Claims 1 and 7 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as
clearly anticipated by either of the Zhanxun references.
We reverse.
To establish anticipation of the claimed subject matter
under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b), the examiner must demonstrate that
the Zhanxun references individually describe all the claimed
elements. Richardson v. Suzuki Motor Co., 868 F.2d 1226,
1236,
9 USPQ2d 1913, 1920 (Fed. Cir.), cert. denied, 100 S. Ct. 154
(1989). Further, the examiner must demonstrate that the
Zhanxun references describe the claimed invention sufficiently
to have placed a person of ordinary skill in the art in
possession of it. In re Payne,606 F.2d 303, 314-315, 203 USPQ
