The world's first 5g patent fee

Recently, 5G has become the focus of communication field, and related technology companies are scrambling to lay out in the 5G field. Unfortunately, in the 5G era, China Huawei made every effort to bid farewell to the 5G standard by one vote, and the future data channel coding scheme will adopt Qualcomm LFPC technology.

It is a foregone conclusion that American companies will dominate the 5G technical standards. In other words, in the future, all mobile phones supporting the 5G network need to be approved and paid by Qualcomm. At the same time, Qualcomm has also announced the licensing rate of 5G patent authorization, and all devices that fully comply with 3GPP Release 15 must pay patent fees.

The fees for using Qualcomm for 5G patents are as follows: the patent utilization rate of single-mode 5G mobile phones is 2.275%; The patent utilization rate of multi-mode (3G/4G/5G) mobile phones is 3.25%. In other words, every time you sell a mobile phone, you have to pay the patent fee to Qualcomm.

In China, it is basically a multi-mode mobile phone, and a single mobile phone costs 32.5 yuan per thousand yuan. From 2065438 to 2007, Huawei, OPPO, VIVO and Xiaomi represented 462 million domestic 4G mobile phones. According to the average price of 2,000 yuan, domestic manufacturers may have to pay 3 billion yuan of patent fees to Qualcomm every year.
