摘要
标准必要专利通常是指为了使工业产品符合技术标准而必须使用的专利技术。由于所有产业参与者均必须遵守相同的标准,所有的标准实施者都不得不实施标准必要专利并向专利权人支付许可费,从而使得标准必要专利权人能够获取超额的回报。作为惯例,国际标准组织通常情况下都会要求专利权人做出对专利实施人许可标准必要专利的FRAND(公平、合理、无歧视)声明,以此对标准必要专利权人的权利作出一些限制。然而,各标准化国际组织对FRAND声明的内涵均无具体的解释和规定,这直接导致了标准必要专利权纠纷中禁令救济和费率计算的复杂化。对于FRAND声明的不同理解和认定必然影响到禁令救济的适用和专利许可费率的计算。因此,FRAND性质的理解、禁令救济和许可费率问题成为标准必要专利纠纷中密切关联的最具争议的问题。
Standard Essential Patent refers to the patented technology that must be used in order to make industrial products conform to technical standards.Since all industry participants must abide by the same standard,all standard implementers have to implement Standard Essential Patents and pay royalties to the patentees,so that the Standard Essential Patentees can obtain excessive returns.As a common practice,the international standards organization usually requires the patentee to make FRAND(fair,reasonable,non-discrimination)statement for the patent implementer to license the Standard Essential Patent,so as to make some restrictions on the rights of the standard essential patentee.However,Each standardization international organization has no specific explanation and regulation on the connotation of FRAND statement,which directly leads to the complexity of injunctive relief and the complexity of rate calculation in the dispute of infringement of Standard Essential Patent right.The different understanding and recognition of FRAND statement will inevitably affect the application of injunctive relief and the calculation of patent licensing rate.Therefore,the understanding of FRAND nature,injunctive relief and licensing rate have become the most controversial and closely related issues in Standard E ssential Patent disputes.
