During technical standards making process, some patent holder conceal patent or join unnecessary patent.

However, they do not start lawsuit until the infringing enterprise develops to a huge level that they have to use patentees'patent. Then, patentees take advantage of infringing enterprise by a large amount of patent fee. The other phenomenon is malicious prosecution, which the patentee knows no intentional or willful torts happening to them originally, but they start a false lawsuit to damage the reputation of other competitors and reduce the level of their social evaluation. The third typical phenomenon of the abuse of the patent right is the abuse of regulatory customs procedures in the field of infringement and law enforcement. Its aim is to result competitors breaking a contract by the detention of customs, then the gainers will achieve their illegal success.
