Resonant Achieves 125 Patent Milestone; Advances Leadership in RF Innovation
April 17 2017 - 8:30AM
Business Wire
Resonant Inc. (NASDAQ: RESN), a designer of filters for radio
frequency, or RF, front-ends that specializes in delivering designs
for difficult bands and complex requirements, today announced it
has grown its patent portfolio to more than 125 issued and pending
patents covering its Infinite Synthesized Networks (ISN®)
Technology.
The achievement marks a significant milestone in Resonant’s
history and reflects its continued commitment to technological
innovation and development. The milestone also signals an increased
rate of innovation at Resonant after achieving its 50th patent
milestone in January 2015, and 100th patent in July 2016. Two most
recent patents, issued on the same date, March 28th, 2017,
demonstrate the utility of the IP generated by the Resonant
team.
Recent Patent Highlights
- US Patent No.: 9,608,595:
Acoustic wave filters with enhanced rejection
- Increasingly crowded spectrum and the
high transmit powers from the phone, which are required for higher
data-rates need more rejection to prevent interference
- US Patent No.: 9,607,119:
Simulating effect of temperature on acoustic wave filters
- To compensate for filters shifting with
temperature variations, more expensive fabrication processes are
used. Temperature models, as described in this patent, simulate
these effects and enable designs that mitigate some of the
temperature variability so that less expensive processing can be
used
“Our ongoing patent growth reinforces our commitment to our
technology and solidifies our leadership position in RF
innovation,” said George B. Holmes, CEO of Resonant. “Our robust
intellectual property strategy has established a key competitive
advantage for our technologies. IP and patents will continue to be
key cornerstones in how we build our business and remain
competitive into the future. We continue to focus on protecting ISN
technology and providing Resonant licensees with access to our IP
through licensed designs.”
About Resonant Inc.
Resonant is creating software tools and IP & licensable
blocks that enable the development of innovative filter designs for
the RF front-end, or RFFE, for the mobile device industry. The RFFE
is the circuitry in a mobile device responsible for the radio
frequency signal processing and is located between the device’s
antenna and its digital baseband. Filters are a critical component
of the RFFE that selects the desired radio frequency signals and
rejects unwanted signals and noise. For more information, please

About Resonant’s ISN® Technology
Resonant can create designs for difficult bands and complex
requirements that we believe have the potential to be manufactured
for half the cost and developed in half the time of traditional
approaches. The Company’s large suite of proprietary mathematical
methods, software design tools and network synthesis techniques
enable it to explore a much bigger set of possible solutions and
quickly derive the better ones. These improved filters still use
existing manufacturing methods (i.e. surface acoustic wave [SAW]
and/or temperature compensated surface acoustic wave [TC-SAW]) and
can perform as well as those using higher cost methods (i.e. BAW or
FBAR). While most of the industry designs filters using a
coupling-of-modes model, Resonant uses circuit models and physical
models. Circuit models are computationally much faster, and
physical models are highly accurate models based entirely on
fundamental material properties and dimensions. Resonant’s method
delivers excellent predictability, enabling achievement of the
desired product performance in roughly half as many turns through
the fab. In addition, because Resonant’s models are fundamental,
integration with its foundry and fab customers is eased because its
models speak the “fab language” of basic material properties and
dimensions.
Safe Harbor/ Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, which
include the following subjects, among others: the capabilities of
our IP and our plans to make further investments in IP protection.
Forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this document
and are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the
following: our limited operating history; our ability to complete
designs that meet customer specifications; the ability of our
customers (or their manufacturers) to fabricate our designs in
commercial quantities; the ability of our designs to significantly
lower costs compared to other designs and solutions; the risk that
the intense competition and rapid technological change in our
industry renders our designs less useful or obsolete; our ability
to find, recruit and retain the highly skilled personnel required
for our design process in sufficient numbers to support our growth;
our ability to manage growth; our ability to invest resources in IP
protection and enforcement; and general market, economic and
business conditions. Additional factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those anticipated by our
forward-looking statements are under the captions “Risk Factors”
and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report (Form
10-K) or Quarterly Report (Form 10-Q) filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are made as of the
date of this release, and we expressly disclaim any obligation or
undertaking to update forward-looking statements.
