Manual Assessment of Orange's Patent Portfolio in Relation to the VVC Standard

$10,000.00

This report presents a comprehensive essentiality analysis of Orange’s patent portfolio with respect to the VVC/H.266 standard. The analysis covered key technological areas of block-based, predictive coding, Advanced Intra/Inter Prediction Enhancements, Transformation, quantization, and filtering.

This report aims to delve into the VVC patent landscape, focusing on the essential technologies that are critical to standard compliance. Though VVC was finalised in 2020, its design anticipates future media trends, offering support for emerging applications such as 8K video, 360-degree content, light field imaging, and adaptive streaming.

An extensive search of patent databases yielded an initial dataset of around 12,000 patents in our categories of interest, and the extracted dataset is before the publication of the first version of HEVC, i.e., 2013. Of these, around 6k unique patent publications are categorised as VVC, based on their abstracts, summaries, and claims related to H.266 technology.

What you’ll get:

  • Essentiality analysis of Orange's patent portfolio

  • Relevant independent claim

  • Target entity of independent claim

  • Patents that are potentially essential to VVC standard

  • Patents that are potentially non-essential to VVC standard

Description

To identify relevant patents, comprehensive searches were conducted across multiple patent databases using a combination of search strings, IPC/CPC classifications, and VVC–specific keywords. Since the VVC standard was officially published in August 2020, the search focused exclusively on patents with a priority date on or before August 2020.

The development of VVC was marked by a surge in patent activity, particularly between 2017 and 2020, as researchers raced to contribute novel techniques that would define the future of video compression. These patents underpin a wide array of sophisticated coding tools introduced in the standard, including quad-tree plus multi-type tree (QTMT) block partitioning, advanced intra/inter prediction, affine motion compensation, and transform skip techniques, all of which collectively enable up to 50%-bit rate reduction over HEVC for the same visual quality.
