          Application 09/155,278                                                      


                                    THE INVENTION                                     
               The appellant claims a radio station which, the appellant              
          states, may be used particularly as a base station in cellular              
          radio systems (specification, page 1, lines 2-3).  Claim 1 is               
          illustrative:                                                               
               1.   A radio station, comprising:                                      
               first and second hybrid transmission polarisation couplers;            
               first and second antennas respectively associated with said            
          first and second hybrid transmission polarisation couplers, each            
          antenna being arranged to generate two orthogonal electric field            
          components in response to two respective quadrature radio signals           
          from the polarisation coupler associated therewith;                         
               at least one hybrid distribution coupler having a first                
          output connected to a first input of the first polarisation                 
          coupler and a second output connected to a first input of the               
          second polarisation coupler; and                                            
               at least one radio signal source delivering a radio signal             
          to a first input of the distribution coupler.                               
                                    THE REFERENCE
