It was further claimed that the latest iPhone 12 series uses these infringing transceiver technology while the lineup incorporates the 5G modems provided by Qualcomm.
The lawsuit has targeted Qualcomm’s SMR526, SDR865, AND SDX55M as infringing products. The party is suing both tech giants is Red Rock, who owns these patents. The lawsuit also alleges that both Apple and Qualcomm had prior knowledge of the existing patent yet still continued the infringement, and the lawsuit alleged that Qualcomm had received notices of the existence of the patent at least three times between the years 2008 and 2011.
