.~ With spaced or external radio wave refractor (e.g., lens) {2}
755
.~.~ With reflector
DEFINITION
Classification: 343/755
(under subclass 753) Subject matter including a reflector, or wherein the refractor is also adapted to perform a reflecting function.
(1) Note. For definitions of a reflector per se and associated with an active antenna, see subclasses 912 and 834, respectively.
(2) Note. The reflector may be spaced from the refractor or may be contiguous with the refractor to form a backer for the refractor. Further, the refractor may inherently reflect the impinging radio waves at a surface opposite to that where the waves impinge, due to differences which may exist in the refractor material and that of the contiguous or surrounding material.
