| Huawei and Ericsson collaborate on patents |
Huawei and Ericsson have entered into a global long-term patent cross-licensing agreement covering standard-essential patents under 3GPP, ITU, IEEE and IETF standards for 3G, 4G and 5G mobile technologies.
“We are delighted to have reached a long-term global patent cross-licensing agreement with Ericsson,” said Alan Fan, Huawei’s head of intellectual property. “This collaboration will help build a stronger patent environment and demonstrate our commitment to promoting respect for and proper protection of intellectual property rights.”
Over the past 20 years, Huawei has been a mainstream ICT standards provider, covering the fields of cellular technology, Wi-Fi, and multimedia data encryption. In 2022, Huawei topped the European Patent Office's patent filing rankings with 4,504 applications.
“Our commitment to sharing leading technological innovations will contribute to the healthy and sustainable development of the industry, providing consumers with more innovative products and services. As the owner and implementer of standard essential patents (SEPs), Huawei always seeks a balance in licensing. Through the agreement, Huawei and Ericsson will both grant and receive access to each other’s key technologies,” added Alan Fan.
