At the outset, we note that:
[ t ]wo separate tests define the scope of analogous prior art: (1) whether the art is from the same field of endeavor, regardless of the problem addressed and, (2) if the reference is not within the field of the inventor's endeavor, whether the reference still is reasonably pertinent to the particular problem with which the inventor is involved.
In re Bigio, 381 F.3d 1320, 1325 (Fed. Cir. 2004) (citations omitted). As for the first test, "[ t ]h[ e field of endeavor] test for analogous art requires the PTO to determine the appropriate field of endeavor by reference to explanations of the invention's subject matter in the patent application, including the embodiments, function, and structure of the claimed invention." Bigio at 1325-26 (emphasis added). As for the second test, "a reference is reasonably pertinent if, ... it is one which, because of the matter with which it deals, logically would have commended itself to an inventor's attention in considering his problem." In re Clay, 966 F.2d 656, 659 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
