USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 190 granted patents across 39 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H03F (AMPLIFIERS).
The verdict
Richwave holds 190 US patents across 39 technology areas, rank #2,082 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Richwave Technology Corp. has been granted 190 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Richwave Technology Corp. at rank #2,082 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 39 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in H03F (AMPLIFIERS). As a Foreign Corporation, Richwave Technology Corp. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Richwave sits between Bissell Homecare, Inc. (190 patents, rank #2,078) and Volvo Lastvagnar AB (190 patents, rank #2,086) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.8/100 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 140 grants, compared with 50 in the 2015–2019 window, a +180% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Richwave Technology Corp.'s 17.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 39 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Richwave Technology Corp. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Richwave's 190 grants land it in the top 5% 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.
