Abstract

By analyzing the relevant patent data, the technological competitiveness of enterprises can be objectively evaluated, and the research and development priorities and the technological advantages and disadvantages of each enterprise in the same field can be compared and analyzed. It is considered to be helpful in judging the patent strategy, innovation ability, and the innovation level of enterprises, which is of great practical significance. Based on the field of the ship-integrated power system as an example, considering the Derwent patent holder code, draw the integrated technical strength of ships in the field of the distribution power system; using the ideas of the Boston matrix to measure the field has the competitive advantage of enterprises; by using the social network analysis method for each enterprise, the core technology of mining, based on the S curve of the technology life cycle, analyzes the enterprise concentration each time in order to predict the future trend of development. It can be found that China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation has the largest number of patents, followed by Fuji Electric Co. Ltd, International General Electric, Daewoo shipbuilding ocean engineering Co. Ltd and so on. Considering the patent quantity and the patent quality, the dominant and productive enterprises in this field can be distinguished. The ship-integrated power system and its related core technologies have been rapidly growing at present. The related technology patents will increase rapidly in the next few years, and more and more enterprises will participate in this field.

Highlights

  • The ship-integrated power system refers to the combination of the traditional independent mechanical propulsion system and the electric power system in the form of electric energy, which provides electric energy for ship propulsion, communication and navigation, and special operations and daily equipment by means of the electric power network, realizing the comprehensive utilization of the whole energy of ships

  • The data source of this paper is the Derwent innovation index (DII), which uses English words related to the ship-integrated power system as keywords to carry out an accurate retrieval, adopts the exhaustive retrieval strategy and makes adjustments according to the characteristics of the database, and improves the comprehensiveness of the retrieval results by using truncation symbols

  • This paper analyzes the patent data related to the ship-integrated power system in the DII database and draws the following conclusions about the technical competitiveness of enterprises in this field

Summary

Introduction

The ship-integrated power system refers to the combination of the traditional independent mechanical propulsion system and the electric power system in the form of electric energy, which provides electric energy for ship propulsion, communication and navigation, and special operations and daily equipment by means of the electric power network, realizing the comprehensive utilization of the whole energy of ships. The related researches mainly focus on the technical characteristics and application evaluation of the ship-integrated power system, and lack the discussion on the subject from the perspective of the institution around the patented technology. Based on the analysis of patent intelligence, this paper makes a statistical analysis of the number of patents filed by patentees and excavates the main technical forces It analyzes the technological competitiveness of enterprises by using the patent technology combination method. Considering the field of the ship-integrated power system [15] as an example, this paper analyzes the patent technology of the ship-integrated power system for understanding the process of technology development and analyzing the technological competitiveness and the development trend of enterprises in order to provide a reference to researchers in the step of technical analysis methods
