Abstract

We analyzes representative technologies of IoT patents and reflects these results in the curriculum of IoT. In order to identify the representative technologies, the IPC codes of the patents were analyzed. Among the main category IPC codes, the most used IPC codes were H04L in Single IPC Patent with 974 cases(32.0%) and G06Q in Multiple IPC Patent with 710 cases(29.2%). As a result of classifying the IPC code into the WIPO technology classification system, the most emphasized technologies are Digital Communication, accounting for about 60.5% in the Single IPC Patent and IT Methods for Management(710 cases, 29.2%) in Multiple IPC Patent. The main points to be considered when organizing the curriculum of IoT are: ∇Emphasis on Digital Communication, ∇Expansion of Education related to IT Methods for Management(Including entrepreneurship and patent application), and ∇Consideration of subjects related to the Convergence of IoT. This research can contribute to the curriculum design of new industrial technologies such as AI and Fintech.

본 연구는 사물인터넷 관련 특허의 대표 기술을 분석한 후 이를 교육과정에 반영하기 위한 연구이다. 대표 기술을 파악하기 위해 특허문헌의 IPC 코드를 분석하였다. 단독 기술 특허에서 가장 많이 사용된 IPC 코드는 H04L로 974건(32.0%)이고, 복합 기술 특허의 경우 G06Q 710건(29.2%), H04L 396건(16.3%) 순이다. IPC 코드 분석 결과를 WIPO 기술 분류체계에 적용한 결과 단독 기술 특허에서 가장 강조되는 기술은 디지털 통신으로 약 60.5%에 이른다. 복합기술 특허에서 가장 강조되는 기술은 IT경영시스템(710건, 29.2%)과 디지털 통신(589건, 24.2%) 순이다. 본 연구를 통해 사물인터넷 교육과정 편성 및 운영시 고려해야 할 주요사항은 ∇디지털 통신 기술의 강조, ∇IT경영시스템 관련 교육의 확대(창업교육 및 특허 출원 포함), ∇사물인터넷의 확장과 융합 관련 교과목의 반영 등이다. 본 연구 방법은 인공지능과 핀테크 등 최근 대두되는 신산업 신기술 분야의 교육과정 설계 등에 기여할 수 있다.
