Once again, tech giant Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has to face a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Sweden-based networking and telecommunications company Ericsson, Reuters reported. There are a series of issues ongoing between the two companies related to a royalty payment for the use of Ericsson's 5G wireless patents in iPhones.  Background  The two companies negotiated over the renewal of a seven-year licensing contract for telecoms patents, which was signed first in 2015, but in vain. As a result, both companies sued each other in the U.S.  Notably, Apple was sued by Ericsson in October, who accused the company of reducing the royalty rates inappropriately.
