Abstract
Connected Car has attracted a high interest in the automotive industry. V2X is a standard and a core technology of Connected Car. There are many standard essential patents (SEP) in V2X. In addition, OSS is also used in platforms of Connected Cars. To date, there have been many patent infringement lawsuits based on essential patents in the telecommunications industry around the world, and antitrust authorities in various countries have established guidelines to curb such lawsuits. In other words, patent holders are required to promise licenses based on FRAND declarations, and patent licensees are also required to negotiate licenses in good faith. In the connected car business as well, disputes and lawsuits between patent holders and patent implementers over patents related to SEP and others are unfolding, and an IPR ecosystem is being formed through cooperation among companies to deal with these disputes and lawsuits. In this paper, the formation of IPR ecosystems around connected cars and the battles between patentees and licensees in these ecosystems are summarized and explained.
