Description
Many important standards incorporate proprietary technology that can be licensed from patent pools. Patent pools are agreements between different patent holders to offer joint licenses for a bundle of patents. Since the successful launch of the MPEG2
2 and DVD patent pools in 1997 and 1999 the phenomenon is evolving at breathtaking speed. Patent pools are today a phenomenon of increasing and undeniable importance. Modern mobile phones, DVD or mp3 players, receivers for digital TV.: all these high tech consumer goods use technology that can be licensed from patent pools. The value of products produced under pool licenses by now exceeds 100 billion US dollar per year even taking into account only the US market (Clarkson, 2004).
