Lenovo filed a lawsuit against AsusTek Computer Inc. and Asus Computer International, claiming that Asus' laptops infringe on four of Lenovo's patents. Lenovo is seeking damages and for Asus to stop selling Zenbook laptops and other allegedly infringing products in the US.
The lawsuit [PDF] filed November 15 in the US District Court for the Northern District of California says Lenovo's looking for a jury trial and "damages, including lost profits, caused by the alleged patent infringement." On Tuesday, Lenovo announced that it filed a patent infringement action against Asus with the US International Trade Commission (ITC).
The lawsuit centers on four patents. The first, entitled "Methods and apparatus for transmitting in resource blocks" was issued in 2021 and relates to minimizing the delay experienced during an uplink package transmission by reducing the number of steps for a wireless device to upload data.
