- mercutio2 9y agoFair, Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory. Rights holders generally have to agree to license their patents on FRAND terms to get their technology included in wireless standards, in this case CDMA and LTE. Qualcomm’s license pricing is, unusually in the industry, a percentage of the final retail price of the final device. Apple’s argument is that this is not, in fact, a reasonable and non-discriminatory price for a license to use Qualcomm’s patents.
