关于标准必要专利许可费确定主体的研究

Research on Determining the Subject of Standard Essential Patent Licensing Fee

摘要: 随着标准必要专利纠纷数量日益增加，何为确定许可费的适宜主体这一问题值得研究。一方面，当前实践中，法院是主流的许可费确定主体，另一方面，针对法院确定许可费模式的不足，理论界提出了建立统一国际仲裁机构作为许可费确定主体的想法。由统一的国际性标准必要专利仲裁机构确定许可费确实可以弥补法院在确定标准必要专利许可费方面的固有缺陷，但是统一的国际性仲裁机构难以在短期内建立。当前，标准必要专利许可费确定纠纷还需法院解决。建议坚持市场导向，结合仲裁模式的优点，优化法院确定标准必要专利许可费的方式，保护标准必要专利人的创新动力。

Abstract: With the increasing number of standard essential patent (SEP) disputes, the question of what is the appropriate subject for determining license fee is worth studying. On the one hand, in the current practice, the court is the main body to determine the license fee. On the other hand, in view of the deficiency of the mode of determining the license fee by the court, the theoretical circle has put forward the idea of establishing a unified international arbitration institution as the main body to determine the license fee. The determination of license fees by a unified international standard essential patent arbitration institution can indeed make up for the inherent defects of courts in determining standard essential patent license fees, but it is difficult to establish a unified international arbitration institution in a short period of time. At present, the dispute of determining the standard essential patent license fee needs to be resolved by the court. It is suggested to adhere to market orientation and optimize the way for courts to determine the license fee of standard essential patent based on the advantages of arbitration mode, so as to protect the innovation motivation of standard essential patent holders.
