US Patent 12095149

• Title: Multiple-body-configuration multimedia and smartphone multifunction wireless devices
• Assignee: Fractus SA
• Inventors: Carles Puente Baliarda, Josep Mumbru, Jordi Ilario
• Filing Date: 2023-06-22
• Issue Date: 2024-09-17

Abstract:
A multi-body-configuration multifunction wireless device (MFWD) is described, featuring an upper body and a lower body designed for relative movement (clamshell, slide, or twist). The device includes an antenna system located in one or both bodies. This antenna system's shape has a complexity level defined by two factors: F21, which is between 1.05 and 1.80, and F32, which is between 1.10 and 1.90.

Plain-Language Overview of Independent Claims:

• Independent Claim 1: This claim describes a multifunction wireless device (MFWD) that has multimedia and/or smartphone capabilities. It includes an upper and a lower body designed to move relative to each other (like in a flip, slide, or twist phone). Crucially, it also features an antenna system located in either the upper or lower body. The shape of this antenna system is defined by a "level of complexity of an antenna contour" which has specific ranges for two complexity factors: F21 (between 1.05 and 1.80, inclusive) and F32 (between 1.10 and 1.90, inclusive).

• Independent Claim 21: This claim describes a multifunction wireless device (MFWD) with multimedia and/or smartphone capabilities, specifically highlighting its advanced computing functions. It includes a microprocessor and an operating system capable of running office software (word-processing, spreadsheet, slide applications) and at least 1 GB of memory coupled to the microprocessor. Similar to Claim 1, this MFWD also includes an antenna system with a shape defined by the same complexity factors: F21 (between 1.05 and 1.80, inclusive) and F32 (between 1.10 and 1.90, inclusive).

• Independent Claim 22: This claim also describes a multifunction wireless device (MFWD) with multimedia and/or smartphone capabilities, focusing on its media features. It includes a receiver for audio signals (analog or digital), an image recording system (with at least a 2-megapixel image sensor, and/or a flash, optical zoom, or digital zoom), and data storage with a capacity of at least 1 GB. Again, this MFWD incorporates an antenna system whose contour complexity is defined by F21 (between 1.05 and 1.80, inclusive) and F32 (between 1.10 and 1.90, inclusive).

CAFC 2026 Dockets:
As of April 26, 2026, direct searches of the CAFC 2026 dockets did not reveal active cases specifically listing patent US12095149. However, the Google Patents page for US12095149B2 indicates that the patent family has ongoing litigation. This includes:

• A PTAB case, PGR2025-00056, which was filed but not instituted on the merits.
• Two US district court cases filed in the Texas Eastern District Court (case numbers 2:24-cv-01009 and 2:24-cv-01008).
  These lower court and administrative actions could potentially lead to appeals at the CAFC in the future, but no such appeals are currently listed in the CAFC scheduled cases for 2026.
