From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Barkan Wireless Access Technologies, L.P. appeals the district court’s construction of the term “Access Point,” under which Appellee Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless concededly does not infringe the asserted claims. We determine that the district court erred by concluding that th e patents expressly define “ Access Point,” but we nevertheless affirm the district court’s ultimate decision.
