 At best, the Examiner has identified "determining a width" and "determining a virtual channel" as separate concepts in the prior art reference, but has not provided a rationale to combine these concepts as required by the claim. See Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling, Inc. v. Maersk Contractors USA, Inc., 617 F.3d 1296, 1303-04 (Fed. Cir. 2010) ("[I]t is not enough to simply show that the [prior art] references disclose the claim limitations.").
