          Application No. 08/644,465                                                      


               Here, independent claim 1 specifies in pertinent part the                  
          following limitations: "measuring a time between a base                         
          station's transmitted signal and a corresponding received                       
          signal transmitted from a remote unit to produce a measured                     
          phase shift; comparing the measured phase shift to a threshold                  
          to produce a comparison. . . ."  Similarly, independent claim                   
          7 specifies in pertinent part the following limitations:                        
          "measuring a time, between a base station's transmitted signal                  
          and a corresponding received signal transmitted from a remote                   
          unit to produce a measured phase shift; comparing the phase                     
          shift to a threshold to produce a comparison. . . .”  Also                      
          similarly, independent claim 11 specifies in pertinent part                     
          the following limitations: “measuring a plurality of times                      
          between the plurality of base station's transmitted signals                     
          and corresponding received signals transmitted from a remote                    
          unit to produce a plurality of phase shift measurements; . . .                  
          comparing the plurality of phase shift measurements to a                        
          plurality of thresholds to produce a comparison. . . .”                         
          Further similarly, independent claim 14 specifies in pertinent                  
          part the following limitations: “means for measuring an                         
          uncorrected phase shift of a remote unit to produce a measured
