Application 08/358,792
tracking station and the bearing to the target are transmitted.
We next consider the rejection of dependent claim 21 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as
being unpatentable over Reagan, Fraughton, Angeloni and Haemmig. As claim 21 is
dependent upon claim 14, it contains the limitations addressed above with respect to
claim 14. As stated above, we find that the combination of Reagan, Fraughton, Angeloni
fails to teach or suggest a mobile tracking unit which determines it’s position, determines
the bearing to the target and broadcasts the position and bearing data. Further, we find
that Haemmig fails to teach or suggest a mobile tracking station where the position of the
tracking station and the bearing to the target are transmitted.
We next consider the rejection of dependent claim 26 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as
being unpatentable over Reagan, Fraughton, Angeloni and Sorden. As claim 26 is
dependent upon claim 24, it contains the limitations addressed above with respect to
claim 24. As stated above, we find that the combination of Reagan, Fraughton, Angeloni
fails to teach or suggest a mobile tracking unit which determines it’s position, determines
the bearing to the target and broadcasts the position and bearing data. Furthermore, we
find that Sorden fails to teach or suggest a mobile tracking station where the position of the
tracking station and the bearing to the target are transmitted.
