Portfolio overview

Luxtera, Inc. has been granted 173 US utility patents between 2015 and 2022, placing Luxtera, Inc. at rank #2,268 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04B (TRANSMISSION). As a US Corporation, Luxtera, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Luxtera sits between Berry Plastics Corporation (173 patents, rank #2,264) and Yonwoo Co., Ltd. (173 patents, rank #2,272) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.5/100 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 66 grants, compared with 107 in the 2015–2019 window, a -38% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Luxtera, Inc.'s 21.8 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Luxtera, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Luxtera's 173 grants land it in the top 18% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Luxtera ranks #2,268 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in H04B - see who else leads that technology area. H04B leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
