          Appeal No. 1998-0666                                                        
          Application 08/467,876                                                      


          process [column 3, lines 8-12], we agree with the examiner                  
          that the disclosure as a whole suggests that this wake-up                   
          information is continually adjusted and transmitted to each                 
          mobile unit as conditions warrant.  In other words, the                     
          artisan would have understood from the Tayloe disclosure that               
          DRX information is also transmitted to mobile units after                   
          registration has occurred.  Otherwise, a substantial number of              
          mobile units would be unaffected by the traffic considerations              
          which are so important in Tayloe.  Such a reading of Tayloe                 
          seems inappropriate to this panel.  Thus, we find that the                  
          disclosure of Tayloe, as understood by the artisan, meets the               
          claim recitations of transmitting page frame modifiers from                 
          the system to the mobile units to maintain a current assigned               
          page class or to establish a new assigned page class.                       
          Even if appellant’s argument that Tayloe sets wake-up                       
          information only at initial registration is correct, we are                 
          still of the view that the invention of independent claims 13,              
          54 and 59 would be met by the operation of Tayloe’s system.                 
          Specifically, we view these claims as broad enough to be met                
          by the page frame update in Tayloe which would occur every                  
          time a given mobile unit leaves one paging area 100 and enters              
                                          6
