China's Huawei sues Motorola for IPR breach

（单词翻译）

    SYDNEY, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- Huawei Technologies, on Monday asked a U.S. District Court to prevent Motorola(摩托罗拉) from illegally transferring Huawei's intellectual property (IP) to Nokia Siemens Networks ("NSN"), officials of Huawei told Xinhua in Sydney, Australia on Tuesday.
    As a leading player in providing next generation telecommunications network solutions, Huawei took this action as NSN seeks to complete its 1.2 billion U.S. dollars acquisition of Motorola's wireless¹ network business.
    Since 2000, Huawei and Motorola have had a cooperative relationship in the radio access network and core network businesses, where Motorola has resold Huawei wireless network products to customers under the Motorola name. During this period, Motorola was provided with products and confidential² Huawei IP developed by Huawei's team of more than 10,000 engineers.
    Since the July 2010 announcement（公告） by NSN of its purchase of Motorola's wireless network business, Huawei has tried to ensure that Motorola does not transfer this confidential information to NSN.
    According to officials of Huawei, Motorola's failure to adopt measures sufficient to ensure that Huawei's proprietary³ information remains⁴ confidential has compelled the company to file for the appropriate legal protection of its rights.
    The officials said Huawei respects the rights of intellectual property holders⁵ and is equally committed to the protection of its own innovations and intellectual property.
    Nearly half of Huawei's 100,000 plus employees are engaged in research and development and Huawei allocates⁶ an average of 10 percent of all revenues to R&D annually⁷. By the end of 2010, Huawei had applied⁸ for 49,040 essential patents on a global basis.（本文由在线英语听力室整理编辑）
