Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103 which forms the basis for all obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action:
A patent for a claimed invention may not be obtained, notwithstanding that the claimed invention is not identically disclosed as set forth in section 102, if the differences between the claimed invention and the prior art are such that the claimed invention as a whole would have been obvious before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the claimed invention pertains. Patentability shall not be negated by the manner in which the invention was made.
Claims 1-2, 4-5, 16, and 18 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Grant et al. (US 7202826 B2, hereinafter Grant) in view of Liversidge et al. (WO 2022123056 A1, hereinafter Liversidge).
Regarding claim 1, Grant (Fig. 1; col. 4, lines 27-45) discloses an antenna system (10), comprising:
a main ground element (20/22 – regarding the main ground element, see col. 4, lines 38-41);
a first antenna element (30) having a first feeding point (74); and
a second antenna element (40) having a second feeding point (76), wherein the second antenna element is coupled to the main ground element.
Grant does not teach a floating ground element adjacent to the main ground element, wherein the floating ground element is separated from the main ground element, and wherein the main ground element and the floating ground element are disposed on a same plane. Further, Grant does not teach the limitation wherein the first antenna element is coupled to the floating ground element.
Liversidge (Figs. 4B-4C; p. 14, lines 21-32) teaches a floating ground element (14 – Fig. 4B) adjacent to the main ground element (12 – Fig. 4B), wherein the floating ground element is separated from the main ground element (see Fig. 4C – separation is achieved by the ring (17)), wherein the main ground element and the floating ground element are disposed on a same plane. Liversidge further teaches an antenna element (Dipole – Fig. 4B) is coupled to the floating ground element (see Fig. 4B – coupling between the antenna element and the floating ground element is achieved by the Coaxial Feed Cable).
It would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant to add a floating ground element adjacent to the main ground element, wherein the floating ground element is separated from the main ground element, wherein the main ground element and the floating ground element are disposed on a same plane, and wherein the first antenna element is coupled to the floating ground element as taught by Liversidge. This modification would result in the antenna system having a first antenna element with independent control of high band impedance matching and CMR (Common Mode Resonance) filtering at the low band (see Liversidge, p. 15, lines 35-37 and p. 16, lines 1-3).
Regarding claim 2, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 1 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not explicitly teach the limitation, wherein the floating ground element is surrounded by the main ground element, and a partition gap is formed between the floating ground element and the main ground element.
Liversidge (Figs. 4B-4C; p. 15, lines 4-7) teaches a floating ground element (14 – Fig. 4B) is surrounded by the main ground element (12 – Fig. 4B), and a partition gap (17 – Fig. 4C; see p. 15, lines 4-7) is formed between the floating ground element and the main ground element.
It would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant so that the floating ground element is surrounded by the main ground element, and a partition gap is formed between the floating ground element and the main ground element as taught by Liversidge. This modification would result in the antenna system having a first antenna element with independent control of high band impedance matching and CMR (Common Mode Resonance) filtering at the low band (see Liversidge, p. 15, lines 35-37 and p. 16, lines 1-3).
Regarding claim 4, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 1 as addressed above.
Grant (col. 5, lines 23-27) further teaches the first antenna element (30) supports a vehicle communication and covers a first frequency band.
Regarding claim 5, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 4 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not explicitly teach the first frequency band is between 5850MHz and 5925MHz.
However, Grant (col. 5, lines 42-53) teaches that the first antenna element (30) can cover various frequency bands. Furthermore, it is well-known in the art that by changing the antenna electrical length it can cover a specific frequency band of operation.
Therefore, it would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant, so that the first frequency band is between 5850MHz and 5925MHz. This modification would provide an antenna system operating in the desired first frequency band. Furthermore, it has been held that where the general conditions of a claim are disclosed in the prior art, discovering the optimum or working ranges involves only routine skill in the art. In re Aller, 105 USPQ 233.
Regarding claim 16, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 1 as addressed above.
Grant (Fig. 1) further teaches the second antenna element (40) is a planar inverted F antenna.
Regarding claim 18, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 1 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not explicitly teach a distance between the second antenna element and the first antenna element is between 40mm and 60mm.
However, the Specification ([0063], lines 26-30) discloses: “A specific distant DS between the first antenna element 300 and the second antenna element 600 can be between 40 mm and 60 mm. The above dimension ranges are obtained based on multiple experimental results, which help to optimize the omnidirectionality, operational bandwidth, and impedance matching of the antenna system 100.” Furthermore, Grant (col. 7, lines4-18) teaches that the first antenna element (30) and the second antenna element (40) are positioned so that the mutual coupling between the two antenna elements is effectively reduced. It is well-known in the art that the mutual coupling between the two antenna elements can be changed by adjusting the separation between these antenna elements.
Therefore, it would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant, so that a distance between the second antenna element and the first antenna element is between 40mm and 60mm. This modification would provide antenna system with the desired performance – e.g., isolation between the antenna elements as taught by Grant. Furthermore, it has been held that where the general conditions of a claim are disclosed in the prior art, discovering the optimum or working ranges involves only routine skill in the art. In re Aller, 105 USPQ 233.
Claims 6-13 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over the modified Grant as applied to claim 1 in view of Sharma et al. (“A Meandered Rectangular Monopole Antenna for Quad-Band Applications”, 2015 IEEE International Microwave and RF Conference, hereinafter Sharma).
Regarding claim 6, the modified Grant teaches the antenna of claim 1 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not teach the limitation wherein the first antenna element is a monopole antenna.
Sharma (Fig. 4) teaches a monopole antenna element.
It would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant by replacing the first antenna element in Grant with the antenna element of Sharma. This modification would result in an antenna system having a quad-band monopole antenna covering four operating frequency bands (see Sharma, Abstract) as a first antenna element.
Regarding claim 7, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 4 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not explicitly teach the limitation wherein the first antenna element comprises:
a first radiation portion coupled to the first feeding point;
a second radiation portion; and
a third radiation portion, wherein the third radiation portion is coupled to the first radiation portion through the second radiation portion.

a third radiation portion, wherein the third radiation portion is coupled to the first radiation portion through the second radiation portion (regarding the feeding point, the first radiation portion, the second radiation portion, and the third radiation portion, see annotated Fig. 4 in Sharma below).
It would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant by replacing the first antenna element in Grant with the antenna element of Sharma, so that the first antenna element comprises: a first radiation portion coupled to the first feeding point; a second radiation portion; and a third radiation portion, wherein the third radiation portion is coupled to the first radiation portion through the second radiation portion.

Regarding claim 9, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 7 as addressed above.
The modified Grant does not explicitly teach the limitation wherein a length of the first radiation portion is approximately equal to 0.25 times the wavelength of the first frequency band.
However, the Specification ([0063], lines 28-30) discloses: “The above dimension ranges are obtained based on multiple experimental results, which help to optimize the omnidirectionality, operational bandwidth, and impedance matching of the antenna system 100.” Furthermore, it is well-known in the art that the length of an antenna element and, thus, the lengths of portions of the antenna element are proportional to the wavelength of radiation corresponding to the frequency of operation.
Therefore, it would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant, so that a length of the first radiation portion is approximately equal to 0.25 times the wavelength of the first frequency band. This modification would provide antenna system with the desired performance – e.g., achieving good antenna return loss (i.e., impedance matching) for the desired frequency band(s) of operation (see Sharma, Fig. 8). Furthermore, it has been held that discovering an optimum value of a result effective variable involves only routine skill in the art. In re Boesch, 617 F.2d 272, 205 USPQ 215 (CCP A 1980).
Regarding claim 10, the modified Grant teaches the antenna system of claim 7 as addressed above.

Therefore, it would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant, so that a length of the second radiation portion is approximately equal to 0.5 times the wavelength of the first frequency band. This modification would provide antenna system with the desired performance – e.g., achieving good antenna return loss (i.e., impedance matching) for the desired frequency band(s) of operation (see Sharma, Fig. 8). Furthermore, it has been held that discovering an optimum value of a result effective variable involves only routine skill in the art. In re Boesch, 617 F.2d 272, 205 USPQ 215 (CCP A 1980).

It would have been prima facie obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to modify Grant to include a carrier plate, wherein the floating ground element is disposed on the carrier plate as taught by Liversidge. This modification would result in the antenna system having a first antenna element with independent control of high band impedance matching and CMR (Common Mode Resonance) filtering at the low band (see Liversidge, p. 15, lines 35-37 and p. 16, lines 1-3).
