SAN FRANCISCO — A U.S. federal judge issued a preliminary ruling requiring Qualcomm license some of its modem IC patents to competitors including Intel and Samsung.
The ruling, issued by U.S. District Court Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose, was made in a case involving the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which last year sued Qualcomm for engaging in anti-competitive tactics to maintain what the FTC called a monopoloy in the supply of baseband chips.
