Korea likely to pay 1.74-billion dollar royalties for IMT-2000 service
¡¡Whether domestic mobile communication operators adopt synchronous or asynchronous standards for the forthcoming IMT-2000 service, it is anticipated that Korean communication equipment makers will pay at least 1.74 billion dollars in royalties to foreign patentees for rights to one of these two technologies.
¡¡
¡¡According to an estimate by the Electronics and Telecommunication Research Institute(ETRI), Korean communication equipment firms will have to pay between 730 million dollars and 1.4 billion dollars to Qualcomm of the United States just for these synchronous technologies in the first four-year period after 2002. The royalty amount can also be raised if Qualcomm fails in making cross-license agreements with other patentees such as Motorola or Lucent Technologies of the U.S.
¡¡
¡¡As for asynchronous technology, ETRI analyses that domestic communication appliance makers will have to pay similar amounts in royalties to 27 patentees, including Ericsson, Nokia, Siemens, Philips, Lucent Technologies and NTT DoCoMo.
