         Appeal No. 1999-1895                                                    
         Application No. 08/363,315                                              


         has been determined to be lacking from De Gaudenzi.                     
         Accordingly, we will reverse the rejection of claim 13 and its          
         dependent, claim 14, for the same reasons given by the                  
         examiner for indicating the allowability of independent claim           
         9.                                                                      
              The claims remaining, claims 5 through 8, do not include           
         a second phase shifting step or means.  However, independent            
         claim 5 does recite, in pertinent part, "first phase shifting           
         means for causing a phase difference of B/2  between any twon                              
         encoded signals adjacent to one another among the n encoded             
         signals."
