The U.S. International Trade Commission has determined that Huawei, Nokia, and ZTE did not infringe on six InterDigital patents, and it invalidated a seventh patent, clearing the companies of any wrongdoing.
The ITC upheld the preliminary ruling made earlier this year. ZTE said it was pleased with the ITC’s decision, while Nokia and Huawei have yet to file public responses. InterDigital’s attempt to ban the import of certain ZTE, Huawei, and Nokia devices has been nixed.
InterDigital, which is a patent-holding firm, filed similar complaints against Samsung.
