ASUS has just filed a new lawsuit against Samsung. The company is alleging that the South Korean tech giant has infringed on its wireless communication technology patents that are based on 4G and 5G networking.
ASUS lawsuit targets 4G/5G smartphones like the Galaxy Z Flip 5
The news arrives from a DigiTimes report. ASUS is apparently suing Samsung because it violated its wireless communications technology on smartphones like the Galaxy Z Flip 5. The Taiwanese electronics maker filed the lawsuit after it failed to reach an agreement regarding the licensing fees for its patent with Samsung. The patent was filed by the ASUS Technology Licensing and Innovative Sonic Limited, which owns all of the brand’s patents. This lawsuit was filed against Samsung Electronics in the Eastern District of Texas (U.S. Patent No. 10,187,878).
The patent describes a “method and apparatus for improving a transmission using a configured resource in a wireless communication system” and even mentions Samsung’s 4G and 5G smartphones. According to RPX Insight, the patent is a standard essential patent and the patent will usually take years before the lawsuit gets settled. It remains to be seen what actions both companies will take now. So stick around for more as we will be providing updates when additional information is available regarding this matter.
