Terms of the agreement were confidential, Nokia said on Friday. It said the deal included a one-time payment, to be booked in the fourth quarter, as well as ongoing fees.

The agreement settles all existing patent litigation between the two companies, Nokia said, adding that disputes with HTC Corp and ViewSonic over the same wi-fi technology still stood.
