Most of the time, it is thanks to
a very large check that resolves the conflicts between the largest
businesses.
This time, it's Apple that could have to put its hand in the wallet
after Swedish Erickson decided to send him to court in
Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
As is often the case, the dispute between the two companies is
intervene in patents from which the Swede accuses Apple of profiting without paying.
As a result, Ericsson is demanding a small sum from Cupertino:
The patents in question relate to 2G and 4G LTE technologies.
For Kasim Alfalahi, head of intellectual property at Ericsson,
Apple benefits from these patents without having to pay for the license. Ericsson hopes
so recover its du which could correspond to, excuse me a little, a
range between 240 and 725 million per year.
Let's just remember that Ericsson also filed the same complaint in the US
in the month of January. For your information Samsung agreed to pay 650
million per year to Ericsson to end the conflict.
