Does more volume mean deeper claims for Propagation?
Each dot is one of Propagation’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). Propagation’s own 25.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Propagation's grants concentrate
Propagation Research Associates LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under H04B (Transmission). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Propagation sits between Pro1 IAQ Inc. and Prostacare Pty Ltd.
Propagation's three-year grant acceleration
Propagation Research Associates LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
