Who holds the most LTE Patents?

This is something that needs actual investigation into the ETSI database but Samsung claims that it has more than 3,600 standard essential patents (SEP) for the LTE and LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) technology, citing a 2014 report by Taiwan's intellectual property office. That is 17 percent of all LTE-related SEPs.

It also claims that LG Electronics and Qualcomm followed Samsung Electronics in second place with 14 percent of SEPs, each. Ericsson, Panasonic, Nokia and NTT DoCoMo hold the third spot with 5 percent, each.

So 70% patents held by these 7 companies.

Take these numbers with a pinch of salt.
