From Associated Press

Six makers of telecommunications equipment filed antitrust complaints with European regulators against Qualcomm Inc., claiming that the San Diego-based wireless technology company was refusing to license essential patents on fair terms.

Nokia, Ericsson, Broadcom Corp., NEC Corp., Texas Instruments Inc. and Panasonic Mobile Communications Co. asked the European Commission to investigate and stop Qualcomm’s alleged abuse of European Union competition rules.

Qualcomm called the complaint “factually inaccurate and legally meritless.”
