signal as well as said first spectral portion of said luminance
signal;” a third portion of the frequency spectrum is comprised
of “lower frequencies of said composite video signal;” and a
second portion of the frequency spectrum is “intermediate to said
first and third portions of said frequency spectrum.”
The 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) rejection of claims 8 through 10 and
14 is reversed because Figures 4(A) and 10(A) of Ishikawa do not
illustrate first, second and third frequency bands that are
“contiguous frequency bands overlapping only at the edges of said
first and second frequency bands and at the edges of said second
and third frequency bands,” and with “said first frequency band
containing higher frequencies than said second frequency band,
and said third frequency band containing lower frequencies than
said second frequency band.” Figure 2 of appellant’s drawing
illustrates the claimed “overlapping” of the first, second and
third frequency bands.
The 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) rejection of claims 22 through 26 is
reversed because the frequency spectrums in Figures 4(A) and
10(A) of Ishikawa do not show first, second and third portions in
which: the first portion is comprised of “just a region about
said chroma carrier;” the third portion is comprised of “lower
frequencies of said composite video signal;” and the second
