Nokia: announces expectations for 5G licenses

(CercleFinance.com) - On Tuesday, Nokia, which has been developing and testing various 5G-based technologies for several years, provided its expectations for licenses to use its innovations.


"Nokia is a long-term innovator in the development of fundamental technologies for wireless communications and has made significant contributions to the development of related standards for more than two decades. This research and development investment has resulted in a significant portfolio of standard essential patents (SEPs), which Nokia has committed to license on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms," the Finnish group said.

Stating that a number of 5G standards, to be finalised in 2018, will be based on its innovations and work, Nokia expects the licensing rate for its patent portfolio to be capped at 3 euros per device.

"Beyond mobile phones, Nokia believes that there will be an unprecedented variety of end user devices that will use Nokia innovation. For other categories of devices, Nokia will determine its licensing rates separately and seeks to engage in constructive dialogue with relevant industry participants to define the licensing models best suited for those industries,' Nokia said.
