Appeal No. 2000-2261
Application 08/730,670
Representative claim 1 is reproduced below:
1. A radio transmitter/receiver for selectively transmitted
digitally modulated signals in a digital mode or analog modulated
signals in an analog mod comprising:
digital signal processing means having an input for
receiving an information signal, a first output for supplying an
In-phase modulating signal I and a second output for supplying a
Quadrature modulating signal Q;
quadrature modulation means coupled to the first and second
outputs for digitally modulating a carrier frequency in the
digital mode to produce a digitally modulated signal; and
analog modulation means coupled to the first and second
output for generating an analog modulation of a carrier frequency
in the analog mode to produce an analog modulated signal, wherein
said In-phase modulating signal I and said Quadrature modulating
signal Q bypass said quadrature modulation means in order to
produce said analog modulated signal.
The following references are relied on by the examiner:
Nonami 5,251,232 Oct. 5, 1993
Denheyer et al.
(Denheyer) 5,642,378 June 24, 1997
(filing date Nov. 17, 1994)
As a result of more recent prosecution between the parties
in this application after the final rejection, the following
issues remain for our consideration. Claims 1, 7, 26, 27 and 30
stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) as being anticipated by
Denheyer. Lastly, claims 1, 2, 6 and 7 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 103. As evidence of obviousness, the examiner relies
upon Nonami in view of Denheyer.
