Appeal No. 2003-0191
Application 09/155,278
appellant’s first and second hybrid transmission polarization
couplers connected to at least one hybrid distribution coupler in
the manner required by the appellant’s claim 1.
For the above reasons we find that the examiner has not
carried the burden of establishing a prima facie case of
anticipation by Runyon of the radio station claimed in the
appellant’s claim 1. We therefore reverse the rejection of this
claim and claims 2, 3, 5-9 and 11-14 that depend therefrom.
DECISION
The rejection of claims 1-3, 5-9 and 11-14 under 35 U.S.C.
§ 102(e) over Runyon is reversed.
