. A distributed collaborative machine learning method of DIA is proposed to realize the target recognition of the vehicle”).
Regarding claim 3, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1,
Li does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Singh teaches the object recognition is based at least in part on updated micro-Doppler measurements that are updated relative to the micro-Doppler measurements based at least in part on a format for input to the second AI/ML model (Singh 0027 “The parameters of the ML model may be tuned and weights may be updated so as to move towards a global minimum of a cost function for the ML model. After several epochs of the training on feature information in the training dataset, the ML model may be trained to output a prediction/classification result for a set of inputs. The prediction result may be indicative of a class label for each input of the set of inputs (e.g., input features extracted from new/unseen instances).”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Singh with the teachings of Li. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Singh 0045). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Singh merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular ML features. Since both Singh and Li disclose similar ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 4, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1,
Li does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Singh teaches wherein the indication of the second AI/ML model comprises one or more of: an indication of one or more of an input format or an output format, an indication of weights applicable to nodes of the second AI/ML model, an indication of one or more layers to add to the second AI/ML model (Singh 0027 “Each ML model of the first ML model 110 and the second ML model 112 may be defined by its hyper-parameters, for example, number of weights, cost function, input size, number of layers, and the like. The parameters of the ML model may be tuned and weights may be updated so as to move towards a global minimum of a cost function for the ML model.”), an indication of one or more parameters of the one or more layers to add, an indication of an update to a convolution kernel, an indication of a pooling operation, or an indication of an activation function.
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Singh with the teachings of Li. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Singh 0045). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Singh merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular ML features. Since both Singh and Li disclose similar ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 5, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1, wherein the indication associated with the object recognition comprises one or more of: an indication of a recognized object, an indication of measurements associated with the second AI/ML model, or an indication of a substructure of the second AI/ML model (Li Abstract “Experimental results show that the vehicle recognition accuracy of the proposed method is higher than 95%, and the convergence speed of the machine learning model is improve”).

However, in a related field of endeavor, Singh teaches wherein the indication of the update to the first AI/ML model comprises one or more of: an update to the substructure, or an indication of a position of the substructure within the first AI/ML model (Singh 0027 “Each ML model of the first ML model 110 and the second ML model 112 may be defined by its hyper-parameters, for example, number of weights, cost function, input size, number of layers, and the like. The parameters of the ML model may be tuned and weights may be updated so as to move towards a global minimum of a cost function for the ML model.” [corresponds to an update to the substructure]).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Singh with the teachings of Li. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Singh 0045). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination.

The DIA algorithm we proposed is based on two fundamental concepts for weight calculation. (1) Variability. If the parameters of the uploaded model fluctuate more, the faster the model converges and the greater the importance of the data”), an indication of a request for further sensing in association with an output of the first AI/ML model or the second AI/ML model.

Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Singh with the teachings of Li. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the ML model (Singh 0045). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Singh merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular ML features. Since both Singh and Li disclose similar ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 32, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1, wherein the micro-Doppler measurements comprise an indication of a recognized object (Li 2075 “First, we constructed a micro-Doppler data set of road targets”).
Claim(s) 9 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Li et al. (CSI-based Vehicle target recognition and Collaborative CNN with Data-Importance-Aware [NPL] hereinafter Li) in view of Singh et al.

(US-20220398766 hereinafter Ishii).
Regarding claim 9, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1,
The combination does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Ishii teaches wherein the one or more processors are further configured to cause the wireless communication device to: identify a recognized object in association with an output of the second AI/ML model (Abstract “a machine learning model that performs a deblurring process of an input image and outputs a feature quantity and a second model which is a machine learning model that performs an object recognition process of the input image and outputs a result of the object recognition are connected so that an output of the first model becomes an input of the second model;”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Ishii with the cited prior art. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the recognition accuracy (Ishii 0004). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc.

(US 20250261163 hereinafter Tian).
Regarding claim 10, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 1,
The combination does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Tian teaches wherein the one or more processors are further configured to cause the wireless communication device to: transmit an indication of a third AI/ML model, the third AI/ML model being an update to the second AI/ML model, in association with local model training at the wireless communication device (0017 “The first network element determines, based on the measurement result of the first parameter and the correspondence, that a second-type AI model used for positioning is to be switched or updated from a third AI model to a fourth AI model, where the channel measurement result is an input of a first-type AI model used for positioning, the assisted positioning information is an output of the first-type AI model, the first-type AI model is switched or updated from a first AI model corresponding to the third AI model to a second AI model corresponding to the fourth AI model”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Tian with the cited prior art. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the AI model (Tian Abstract). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Tian merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular AI features. Since both the cited prior art and Tian disclose similar AI/ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 11, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 10, wherein the indication of the third AI/ML model comprises: an indication of one or more parameters of the third AI/ML model (Tian 0004 “This application provides a communication method and a communication apparatus, to determine, based on a channel measurement result, whether to switch or update an AI model used for positioning, to improve positioning precision of the AI model.”), the third AI/ML model being associated with an identified object or one or more parameters of the identified object (Li 2070 “The framework of the proposed vehicle target recognition and vehicle speed measurement system is shown in Fig.2.”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Tian with the cited prior art. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve the AI model (Tian Abstract). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Tian merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular AI features. Since both the cited prior art and Tian disclose similar AI/ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
Regarding claim 24, claim 24 recites substantially the same limitations as claim 10 and therefore rejected for substantially the same reasons as claim 10.
Claim(s) 14 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Li et al.

(US 20250056111 hereinafter Fincannon).
Regarding claim 14, the cited prior art teaches The wireless communication device of claim 13,
The combination does not explicitly teach the strikethrough limitations. However, in a related field of endeavor, Fincannon teaches wherein the indication of the update to the first AI/ML model comprises an amount of updating that is associated with the confidence of the first AI/ML model for object recognition (Abstract “determining a set of external factors based on the image and/or information from a second sensor, linking the set of imaging parameters and the set of external factors to the object recognition confidence score, and training a predictive model for updating the set of imaging parameters using the object recognition confidence score, the set of imaging parameters, and the set of external factors.”).
Furthermore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art, at the time of filing of the instant application, to include the teachings of Fincannon with the cited prior art. One would have been motivated to do so in order to advantageously improve object recognition (Fincannon 0046). Further still, the Supreme Court in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. (KSR), 550 U.S. 398, 82 USPQ2d 1385 (2007) provides that combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results may render a claimed invention obvious over such combination. Here, Fincannon merely teaches that it is well-known to incorporate the particular AI features. Since both the cited prior art and Fincannon disclose similar AI/ML models using data processing, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the combination of elements here has previously been executed according to known methods, thereby evidencing that such combination would yield predictable results.
