Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyze patent licensing agreements signed by a patent holder and oligopolistic firms in practical situations, and examine the stability of patent pools that are formed by multiple patent holders. The main results of this research show the number of licensees and the licensing policies that most benefit a patent holder in various patent licensing problems. Furthermore, by focusing on licensing revenue allocation in patent pools, we propose the condition under which different types of patent holders form stable patent pools.
