The verdict
THE holds 10 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #27,575 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
THE 28TH Research Institute OF China Electronics Technology Group Corporation has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing THE 28TH Research Institute OF China Electronics Technology Group Corporation at rank #27,575 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 4.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in G08G (TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS). As a Foreign Corporation, THE 28TH Research Institute OF China Electronics Technology Group Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, THE sits between Tendeg Llc (10 patents, rank #27,571) and THE Society OF Japanese Aerospace Companies (10 patents, rank #27,579) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 43.0/100 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 2021 through 2025, with 10 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. THE 28TH Research Institute OF China Electronics Technology Group Corporation's 4.9 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark THE 28TH Research Institute OF China Electronics Technology Group Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
THE's 10 grants land it in the top 29% 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.
