Abstract

In recent years, patent litigation has evolved from a traditional means of intellectual property protection to a new tool of competition, which has a profound impact on the pattern of technological innovation and industrial competition. The process of submission, trial and judgment of patent litigation is analyzed, and characteristics of litigation trials are extracted. The interprovincial panel data from mainland China is employed to empirically analyzed the impact of patent litigation on patent quality. The results show that number of trials, win rates and compensation awards of patent litigations have significant positive influence on patent quality in China, and they are key litigation features closely related to patent quality. There are regional differences in the influence of patent litigation features on patent quality. Compared with the western region, the above litigation characteristics have a more significant impact on patent quality in eastern and central region.
