The hydrogen storage is one of the key technologies to achieve the successful hydrogen economy and a chain to connect hydrogen production to its utilization. In this paper, characteristics and strong candidates of hydrogen storage technologies were analyzed from the objective information of patents. Also, the hydrogen storage technology trends and gaps were assessed using statistical or qualitative analysis. In this study the patents applied in Korea, Japan, US and EU from 10 or 20 years ago to 2011 were analyzed. The result of patent analysis could be used for developing or searching for promising technology of the hydrogen storage.

기존의 부상기술 예측은 주로 정성적으로 이루어졌으나, 이는 많은 비용이 요구된다. 이에 대안으로 개발된 기술의 다양한 정보를 포함하는 특허를 활용한 정량적 방법이 있다. 기존에 특허 출원 건수를 이용한 정량적 예측 방법은 적은 출원이 이루어지는 부상기술 특허를 파악하는데 어려움이 존재한다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 선행연구에서는 추세선의 기울기를 사용하여 부상기술을 예측하였다. 그러나 출원 건수가 많은 핵심기술의 기울기가 크게 도출되므로 여전히 부상기술 파악에 어려움이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 기술들의 Patent Power를 이용하여 상기 문제를 해결하며, 연도별 Patent Power의 변화를 이용하여 기울기를 구하고 부상기술을 예측한다. 또한, 최다 출원인을 확인하고 경영전략을 제시한다. 실험으로는 AR 분야의 특허 중 USPTO에 공개된 특허만을 사용하며, 부상기술로는 G02B가 도출되었다.

Variable-gauge systems can be used for the fast and safe transportation in the railways with different gauges instead of transshipment or bogie-changing. The system will be necessary to connect the trans-Korean railway with the transcontinental railway effectively. In this paper, searches of patent information about variable-gauge system are conducted and the patent maps are analyzed to seize the overall image and trend of the technology field. The results can be a reference for determining the development direction of the variable-gauge system suitable in the north-east asian railway networks.

This research entailed collecting foreign and foreign patents on technologies for process food related ginseng, creating category of patent technology searching and conducting quantitative analysis on each technology component and schematization. A technological trend of treating or preventing multiplicity of diseases has reviewed on 6,255 domestic and foreign patents from the year 1975 to 2004. Considering the increasing number of applicant and application of patent on technology of food manufacturing and processing in the world around year 2000, it seem that these technology is developing. The related technology seems in the initial stage and common research by related technology research centers, government organization and public corporation becomes active.

Recently, it has been trending toward speed-up not only in the passenger car but in the freight car. In this paper, the trend of the market demand for the technology of railway freight cars and the development direction of other country or company were studied by analysing the patent map. The effort for developing the technology is it seems to be more strengthened especially in the parts of bogie, brake, suspension. The increasing rate of the number of patent application from the United States of America is noticeable. The results of this paper can be used for making the development plans of competitive technologies and benchmarking of them.

The development of a general appreciation for the central role of angiogenesis in cancer growth and metastasis and other disease status has led to a wide range of new therapeutic strategies. This paper reviews the domestic and international trends through technology, marketing and patent information analysis dealing with anti-angiogenic agents. This analytical research has led to the identification of new targets associated with angiogenesis, leading to the development of an extensive number of preclinical screening of antiangiogenetic agents.

Due to increased interest in safety in sports, leisure, industries, and daily life; the demand for products that protect the head is increasing. As a preparatory study for the development of head protection for head injury prevention, this study analyzed patents and utility models related to head protection products such as industrial safety helmets, vehicle helmets, and sports protection gear. For this study, 368 patents and utility models for head protection products searched through WipsOn were selected and analyzed by application year, function, application, protection area, main material, and subject. From the analytic results of this study, the quantitative and qualitative flow and characteristics of developing technology related to head protection products were identified. Through the trend of current technology, it provided data to seek the development direction in the future. The significance of this study is to secure objective data to establish a road map for creating new Intellectual Property for head protection products.

A technological trend of treating or preventing the cardiovascular diseases has reviewed on 381 domestic and foreign patents from the year 1980 to June, 2007. Primarily focused upon countries such as Korea, Japan and the United States; the leading nations concerning cardiovascular disease, this paper delved into a systematic research of the cardiovascular disease utilizing research focused database and research analysts. Korea was showing increased development in the diet and cardiovascular related areas as shown by increase in related patent caseloads and submission since the 2000. Especially within the area of food production, there had been an increase of market share by up to 50% and the frequency of patent submission had also increased. Japan was showing similar trend as Korea with its increase in research, but the only difference was that Japan was focused more upon medical supplies. With the United States, there was no real consistency with the number of patents, therefore harder to make an accurate assessment.

This study was conducted to determine the major patent and analyze the patent trend of unmanned and automated agricultural production for the open field operation. As a result of conducting a search for patent applications related to these technologies, 1,080 valid patents were selected by evaluating the relevance of the patents and removing noise patents. As a result of the country-based analysis using the selected valid patents, it was found out that the largest number of patent applications were filed in the United States with 541 cases, followed by Japan with 326 cases, the European Union with 128 cases, and Korea with 85 cases. Upon classifying the valid patents into core technology, the path generation and tracking technology accounts for 33% with 353 cases; the implementing control with environmental condition technology accounts for 22% with 236 cases; the robot design technology accounts for 21% with 228 cases; the plant and environment sensing technology accounts for 19% with 206 cases; the yield and quality monitoring technology accounts for 5% with 58 cases. Finally, 10 core patents were selected by performing a patent index evaluation. The United States registered all of the 10 core patents. The results showed that Korea falls behind in the open field-related unmanned and automated agricultural production, compared to other developed agricultural countries.
