Appeal 2007-1267
Application 09-967617
2. The claims mention datagrams. (e.g. Claim 1). The
specification relates: “As will be further described below, each
user link has only a portion of the total signal to be received.
These signal portions are referred to as datagrams in the present
invention. Hub and router 76 receive various datagrams from
the different user links [76 (sic)] and reassembles them.”
(Specification, ¶ 0055). The Microsoft Press Computer
Dictionary, Third Edition, (1997) defines datagram as “One
packet, or unit, of information, along with relevant delivery
information such as the destination address, that is sent through
a packet-switching network.” (Answer, appendix).
3. The claims mention “a plurality of multiple dynamic links
corresponding to said communication infrastructure” (e.g.,
Claim 1). In the specification, the Appellants assist our
understanding of these terms as follows, “Each of the user links
and feeder links may be multiple dynamic links meaning there
are many which are subject to change as the users and
infrastructure move in relation to each other.”
PRINCIPLES OF LAW
On appeal, Appellants bear the burden of showing that the Examiner
has not established a legally sufficient basis for the rejection of the claims.
