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.

On February 28, 2018, the Court held a hearing to determine the proper construction of the disputed claim terms in United States Patent No . 6,949,491 (“the ’491 Patent). The Court has considered the arguments made by the Parties at the hearing and in their claim construction briefs. (Dkt. Nos. 84, 93, & 100). The Court has also considered the intrinsic evidence and made subsidiary factual findings about the extrinsic evidence. See Phillips v. AWH Corp., 415 F.3d 1303, 1314 (Fed. Cir. 2005); Teva Pharm. USA, Inc. v. Sandoz, Inc., 135 S. Ct.
