          Appeal No. 95-4207                                                          
          Application 08/073,442                                                      



          synchronization among a plurality of locations, Noreen does                 
          not teach of utilizing the time synchronization capability of               
          such satellites.  On the other hand, Noreen only utilizes a                 
          GPS system for location and position determining capabilities               
          of the remote, mobile user terminals 107 and 109.                           
               Overall then, since we cannot agree with the examiner’s                
          position that independent claims 1 and 19 are anticipated by                
          Noreen and that claims 10 and 11 would have been obvious over               
          this reference, we reverse the rejection of the remaining,                  
          dependent claims listed in each separately stated rejection by              
          the examiner.  Since Pommier and Kotzin do not respectively                 
          cure the deficiencies already noted in Noreen, the                          
          respectively stated                                                         













                                          8
