碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 科技管理研究所 === 99 === Things of internet has become a hot topic around the world in recent years, especially in mainland China. Then, wireless sensor networks are the key in its related technologies. Therefore, this study intends to study wireless sensor networks by patent analysis, to understand wireless sensor networks on the technology development status and future development of patent, further, to analyze its technology and patentee's patent layout. To provide information for investment and R & D direction of Taiwan-related technology firms by patent analysis. This study use literature review, patent search, and patent analysis of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office database agent to obtain the management of the patent map. Though things of internet in China is so hot, China doesn’t have the corresponding patent power to develop industries of IOT alone. China still has to draw on the international companies which have technical competence and integrity patent layout to build park of IOT and develop relevant technical standards. However, Taiwan’s firms only have OEM manufacturing capacity without patent competence. We recommended that Taiwan’s firms become China’s partners rather than sellers by stationed in China-related science parks and government partner when relations across the Taiwan Straits is good.
