I suspect the licence fee is related to the asking price for the item concerned
rather than a fixed fee for the wonderful invention. Also, it depends how many
other standards and wonderful inventions the item has to support. Some say that
a modest smartphone requires dozens of standards-based patents.
Also, they tend to be global standards and that is an awful lot of different
jurisdictions and legal systems. Also, it's a whole lot of standards and patents
bearing in mind the breadth of standards set by, for instance, the ITU.

That way, they would be managed by someone with an incentive
to get the best value for the owner, but would mean it could
limit accusations of unfairness between parties for reasons
unrelated to product type and cost.
