Appeal No. 96-0309
Application 08/135,370
to a juxtaposition circuit 5 having a single output; absent
explanation in the specification, it is assumed that the
output represents the same data modulated by carrier
frequencies F1 and F2. There seems to be something missing in
the description of the operation of juxtaposition circuit 5
and switch 7 whether the information is transmitted
consecutively or simultaneously. Since the information
content is transmitted only once, the output from modulator 1
or the output from modulator 2 must be alternatingly selected
unless something undisclosed is happening in the juxtaposition
circuit 5 to produce different data from modulator 1 and
modulator 2. The specification says that the "control circuit
AMRT, denoted by the references MAMRT and BAMRT, respectively,
control the various accesses to the time slots of the
multiplex signal for transmission as well as for reception
. . ." (specification, page 3, lines 20-22) and that signals
are supplied "in the correct time slot of the TDMA links as
represented by a switch 7 which is controlled by the circuit
MAMRT" (specification, page 5, lines 4-5), which implies that
switch 7 under control of circuit MAMRT is responsible for
putting the information in the correct time slots of the
