SmartSky Prevails in Gogo Patent Challenge
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Offices declined to review Gogo's challenge against a patent covering key aspects of SmartSky's ATG network.

SmartSky Networks, which is hoping to launch its air-to-ground (ATG) network service next year, prevailed in a patent challenge brought on by aviation connectivity specialist Gogo. Gogo filed the challenge before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) against a patent that SmartSky said covers some of its most essential features of its ATG network, including beamforming and seamless cell tower handoffs.
