Summary
Once a patented technology is implemented in a standard, the use of the patent becomes »essential« for standardized goods. Such standard-essential patents have considerable competition restricting potential, which would be reinforced in innovative markets through network- and lock-in effects. How far competition law instruments can protect the user of the standards is the subject of this comparative study.
