Nokia and Qualcomm had a 2001 licensing agreement that lapsed in April of 2007. According to Paul Sagawa, an analyst for Sanford C. Bernstein & Company, in the past few years Nokia has paid Qualcomm around $100 million a quarter to license its chip technology. Nokia feels that it should pay a lower rate for Qualcomm patents because it has patents that control some of the new technology.
This weekend, a judge ruled Qualcomm must pay rival Broadcom $19.3 million in damages after a jury earlier this year said Qualcomm had infringed three patents. After new phones containing infringing Qualcomm technology was blocked from U.S. import, several wireless carriers made separate deals with Broadcom.
Qualcomm headquarters in San Diego Qualcomm then began to manufacture CDMA cell phones, base stations, and chips. The first CDMA techology was standardized as IS-95. Qualcomm has since developed newer variations on the same theme, including IS-2000 and 1xEV-DO (IS-856). It formerly manufactured both CDMA cell phones and CDMA base station equipment. Qualcomm sold its base station business to Ericsson and its cell phone manufacturing to Kyocera, and has focused on developing and licensing wireless technologies and selling ASICs that implement them.
Today Qualcomm announced three new mobile chipsets that support high-speed wireless connectivity and advanced features. The three chips include one for HSPA+, one for EV-DO Rev. B, and one that combines HSPA+ and EV-DO Rev. B compatibility onto a single chip. All three ... include ARM11 processors, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, FM radios and GPS. The chips measure 12mm by 12mm and can handle 5 Megapixel cameras and TV-out, operating systems such as Windows Mobile and Linux, and accelerated graphics. The chips will be backward compatible with previous generation technologies and will be sampling in the fourth quarter of 2008.
