Abstract

In this article the aim is to analyse new conflicts between technical standardization developed in Standard Setting Organization (SSO) and intellectual property rights. More precisely, we start with few past examples of conflicts (GSM and other standards) and we put in light the tremendous increase of such conflicts for 20 years and the changing firms' behaviours. The tragedy of the anticommons and the multiplication of patents in more and more complex technologies, create a difficult situation of IP management. Some solutions have been established but they seem insufficient strong. SSOs have proposed some solutions such as FRAND conditions (fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory conditions of disclosure and licensing). Competition rules could be used to sanction bad disclosure such as holdup. Unfortunately concerning 3G, the constitution of platforms and patent pool have not yet resolved the crucial problem of licensing price and royalties stacking, which could be imply high final price for consumers.
