UK court: HTC One infringes on Nokia patent

A number of HTC devices including its flagship HTC One smartphone infringe on a Nokia mobile networks standards patent, a U.K. court ruled Wednesday.

HTC sued Nokia, trying to get the patent declared invalid in the U.K. as a defensive tactic, but failed to achieve this when Sir Richard David Arnold, the judge in charge of the patents court of the England and Wales High Court ruled Wednesday that the patent is valid and was infringed by HTC. The patent describes a ?modulator structure for a transmitter and a mobile station.?

HTC will appeal the ruling immediately, an HTC spokesman said in an emailed statement.

The ruling is a significant development in Nokia?s dispute with HTC, said Nokia spokesman Mark Durrant in an email.
