Spring MVC: Complex object as GET @RequestParam

Suppose i have a page that lists the objects on a table and i need to put a form to filter the table. The filter is sent as an Ajax GET to an URL like that: http://foo.com/system/controller/action?page=1&prop1=x&prop2=y&prop3=z

And instead of having lots of parameters on my Controller like:

@RequestMapping(value = "/action")
public @ResponseBody List<MyObject> myAction(
    @RequestParam(value = "page", required = false) int page,
    @RequestParam(value = "prop1", required = false) String prop1,
    @RequestParam(value = "prop2", required = false) String prop2,
    @RequestParam(value = "prop3", required = false) String prop3) { ... }

And supposing i have MyObject as:

public class MyObject {
    private String prop1;
    private String prop2;
    private String prop3;

    //Getters and setters
    ...
}

I wanna do something like:

@RequestMapping(value = "/action")
public @ResponseBody List<MyObject> myAction(
    @RequestParam(value = "page", required = false) int page,
    @RequestParam(value = "myObject", required = false) MyObject myObject,) { ... }

Is it possible?
How can i do that?
