This document analyzes the importance of 5G patents in different industrial sectors, beyond the world of smartphones. Through its intellectual property intelligence tool, Iplytics has developed a ranking of the leading companies in 5G patents and innovation and provides some relevant data in this technological race.

20,000 MILLION EUROS OF LICENSE INCOME

Worldwide revenue from Standard Essential Patent (SEP) licenses for 5G stood at about $ 20 billion – about € 17.8 billion – in 2020. In addition, the document points out that analysts foresee a strong increase in both the number of SEP 5G, and the revenue generated through them, in industries such as automotive, energy or healthcare.

According to Iplytics, 5G will cause half of the world’s data traffic in the next five years to no longer come from human use, but will be generated by vehicles, machines, meters, sensors, medical instruments or various types of connected devices online without any human interaction.

Standards such as 5G allow the handling of large amounts of data to connect industrial machinery and robots, thus allowing remote control, monitoring and repair actions, as well as industrial automation. From smart grids to drone control, energy and utilities, companies will rely on standards to handle connectivity demands.
