摘要

本文採用比較研究法及案例研究法加以比較研究和分析檢討美國與台灣有關以合理權利金計算專利侵害損害賠償的相關法規與相關判決所建立之法律原則。首先，本文介紹並說明美國有關以合理權利金計算專利侵害損害賠償的相關法規與相關判決所建立之法律原則，例如：美國專利法第284條及關於以合理權利金計算專利侵害損害賠償的各種主要類型，包括「假設協商法」、「解析法」、「整體市場價值法」的相關重要判決，並對於各判決採用的賠償方法及其建立的法律原則進行分析與檢討，再於該章之最後一節總結整理及闡釋該章內容之重點。其次，本文介紹並說明台灣有關計算專利侵害損害賠償的相關法規與相關判決所建立之法律原則，例如：專利法第97條第1項及民事訴訟法第222條第2項等規定及智慧財產法院近期的相關重要判決，並對於各判決採用的賠償方法與其建立的法律原則進行分析與檢討，再於該章之最後一節總結整理及闡釋該章內容之重點。最後，本文就前述美國與台灣有關以合理權利金計算專利侵害損害賠償的相關法規與相關判決所建立之法律原則進行彙整比較及分析檢討，期待能夠對於台灣有關以合理權利金計算專利侵害損害賠償之法制發展有所助益，並使台灣的司法實務界在處理有關專利侵害之案件而以合理權利金計算其損害賠償之金額或依民法第197條第2項所規定的不當得利而使專利權人向侵害專利權者請求返還其利益時，能夠有較為具體可行之標準可以參酌。
