5G Patent Landscape
Bringing clarity to 5G patent negotiations
Navigating the 5G patent landscape
The 5G patent landscape has been growing consistently over the past decade. 5G technology represents the forefront of telecommunications, marked by significant speed, capacity, and connectivity enhancements. The latest advancements in 5G standards, encapsulated in the 3GPP Release 18 and the upcoming Release 19, are set to enhance mobile broadband, massive IoT, and ultra-reliable low-latency communications, paving the way for future 6G technologies. As of October 30, 2024, 555,000 patent families were declared to ETSI, highlighting the intense innovation and competition in this field.
The cut-throat patent landscape of 5G technology
The 5G Standard Essential Patents (SEPs) licensing market is highly lucrative, driving intense competition and geopolitical maneuvering as countries seek to dominate this critical technological landscape. This competitive patent race underscores the importance of 5G in maintaining leadership in industrial value chains. Let’s examine the top critical challenges in the highly competitive 5G SEP landscape.

Understanding the challenges posed by undeclared patents
For those in the 5G technology space, the dearth of data on undeclared patents creates a landscape fraught with uncertainty. Monitoring 5G patent filing and ownership helps quantify risks and forecast future royalty expenses or income. Licensors, licensees, and IP attorneys must, therefore, arm themselves with the tools to uncover undeclared 5G patents, ensuring due diligence is conducted, and strategic decisions are grounded in reliable data. In summary, a comprehensive understanding of the 5G patent landscape obtained through analytics empowers both SEP owners and SEP implementers with information to negotiate effectively on royalties and plan their IP budgets.
