DETAILED ACTION
Notice of Pre-AIA or AIA Status
The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA .
Election/Restrictions
Applicant's election with traverse of Groups I and III in the reply filed on 12/29/25 is acknowledged. The traversal is on the ground(s) that “the search and examination of all of the claims can be made without serious burden to the Examiner”. This is not found persuasive because it is non-specific and does not effectively address the distinctions between the claim groups detailed in the Restriction Requirement mailed 10/28/25.
The requirement is still deemed proper and is therefore made FINAL.
Claims 1-7 and 15-20 are examined herein.
Information Disclosure Statement
The information disclosure statements (IDS) filed on 7/18/24 and 1/27/25 are considered by the examiner.
Drawings
The drawings are objected to under 37 CFR 1.83(a). The drawings must show every feature of the invention specified in the claims. Therefore, the “second capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch includes one or more antenna elements having an X-shaped dual-polarized configuration” must be shown or the feature(s) canceled from the claim(s). No new matter should be entered.
Corrected drawing sheets in compliance with 37 CFR 1.121(d) are required in reply to the Office action to avoid abandonment of the application. Any amended replacement drawing sheet should include all of the figures appearing on the immediate prior version of the sheet, even if only one figure is being amended. The figure or figure number of an amended drawing should not be labeled as “amended.” If a drawing figure is to be canceled, the appropriate figure must be removed from the replacement sheet, and where necessary, the remaining figures must be renumbered and appropriate changes made to the brief description of the several views of the drawings for consistency. Additional replacement sheets may be necessary to show the renumbering of the remaining figures. Each drawing sheet submitted after the filing date of an application must be labeled in the top margin as either “Replacement Sheet” or “New Sheet” pursuant to 37 CFR 1.121(d). If the changes are not accepted by the examiner, the applicant will be notified and informed of any required corrective action in the next Office action. The objection to the drawings will not be held in abeyance.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112(b):
(b) CONCLUSION.—The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor regards as the invention.
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA ), second paragraph:
The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his invention.
Claims 1-7 and 15-20 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(b) or 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA ), second paragraph, as being indefinite for failing to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor (or for applications subject to pre-AIA 35 U.S.C. 112, the applicant), regards as the invention.
Regarding claim 1, the limitation of “a via-fed dual-polarized patch; a first capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch capacitively coupled to the via-fed dual-polarized patch through an air gap; and a second capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch capacitively coupled to the first capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch through a dielectric layer” is indefinite in that the claimed limitation is inconsistent with the otherwise disclosed invention. In detail: [0057] of the disclosure recites the via-fed dual-polarized patch as being element 502 of Figs. 5A-5C, however, 502 does not appear to be a via-fed patch; similarly, [0057] of the disclosure recites the first capacitive-fed-dual polarized patch as being element 504 of Figs. 5A-5C, however, 504 appears to be a via-fed patch (see Fig. 5C); further, [0057] of the disclosure recites the second capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch as being element 508, however, element 508 is capacitively coupled to element 502 through dielectric layer 510, rather than being capacitively coupled to element 504, as apparently claimed. It is therefore unclear to the examiner based on the discrepancy between the claim language and the disclosure’s recitation of the claimed elements, whether the elements are appropriately detailed, thus the scope of the claim as written is deemed indefinite. To expedite prosecution, the claim will be examined as best understood by the examiner.
Claims 2-7 are included for their dependency upon claim 1.
Regarding claim 3, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed length and width which depend upon this term. Further, the “length” and “width” recited are in relation to an X-shaped antenna element, which does not have an obviously definable “length” and “width” as such terms may relate to the perspective height and width of the X shape interpreted as the letter, or the length corresponding to the extent of one arm and the width to the other, or the length corresponding to the length of either arm and the width to the lateral dimension of each arm; thus, without these aspects being clearly defined within the bounds of the claim nor the remainder of the disclosure, the limitation renders the claim indefinite in scope. To expedite prosecution, the claim will be examined as best understood by the examiner.
Claim 5 is included for its dependency upon claim 3.
Regarding claim 5, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed length and width which depend upon this term.
Regarding claim 6, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed distance which depends upon this term.
Regarding claim 7, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed thickness which depends upon this term.
Regarding claim 15, the limitation of “capacitively coupling a second capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch to the first capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch through a dielectric layer” is indefinite in that the claimed limitation is inconsistent with the otherwise disclosed invention. In detail: [0057] of the disclosure recites the first capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch as being element 504, and the second capacitive-fed dual-polarized patch as being element 508, however, element 508 is capacitively coupled to element 502 through dielectric layer 510, rather than being capacitively coupled to element 504, as apparently claimed. It is therefore unclear to the examiner based on the discrepancy between the claim language and the disclosure’s recitation of the claimed elements, whether the elements are appropriately detailed, thus the scope of the claim as written is deemed indefinite. To expedite prosecution, the claim will be examined as best understood by the examiner.
Claims 16-20 are included for their dependency upon claim 15.
Regarding claim 17, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed length and width which depend upon this term. Further, the “length” and “width” recited are in relation to an X-shaped antenna element, which does not have an obviously definable “length” and “width” as such terms may relate to the perspective height and width of the X shape interpreted as the letter, or the length corresponding to the extent of one arm and the width to the other, or the length corresponding to the length of either arm and the width to the lateral dimension of each arm; thus, without these aspects being clearly defined within the bounds of the claim nor the remainder of the disclosure, the limitation renders the claim indefinite in scope. To expedite prosecution, the claim will be examined as best understood by the examiner.
Regarding claim 19, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed length and width which depend upon this term.
Regarding claim 20, the claim is indefinite in scope as the value of λ0 is not defined within the language of the claim, thus rendering indefinite the bounds of the claimed distance and thickness which depend upon this term.
