Does more volume mean deeper claims for China?

Each dot is one of China’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). China’s own 15.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where China's grants concentrate

China Mobile Communication Co., Ltd Research Institute is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 77.6% of grants classified under H04W (Wireless Communication Networks). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (27 grants) versus a trough of 6 in 2020. By volume, China sits between Angel Playing Cards Co., Ltd. and Hach Company.

China's three-year grant acceleration

China Mobile Communication Co., Ltd Research Institute shows 74 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
