               Application No. 08/910,297                                                                                           


               USPQ2d 1430, 1434 (Fed. Cir. 2002).  Lastly, impermissible hindsight can not take the place of the                   
               required evidentiary showing.                                                                                        
                       Based upon the foregoing, the obviousness rejection of claims 1 through 5 is reversed.  The                  
               obviousness rejection of claims 6 through 15 is reversed because the multiplier teachings of Hwang                   
               and the antenna wavelength separation distance teachings of Bottomley do not cure the noted                          
               shortcomings in the teachings of Lo and Iwasaki.                                                                     
                                                             DECISION                                                               
                       The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through 15 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is                       
               reversed.
