U.S. Alleges China’s Hytera Stole Motorola Technology

The indictment alleges Hytera hired away Motorola employees, directing them to take Motorola’s proprietary information without authorization.

The U.S. Department of Justice has charged China’s Hytera Communications Corp. with plotting to steal intellectual property from Motorola Solutions Inc.

DOJ’s indictment filed in the Northern District of Illinois alleges that Hytera conspired with former Motorola employees to steal digital mobile radio (DMR) technology developed by the Chicago-based company.

The case is the latest skirmish in a technology war between the U.S. and China that escalated during the Trump administration and continues under the Biden administration. The U.S. has banned exports of key semiconductor technology to China and blacklisted Chinese companies suspected of using U.S. knowhow to develop the world’s first hypersonic missiles.

According to court documents, Motorola developed DMR technology it used to sell walkie-talkies globally.

The indictment alleges that Hytera hired Motorola employees, directing them to take proprietary information from Motorola without authorization. While at Motorola, some employees sent trade secrets from the company’s internal database via emails. The emails outlined plans to use the technology at Hytera, according to the statement.

DOJ has released a heavily redacted copy of the indictment along with the press statement. The names of some defendants were blacked out.

From 2007 to 2020, Hytera and the poached employees used Motorola technology to accelerate development of Hytera’s DMR products, which it sold around the world, according to the indictment. Hytera offered higher salaries and attractive benefits to lure theMotorola employees, the indictment alleged.

If convicted, Hytera faces a criminal fine of up to three times the value of the stolen trade secrets, including R&D expenses and other costs avoided by the Shenzhen-based company.No estimate of the costs was provided in the DOJ statement.

Motorola Solutions supplies telecom equipment. It succeeded the iconic Motorola Inc., which spun off its assets in 2011.

Starting in 2017, Motorola Solutions filed a series of lawsuits against Hytera in the U.S., Germany and Australia, as well as with the U.S. International Trade Commission. At the same time, Hytera filed antitrust litigation against Motorola Solutions for allegedly engaging in anti-competitive practices.

Parent Motorola Inc. pioneered mobile communications, supplying two-way radio equipment to the military, police and firefighters. The company grew to became one of the world’s largest tech companies, with manufacturing operations that included semiconductor facilities around the world. Known by its batwing brand logo, Motorola sold some of the first mobile phones and, during the 1990s, was the leading seller in the Chinese market.

Motorola was among the first multinationals to build a chip fab in China. The company “dared to go where no man has gone before,” C.D. Tam, former president for Motorola Asia Pacific, said while announcing the fab project.

China’s largest chip maker, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp., acquired theMotorola “MOS-17” fab in Tianjin after Motorola failed for nearly a decade to launch operations.

Motorola shifted to a fab-lite strategy, spinning off chip makers Freescale and ON Semiconductor. NXP later acquired Freescale; ON Semiconductor is now onsemi.

After Motorola Inc. lost $4.3 billion from 2007 to 2009, the company was split into Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions. Motorola Mobility was acquired by Chinese PC maker Lenovo in 2014.
