Of course anyone could see that Qualcomms' patent pertaining to a "Closed loop power control in a CDMA system" would obviously be offset by the Ericsson patent "Buzzer with Zener diode in discharge path".. Actually, ETSI would probably assign the ERICY
Zener patent a slightly higher value than the Power Control patent.. Resulting in the need for Qualcomm to PAY ERICY a royalty in the exchange..


pcstel,
i admire your technical expertise. your description is way over my head.

i believe perhaps the main reason for the QCOM spinoff is to leave the mother ship as a pure IP company. once completed, QCOM should require, imho, no cross-licensing.
the resultant chip company may.
i also heard Dr J's comments that the QCOM royalties remain the same regardless of CDMA flavor rolled out.

i was thinking last night about how often i see companies referred to as the next QCOM around the message boards....if my understanding of the above is correct, QCOM is the next QCOM.
