How to Submit 4G Patents for Review

The Open Patent Alliance (OPA) has issued a call for patents for any essential patents related to WiMAX, with the intention of creating a patent pool. Establishing this patent pool is an important step in the OPA’s plans to create a fair and transparent Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) licensing structure that will accelerate the global adoption of WiMAX, while simultaneously fostering broader choice and lower costs for WiMAX technology, devices and applications.

This significantly lowers the “barriers to entry” for those companies wishing to develop innovative technologies using WiMAX and helps to ensure the successful and broad adoption of 4G wireless.
