Guided answer
Can I get a compulsory licence, or resist one?
Section 84 lets a person interested ask the Controller for a licence under someone else's patent, but only on specific grounds and after specific steps.
Have you tried for a voluntary licence on reasonable terms, for a reasonable period?
Not sure whether this applies to your invention?
The honest answer usually needs someone to look at your actual disclosure, your timeline and the prior art. That is a conversation, not an article.
