Extended data:

Huawei ranked first in patent applications.

IPLytics, an international patent data company, released the report "Leader of 5G Patent Competition" in early March this year, which showed that the number of patent claim families necessary for 5G standards was disclosed to ETSI (European Telecommunications Standardization Association).

The report covers 22 enterprises. Among them, Huawei ranked first with 15.39% application, Qualcomm ranked second with 1 1.24% application, and ZTE ranked third with 9.8 1% application.
