Abstract

Patent pools play a critical role in adapting to new technology standards by simplifying the licensing of Standard-Essential Patents (SEPs). The Avanci 5G pool provides a licensing platform for vehicle manufacturers to access essential technologies for connected vehicles. Despite the growing importance of these pools, there is limited research on the dynamics of participation and its implications for different stakeholders. This study provides a descriptive analysis of the Avanci 5G pool, particularly focusing on the development of the SEP and licensee coverage since its inception. It uses a mixed-methods approach and combines multiple data sources for the coverage estimates. My findings reveal substantial growth in both SEP and licensee coverage but highlight a significant gap in the participation of Asian automakers, potentially due to perceived anti-competitive risks. Policy makers and relevant stakeholders should aim to foster a competitive and innovative environment in SEP licensing.
