A US company with a massive wireless patent portfolio has lodged a complaint with the US International Trade Commission (ITC) against Chinese telecom equipment giants Huawei Technologies Co and ZTE Corp alleging unfair trade practices.
The complaint by InterDigital Inc alleges the companies import and sell 3G wireless devices in the US - including mobile phones, USB devices, mobile wireless hotspots, tablets and components - that infringe on several of its patents.
In conjunction with the ITC complaint, InterDigital filed a suit in US District Court in Delaware alleging the same infringements.
