Portfolio overview

Anritsu Company has been granted 280 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Anritsu Company at rank #1,479 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 51 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04B (TRANSMISSION). As a US Corporation, Anritsu Company is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Anritsu sits between Shandong University (281 patents, rank #1,475) and NOVA Chemicals (international) S.a. (280 patents, rank #1,483) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.4/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 149 grants, compared with 131 in the 2015–2019 window, a +14% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Anritsu Company's 11.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 51 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Anritsu Company against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
