Apple Inc. and Broadcom Inc. will get a new trial on damages in an infringement case over Caltech patents on Wi-Fi technology, after a U.S. appeals court vacated a $1.1-billion verdict the school won in 2020.
Having traveled the difficult road of coming to terms with racism in its own past, Caltech on Friday said it would remove the names of Robert A. Millikan and five other important figures in its history from campus.The case was remanded to a court in Los Angeles for a new trial on infringement of one patent and to determine how much Broadcom and Apple should pay.
“This is recognition of Caltech’s inventions in the field of data communications, which are now widely used in Wi-Fi products because they significantly improve the quality, bandwidth, and range of wireless data transmission,” the school said in a statement Friday. “We are confident that the value of the patents will be fully recognized at the damages retrial.
“The mere fact that Broadcom and Apple are separate infringers alone does not support treating the same chips differently at different stages in the supply chain and does not justify submitting such a two-tier damage theory to the jury,” the Federal Circuit ruled. In an unrelated case involving patent claims against Apple, a different three-judge Federal Circuit panel ordered a new trial on damages in an $85.23-million verdict won by Quarterhill Inc.’s Wi-Lan over a way to allocate bandwidth in wireless communications.
