摘　　要：以飞利浦CD-R专利池案的最终裁决以及美国司法部和联邦贸易委员会联合发布的《反垄断执法与知识产权:促进创新与竞争》报告为标志,美国针对专利池的反垄断政策近年来开始由相对宽松变得更为宽容,甚至走向纵容,不仅摒弃了国际公认的"公平、合理、非歧视"的专利许可原则,对专利费率不再加以限制,而且允许专利池进行强制性一揽子许可,在专利池反垄断审查中仅采"合理原则"而排除适用"当然违法原则"。此外,美国对于专利池中非必要专利的认定标准也发生了变化。受此影响,作为国际专利池的主要许可对象,我国企业将更难抵御专利池的专利费盘剥和强制性一揽子许可,在美国发起专利池反垄断诉讼的难度将进一步增大。这一影响在我国无锡多媒体诉DVD3C专利池一案在美国屡遭驳回的裁决结果中已初现端倪,我国加快建立和完善符合本国利益的专利池反垄断制度显得更为紧迫。In recent years, the antitrust policy on patent pool of the United States is becoming looser ever than before, when the policy has become more tolerant since 1995. The United States not only abandon the internationally recognized principle of ＂fair, reasonable, and nondiscriminatory＂ （FRAND）, and impose no restrictions on licensing royalty rates of patent pool, but also a- gree compulsory package licensing and only apply ＂rule of reason＂ and exclude ＂per se role＂ in the antitrust review of patent pooh. In addition, the U.S. courts have changed the identification rule of ＂non - essential patent＂ in the pool. Affected by a- bove sitution, as the major international patent lx^ol licensees, Chinese enterprises will be more difficult to resist the patent pool royalty exploitation and compulsory package licensing. The difficulty for filing an antitrust lawsuit in U.S. will also be ine^ase. The impacts could be found from the case of Wuxi Multimedia versus DVD3C patent pool in June 2008. Therefore, the establishment of China＇ s antitrust system against patent pool needs to be accelerated in behalf of national interest.
