          Appeal No. 96-3618                                                          
          Application 08/004,598                                                      

               Kinoshita discloses a portable radio telephone system                  
          which "can be used both for an urban public cellular radio                  
          telephone system and for a private radio telephone system                   
          which is built inside a local area" (col. 1, lines 46-48).                  
          The private radio telephone system attached to the private                  
          branch exchange (PBX) in figure 3 corresponds to the claimed                
          "first wireless telephone base-station."  The private system                
          has two transceivers (col. 3., lines 65-67):  "The radio                    
          telephone subscriber circuits are connected to                              
          transmission/reception antennas 18, 19 through transceivers                 
          (TRX) 16 . . . ."  A base station of a cell of the public                   
          cellular system corresponds to the claimed "second wireless                 
          telephone base-station."  The portable telephone set 20                     
          corresponds to the claimed "portable wireless telephone                     
          instrument" and can communicate with the private radio                      
          telephone system or the public cellular radio telephone system              
          (e.g., col. 3, line 65, to col. 4, line 7).  The power level                
          of the private radio telephone system is kept at a very low                 
          intensity so as to not affect the public cellular radio                     
          telephone system (col. 2, lines 10-18), and the cellular                    
          system uses a high power level to cover a greater geographical              

                                       - 17 -
