          Application No. 07822,207                                                   



               Appellants’ Claim 9 is reproduced as follows:                          
                    9.   A system of personalized communication between a             
                    post and moving bodies which come into the vicinity of            
                    the post, wherein said system uses an exchange protocol           
                    that begins by means of a signal transmission                     
                    initializer on said post which provides for a                     
                    transmission of an initializing signal from said post,            
                    which said initializing signal is common to the                   
                    different moving bodies that arrive in the vicinity of            
                    the post and said exchange protocol continues by means            
                    of an identification signal transmission means on each            
                    of said moving bodies which provides for the                      
                    transmission of an identification signal by each moving           
                    body which is sent to said post, said transmission of             
                    an identification signal by one first moving body                 
                    occurring at the end of a duration related to a                   
                    duration value of an intrinsic code associated with               
                    said first moving body, said duration beginning in said           
                    moving body from the receipt of the initializing                  
                    signal, said identification signal comprising a data              
                    corresponding to said duration value.
