Glossary (1/2)
• Technology Relevance™ (TR)The relevance of a patent for technical development. It is measured by looking at worldwide prior art citations to the patent (similar to how Google rates web pages by the links they get from other web pages). Internal TR is based on the citations made by patent families of the patent owner himself, external TR is based on citations made by patent families of third parties only.
• Market Coverage™ (MC)The existence of active patent rights to the invention in world markets. If a larger market size is protected, Market Coverage™ is higher and the patent thus has a higher Competitive Impact™.
• Competitive Impact™ (CI)The economic and strategic value of patents as measured by the product of their Technology Relevance™ and Market Coverage™. Competitive Impact™ is stated relative to other patents in the same field (e.g. a value of three means that the patent is three times as important as the average patent in the field).
• Patent Asset Index™ (PAI)The measurement of the overall strength of a patent portfolio. It is calculated as the sum of the Competitive Impact™ of all patents contained in the portfolio.

Glossary (2/2)
• Active patentsPatent families comprising at least one pending application or a granted patent, which is not lapsed, withdrawn, invalidated or rejected at the respective date (according to Inpadocdatabase). “Active” means at least one granted patent or a pending patent application exists (at that date NOT (yet) rejected, withdrawn, lapsed, invalidated, etc.)
• Reporting DateReference date for the determination of certain patent portfolio parameters as they would have been at that “reporting date” back in history.
• Patent OwnerMost probable owner of the aggregated patent portfolio, according to Inpadoc database as well as to a consolidated patent owner database provided by PatentSight.
