Huawei has won a decisive victory in the European Unified Patent Court (UPC) over US-based Netgear, with the court ruling that Netgear has infringed on Huawei's Wi-Fi 6 patent. The patent in question, EP3611989, is a standard essential patent (SEP) that is a crucial component of the Wi-Fi 6 standard. This is the third SEP ruling in the UPC's history, and the second injunction granted by the Munich branch of the court. The injunction covers Germany, France, and Italy, which are the three largest UPC jurisdictions. Netgear had previously faced the risk of having an antisuit injunction (ASI) issued by a US District Court against Huawei, but the US court ultimately declined to issue the injunction. The ruling is a significant victory for Huawei, which has long maintained that its SEP portfolio is essential to the development of future wireless technologies. In related news, the Chinese Supreme Court has issued its first-ever antirॉन court ruling, ordering Microsoft to withdraw its ASI application against Huawei in a separate patent dispute. The ruling is seen as a significant development in the global patent wars between Huawei and its rivals.
