The United Kingdom's Supreme Court on Wednesday unanimously dismissed appeals by China's Huawei and ZTE in patent disputes over mobile data technology with Unwired Planet International and Conversant Wireless.

The first appeal concerned an action brought by Unwired against Huawei for the infringement of five UK patents, which Unwired had acquired from Ericsson and were said to be essential in mobile telecoms.An English court had previously ruled that two of the patents were valid and essential, and in a subsequent trial found Unwired's licence terms were justified and enforceable.

Huawei and ZTE argued that the English Courts did not have jurisdiction to determine the validity of foreign patents. Conversant's CEO Boris Teksler said he was"very pleased" by the outcome, which the firm said would have"significant implications worldwide" for standard-essential-patent licensing.
