近年来,高新技术企业已成为我国最重要的新经济增长点,然而,其在国际化发展中却频遭专利诉讼。对此,本文采用探索性案例研究对中兴公司典型的专利诉讼案件进行分析,按照中兴公司的发展阶段,以移动通讯技术的变化纵向展开,深入挖掘诉讼双方的专利申请和布局规律,在可视化企业专利布局基础上,研究2G、3G、4G时期通讯行业不同的竞争态势,并对中兴采取的差异化专利布局策略进行了深入分析。最后,基于回避设计、围堵式、地毯式、围墙式四种专利布局策略及其适用性,为处于初创、成长、成熟期等不同发展阶段的中国高新技术企业提供国际化专利布局策略,旨在为我国企业如何应对外国公司技术垄断,成功国际化提供建议。
High - tech firms are the most important new economic growth points in our country, but they have frequently encountered patent litigation in international development. Aiming at this phenomenon, we conducted an explorative case study on the typical patent litigation cases of ZTE company. According to the development stages of ZTE company and the development of mobile communications technology, we deeply excavated the patent applications and distribution patterns of the litigant parties. Then, on the basis of firm patent layout visualization, we studied the competition situation of telecommunication firms in 2G, 3 G, 4G era, and ZTE' patent layout strategy in current situation. Finally, based on the summarized four patent layout strategies (e. g. containment layout and blanket layout) and corresponding applicability, we give proposals regarding patent layouts to Chinese high - tech companies at different development stages such as start - up, development and maturation period to help them optimize technology resource allocation and achieve innovation -driven development.
