Overview
Patent activity is a good measure of a company’s competitiveness and its ability to protect its long-term profitability. Patents are internationally defendable and ensure that a company with a strong bias towards research innovation will maintain a strong market presence and a good return for its investors.
Patents can be used offensively, defensively, or simply to build company image, and are a key component in a robust business strategy. Ever since NTP’s $612.5m infringement award against RIM, patent disputes have become commonplace and 2010 has seen a rash of new infringement cases with Qualcomm, Apple, Nokia and HTC in the thick of things.
In this report, ARCchart’s patent analysis shows the handset user interface as the highest growth patenting area ? mainly as a result of the disruption of Apple’s entry into the market. Imaging is also a growth area, especially around visual search and augmented reality, with Google being particularly prevalent in new patents. Patenting in the run-up to LTE has also accelerated, especially in the key areas of OFDM and MIMO. Although Nokia and Ericsson dominated WCDMA and were very influential with HSPA, it looks like they are losing out to Qualcomm and the South Korean vendors Samsung and LG in the race for new patents in the crucial areas of LTE.
The report draws conclusions from raw patent data showing how a sophisticated patent strategy can build lasting success and continued growth.
Topics of coverage include:
- How patents help build a competitive advantage
- The four key patenting strategies in mobile
- IPR as a proportion of handset cost
- Latest patenting trends
- Patent pools
- Significant new mobile patents
- Non-Practicing Entities (NPEs) - strategies and influence
- Patent disputes and resolutions
- Mobile patenting volume analysis
- Areas of high patenting activity ? Navigation, UI, Imaging, NFC and GPS
- Mobile operator patents
