Appeal No. 2000-2080
Application 09/287,226
The present invention is directed to a bitstream syntax
comprising groups of consecutive bits (specification, page 30,
line 14 through page 31, line 12). In general, error concealment
is provided in motion-compensated digital video coding by use of
inserted resynchronization bit patterns in a coded video
bitstream (specification, pages 29-32).
Independent claim 2 is as follows:
2. A motion-compensated video bitstream syntax, comprising:
(a) a first group of consecutive bits in a bitstream, said
first group encoding at least two motion vectors;
(b) a second group of consecutive bits following said first
group of bits in said bitstream, said second group of bits
forming a resynchronization word; and
(c) a third group of consecutive bits following said second
group, said third group encoding texture data associated with
said motion vectors.
The Examiner does not rely on any references.
Claims 2-3 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 101 as
being directed to non-statutory subject matter.
Rather than reiterate the arguments of Appellants
and the Examiner, reference is made to the brief1 and
