With more and more smart devices in the room, it becomes more and more complicated to manage and control so many devices. At this time, a device is needed to manage and control so many smart devices in the house. In most cases, a traditional gateway is used to connect indoor devices through wireless communication, and then broadcast to search for the corresponding target gateway through the corresponding mobile phone app, and display the downstream device information and manage the downstream devices. At the same time, with Huawei's open source OpenHarmony operating system, the system provides multi-core technology, micro-kernel mechanism, distributed soft bus and other technologies, making it easier for smart home devices equipped with OpenHarmony operating system to achieve interconnection and management.

After the NFC module of the smart gateway reads the configuration information, it sends it to the second processor for protocol parsing. After the protocol parsing is completed, the configuration information is sent to the corresponding downstream device through the short-distance communication protocol.
