The verdict
Civil holds 6 US patents across 8 technology areas, rank #39,580 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Civil Aviation Flight University Of China has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2024 and 2025, placing Civil Aviation Flight University Of China at rank #39,580 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G08G (TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS). As a Foreign Corporation, Civil Aviation Flight University Of China is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Civil sits between Cirrus Logic International (uk) Limited (6 patents, rank #39,576) and Cleana Inc. (6 patents, rank #39,584) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 40.9/100 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. Historical data spans 2024 through 2025, with 6 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign 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. Civil Aviation Flight University Of China's 7.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 8 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Civil Aviation Flight University Of China against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Civil's 6 grants land it in the top 34% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
