Qualcomm has faxed a release out tonight that is a copy of a 12/1/1989 Non-disclosure agreement with Ericsson. I have not seen it anywhere online. It is long, but they direct you to a single paragraph that is most relevant: 5. Ericsson Radio Systems hereby agrees and acknowledges that Q's specific implementation of CDMA technology and Spread Spectrum techniques in conjunction with any telephone or cellular radio telephone or mobile radio product or service("Qualcomm's CDMA Technology") is proprietary to QCOM. ERS hereby agrees that Q's CDMA Technology includes, but is not limited to, Q's techniques for soft handoff, interference control, voice activity detection, power control, multiple receivers for multipath mitigration and CDMA signal design including forward error correction, PN sequence generation, pilot carrier and CDMA synchronization. Further, in addition to Q's CDMA Technology, the implementation of such a system, including, but not limited to, interface information, shall remain Q's Confidential and Proprietary information and ERS shall not use this information in any other manner than permitted by this agreement.
