Abstract: With the constant development of power, information and other technologies, the advantages of unmanned ships are emerging in anti-mine, anti-submarine, electronic warfare, maritime security, maritime interception, and other military fields. This paper describes the development of unmanned ships and power technology and clarifies that the integrated power system has become a major trend of medium and large-sized unmanned ships. It also introduces the application of integrated power system in manned and unmanned platforms, and proposes that issues like size, weight, and control of vibration and noise are of essential for the integrated power system for unmanned platforms. In the end, this paper summarizes the trend of integrated power technology for unmanned platforms and identifies the key scientific problems of integrated power technology on unmanned platform, namely the intelligent operation of integrated power system, high-performance motor materials, information perception of complex motor system, power electronic device and system, high-performance power conversion and efficient energy storage.
