4G LTE network technology has an enormous market and is a door to the future of telecommunications and networking. It aims at high speed and large capacity networks. Moreover, it is focused on developing a ubiquitous network to interconnect everything together. This huge potential for sales has triggered a flood of patent filings towards LTE standardization process. Not just Qualcomm, Huawei, Samsung, InterDigital, Ericsson and Nokia but almost every company related to telecommunications has made contributions. ETSI maintains a database of these filings. However, ETSI does not carry out any investigation towards the validity of these filings. ETSI also does not mention if the filed patents are “Standard Essential” or not.
Find out who are the major players claiming stake in the LTE standardization process. This study explores LTE patent filings and performs an in-depth analysis. Top rated patents are identified and verified for their Standard Essential” status. Find out which patents do you need to really license to launch that next 4G compatible device….
