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


          a new paging area 100.  That is, the radiocommunication system              
          in Tayloe, including all the paging areas 100 [Figure 1],                   
          transmits wake-up information to a mobile unit at this time                 
          which either maintains the previously assigned page class or                
          commands the mobile unit to use a new page class.  The claims               
          do not preclude the transmitting step, the transmitter or the               
          processing unit from making the adjustment as paging areas are              
          entered.  Tayloe would clearly meet this broad statement of                 
          the invention.                                                              
          Therefore, we sustain the examiner’s rejection of                           
          claims 13, 54 and 59 as anticipated by the disclosure of                    
          Tayloe.  Since dependent claims 14, 15, 55, 56, 60 and 61 are               
          grouped with one of these independent claims [brief, page 4],               
          we also sustain the rejection of these claims.                              
          With respect to claims 47 and 57, appellant argues                          
          that these claims are not met by Tayloe because Tayloe fails                
          to teach or suggest the transmission of any page frame                      
          modifier [brief, page 6].  This argument has already been                   
          decided adversely to appellant.  Additionally, the examiner                 
          has explained how he reads these claims on Tayloe [answer,                  
          page 7], and appellant has not provided any rebuttal arguments              
                                          7
