                Appeal 2006-2252                                                                                
                Application 10/397,012                                                                          
                the GPS receivers are L-band receivers, neither claim 14 nor claim 28 recite                    
                L-band receivers.  We will also sustain the rejection as it is directed to                      
                claims 2 to 4, 6 to 8, 10, 11, 14 to 19, 21 to 26, and 28 to 31 because the                     
                Appellants have not argued the separate patentability of these claims with                      
                any specificity.  37 C.F.R. 41.37(c)(vii).                                                      
                       We will not sustain this rejection as it is directed to claims 5, 9, 12,                 
                13, 20, and 27 because Brodie does not disclose that the satellite’s own                        
                navigation signal can be cancelled by the GPS receiver’s signal processor.                      
                       We will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claims 1 to 3, 6, 7, 10,                 
                14 to 16, 18, 19, 21 to 23, 25, and 26 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) as being                        
                anticipated by Murphy because Murphy does not disclose a GPS system.                            
                We will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claims 5, 9, 20, and 27 under                   
                25 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Murphy in view of Green for the                      
                same reason.                                                                                    
                       We will sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claims 4, 8, 11 to 13, 17,                   
                24, and 28 to 31 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over the                           
                combined teachings of Murphy and Brodie and the rejection of claims 4, 8,                       
                11 to 13, 17, 24, and 28 to 31 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable                      
                over the combined teachings of Green and Brodie because it is our view that                     



                                                       7
