Samsung Electronics claims that Ericsson demanded billions more for patent licenses after their license agreement expired in 2007.
The company made its claim in a document filed with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) on Monday.
Ericsson wants the ITC to ban the import of Samsung’s Galaxy S III, Galaxy Note, and Galaxy Tab 7.7, as well as other Samsung products including TVs. Ericsson alleged that the products infringe on its patents in a complaint filed with the ITC in December (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9234253/Ericsson_wants_US_import_ban_on_Samsung_products), shortly after it has filed two lawsuits (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9234041/Ericsson_sues_Samsung_in_U.S._for_patent_infringem ent) against Samsung in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
Technologies at issue relate to electronic devices for wireless communications and data transfer including radio frequency technology and standardized communication protocols including GSM, GPRS, EDGE, W-CDMA, LTE, and 802.11 Wi-Fi.
