[0081] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0082] As an example, when deploying a smart home scene, a user can have different brands of smart home devices in the same smart home scene, and different brands of smart home devices are often difficult to achieve unified control, and the smart home devices cannot achieve interconnection and intercommunication, which limits the overall performance and user experience of the smart home system.

[0083] To this end, in the present application, in the process of managing and controlling smart home devices, especially in the case of data interaction between different smart home devices, the gateway can receive device data sent by a first smart home device, the device data at least including device identification, the first smart home device being a smart home device based on a first communication protocol for communication, and identifying the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device based on the device identification, and then converting the device data into target data in an internal data format according to the target device attribute, the internal data format being a standard format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device in the smart home system, and then sending the target data to a second smart home device, controlling the second smart home device to perform a device operation corresponding to the target data, the second smart home device being a smart home device based on a second communication protocol for communication, the first communication protocol and the second communication protocol being different communication protocols, so that when smart home devices based on different communication protocols need to interact, the gateway can convert the device data that needs to interact, and overcome the communication protocol difference between different smart home devices based on the converted data, realize unified control, and ensure efficient, stable interconnection and intercommunication between smart home devices, greatly facilitate the user's control of smart home devices, and ensure the user's experience.

[0084] Referring to Figure 1 , a step flowchart of a device management method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, applied to a smart home gateway, the smart home gateway being deployed in a smart home system, the smart home system further including smart home devices, the smart home devices including smart home devices based on different communication protocols, specifically including the following steps:

[0085] Step 101, receiving device data sent by a first smart home device, the device data at least including device identification, the first smart home device being a smart home device based on a first communication protocol for communication;

[0086] In an embodiment of the present application, for a smart home system, it can include a corresponding smart home gateway and a plurality of different smart home devices, and a user can configure different brands, different models, and different types of smart home devices in the process of deploying the smart home system, so in the smart home system, it can include smart home devices based on different communication protocols for data communication.

[0087] For example, a smart home device based on a first communication protocol for data communication, a smart home device based on a second communication protocol for data communication, and a smart home device based on a third communication protocol for data communication, etc. Optionally, the communication protocol can include WiFi (Wireless Fidelity), Zigbee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth protocol, Thread protocol, NFC (Near Field Communication), and IR (Infrared Communication), etc., which is not limited by the present application.

[0088] Among them, for the smart home gateway, it can serve as the core hub of the smart home system, responsible for data communication between different smart home devices, user devices and smart home devices. Optionally, the smart home gateway can integrate multiple standard communication protocol interfaces, such as WiFi, Zignee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth protocol, Thread protocol, NFC and IR, etc., so that the smart home gateway can communicate with smart home devices of different communication protocols. At the same time, in order to improve the stability and reliability of the system, redundant power supply design can be used to ensure that the standby power supply of the smart home gateway can take over in time when the main power supply of the smart home gateway fails, and ensure the continuous operation of the smart home system.

[0089] Before managing and controlling the smart home devices of the smart home system, the communication connection between the smart home gateway and each smart home device can be established first, so as to realize data interaction based on the established data transmission channel. Among them, the smart home gateway can discover newly connected smart home devices through automatic scanning and device broadcasting, etc., which is not limited by the present application.

[0090] For the automatic scanning process, the smart home gateway can periodically send a probe signal to the communication network where the smart home gateway is located, then in response to receiving the first broadcast information sent by the first target smart home device to the probe signal, the first basic information corresponding to the target smart home device is extracted from the first broadcast information, then the first basic information is compared with the preset device feature library, based on the comparison result, the first device type and the first control configuration information corresponding to the first target smart home device are determined, the first control configuration information at least includes information representing the control mode and control parameter requirements of the smart home device, then the first target smart home device is added to the device list of the smart home gateway, and the mapping relationship between the first device type, the first control configuration information and the target smart home device is established.

[0091] The first basic information at least includes one of the first brand information, the first device type and the first function information, and the smart home gateway can search for corresponding information in the device characteristic library based on the first brand information, the first device type and the first function information, and determine whether the smart home device to be accessed to the communication network can be found. Specifically, if at least one of the first brand information, the first device type and the first function information exists in the device characteristic library, that is, the smart home gateway finds the corresponding smart home device in the device characteristic library, the smart home gateway can further send identity authentication information to the first target smart home device, and receive identity information sent by the first target smart home device. The identity information at least includes a device serial number and an authentication key. If the authentication key is authenticated, the device serial number is recorded, and the first device type and the first control configuration information corresponding to the first target smart home device are extracted from the device characteristic library. Before formally accessing the first target smart home device to the communication network, the smart home gateway also needs to perform identity authentication on the first target smart home device, so as to ensure the security of the overall data of the smart home system.

[0092] For example, when the smart home device accesses the smart home communication network, the corresponding device serial number and the pre-set authentication key can be sent to the smart home gateway. The smart home gateway allows the smart home device to access the smart home system only after verification. Correspondingly, for the user terminal, when logging in to the mobile application, the user needs to input authentication information such as username and password to ensure that only a legal user can control the device.

[0093] In addition, for the device broadcast process, the smart home gateway can respond to the reception of the second broadcast information broadcasted by the second target smart home device, extract the second basic information corresponding to the target smart home device from the second broadcast information, compare the second basic information with the preset device characteristic library, determine the second device type and the second control configuration information corresponding to the second target smart home device based on the comparison result, then add the second target smart home device to the device list of the smart home gateway, and establish a mapping relationship between the second device type, the second control configuration information and the target smart home device. Correspondingly, the smart home gateway can also perform identity authentication on the smart home device actively accessing the communication network, so that the smart home gateway also needs to perform identity authentication on the smart home device before formally accessing the smart home device to the communication network, so as to ensure the security of the overall data of the smart home system.

[0094] Through the above process, the smart home device is accessed to the smart home system, so that the smart home gateway can perform data interaction based on the established communication connection in the subsequent process of managing the smart home device.

[0095] In some examples, assume that the smart home gateway is in a communication network containing multiple smart home devices, including smart light bulbs, smart sockets, smart thermostats, etc. The gateway needs to automatically scan and identify these devices and connect them to the smart home system.

[0096] For the automatic scanning process, the corresponding processing procedure can include:

[0097] Step 1: Send a probe signal:

[0098] The smart home gateway periodically sends a probe signal (e.g., a Zigbee, Z-Wave, or WiFi broadcast signal) to the communication network it is in to detect whether there are new devices connected to the network.

[0099] Step 2: Receive first broadcast information:

[0100] Assume that the first target smart home device is a smart light bulb (brand "Brand 1", device type "smart light bulb", function "dimming, color adjustment"). After receiving the probe signal, the device sends the gateway first broadcast information, the content of which is as follows:

[0101] First brand information: Brand 1;

[0102] First device type: smart light bulb;

[0103] First function information: dimming, color adjustment.

[0104] Step 3: Extract first basic information:

[0105] The gateway extracts the following basic information from the first broadcast information:

[0106] First brand information: Brand 1;

[0107] First device type: smart light bulb;

[0108] First function information: dimming, color adjustment.

[0109] Step 4: Compare with device feature library:

[0110] The gateway compares the extracted basic information with the preset device feature library. Assume that the device feature library contains the following information:

[0111] Brand: Brand 1;

[0112] Device type: smart light bulb;

[0113] Function: dimming, color adjustment.

[0114] Control configuration information:

[0115] Control mode: Zigbee protocol;

[0116] Control parameter requirement: brightness range 0-100, color temperature range 2700K-6500K.

[0117] Step 5: Determine device type and control configuration information:

[0118] The comparison result shows that there is device information matching the first broadcast information in the device feature library. Therefore, the gateway determines:

[0119] First device type: smart bulb;

[0120] First control configuration information:

[0121] Control mode: Zigbee protocol;

[0122] Control parameter requirement: brightness range 0-100, color temperature range 2700K-6500K.

[0123] Step 6: Add to device list and establish mapping relationship:

[0124] The gateway adds the first target smart home device (brand ① smart bulb) to the device list and establishes the following mapping relationship:

[0125] Device type: smart bulb;

[0126] Control configuration information: control mode (Zigbee), control parameters (brightness 0-100, color temperature 2700K-6500K);

[0127] Target device: brand ① smart bulb.

[0128] After finding the corresponding smart home device in the device feature library, identity authentication can be performed on the smart home device, which can specifically include:

[0129] Step 1: Send identity verification information:

[0130] The gateway sends identity verification information to the first target smart home device, requiring the device to provide identity information.

[0131] Step 2: Receive identity information:

[0132] The first target smart home device (brand ① smart bulb) responds and sends the following identity information:

[0133] Device serial number: brand ①-LIGHT-001;

[0134] Authentication key: 1234567890ABCDEF.

[0135] Step 3: Verify the authentication key

[0136] The gateway compares the received authentication key with the pre-stored authentication key. Assuming the authentication keys match, the gateway records the device serial number:

[0137] Device serial number: Brand 1 - LIGHT - 001.

[0138] Step 4: Complete identity authentication

[0139] After identity authentication is passed, the gateway officially connects the first target smart home device (Brand 1 smart bulb) to the communication network and records its identity information.

[0140] For the process of device broadcasting, the corresponding processing process can include:

[0141] Step 1: Receive second broadcast information

[0142] Assuming that the second target smart home device is a smart socket (brand "Brand 2", device type "smart socket", and function "switch control"). The device actively broadcasts second broadcast information to the gateway, with the following content:

[0143] Second brand information: Brand 2;

[0144] Second device type: smart socket;

[0145] Second function information: switch control.

[0146] Step 2: Extract second basic information:

[0147] The gateway extracts the following basic information from the second broadcast information:

[0148] Second brand information: Brand 2;

[0149] Second device type: smart socket;

[0150] Second function information: switch control.

[0151] Step 3: Compare device feature library:

[0152] The gateway compares the extracted basic information with the device feature library. Assuming the device feature library contains the following information:

[0153] Brand: Brand 2;

[0154] Device type: smart socket;

[0155] Function: switch control.

[0156] Control configuration information:

[0157] Control mode: through WiFi protocol;

[0158] Control parameter requirement: switch state (on / off).

[0159] Step 4: Determine device type and control configuration information:

[0160] The comparison result shows that there is device information matching the second broadcast information in the device feature library. Therefore, the gateway determines:

[0161] Second device type: smart socket;

[0162] Second control configuration information:

[0163] Control mode: through WiFi protocol;

[0164] Control parameter requirement: switch state (on / off).

[0165] Step 5: Add to device list and establish mapping relationship:

[0166] The gateway adds the second target smart home device (brand 2 smart socket) to the device list and establishes the following mapping relationship:

[0167] Device type: smart socket;

[0168] Control configuration information: control mode (WiFi), control parameter (switch state);

[0169] Target device: brand 2 smart socket.

[0170] Step 6: Identity authentication

[0171] The gateway performs identity authentication on the second target smart home device, the process is similar to the first target device, ensuring that the device is legally connected.

[0172] In addition, for the identity verification of user devices, it is assumed that the user logs in to the smart home system through the mobile application and needs to input the following authentication information: username: user123; password: password123, so that the gateway verifies the username and password, allowing the user to control the smart home device through the mobile application

[0173] Through the above process, the smart home gateway can automatically scan and identify new devices, extract basic information from device broadcast information, and compare with the device feature library to determine the type and control configuration information of the device, establish mapping relationship, and perform identity authentication on the device to ensure that the device is legally connected, and authenticate the user terminal to ensure that only legal users can control the device.

[0174] In the process of managing the smart home device, the smart home gateway can receive device data sent by a first smart home device, the device data at least including a device identifier, the first smart home device being a smart home device communicating based on a first communication protocol. The device identifier can be used to identify a unique smart home device, and the smart home gateway can determine the communication protocol used by the smart home device based on the device identifier.

[0175] For example, assuming that the first smart home device is a temperature sensor, after accessing the communication network of the smart home, it can periodically or in real time transmit corresponding temperature data to the smart home gateway, and carry the corresponding device identifier in the temperature data, so that the smart home gateway determines the communication protocol used by the temperature sensor based on the device identifier, such as WiFi, Zignee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth protocol, Thread protocol, NFC and IR, and further processes the device data transmitted by the temperature sensor based on the determined communication protocol.

[0176] Step 102, identifying the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device based on the device identifier;

[0177] After receiving the corresponding device data, the smart home gateway can extract the corresponding device identifier from the device data, and identify the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device based on the device identifier. The target device attribute can uniquely identify the device type and brand of the smart home device.

[0178] The device identifier at least includes one of a MAC (Media Access Control Address, Media Access Control Address) address and a device model code, and the smart home gateway can identify the first smart home device by using the MAC address and / or the device model code to determine the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device.

[0179] It should be noted that for a smart home device, one of the MAC address and the device model code can be used to accurately identify the corresponding smart home device, so as to determine the target device attribute representing the type and brand of the smart home device. It can be understood that since different brands and different types of smart home devices can use different communication protocols for data communication, by determining the target device attribute of the smart home device, the brand and type information of the smart home device can be accurately identified, so as to further determine the communication protocol used by the smart home device.

[0180] In step 103, the device data is converted into target data in an internal data format according to the target device attribute, the internal data format being a standard format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device in the smart home system.

[0181] After the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device is determined, the device data can be converted into target data in an internal data format according to the target device attribute, the internal data format being a standard format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device in the smart home system. By converting the data into a standard format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device, the defect that different smart home devices cannot interact with each other due to differences in communication protocols is effectively overcome, unified control is achieved, efficient and stable interconnection and intercommunication between smart home devices are ensured, great convenience is provided for user control of smart home devices, and user experience is ensured.

[0182] In the embodiment of the present application, the target device attribute at least includes target brand information and target device type, the smart home gateway can determine a target data packet structure corresponding to the target brand information and the target device type, the target data packet structure is adapted to the first communication protocol, then the target mapping relationship corresponding to the first smart home device is obtained, and the target device type and the target brand information are compared with the target mapping relationship respectively, the target control configuration information corresponding to the first smart home device is determined, then the key information corresponding to the device data is extracted from the target data packet structure according to the target control configuration information, and the key information is added to the preset data packet structure to obtain target data in an internal data format corresponding to the device data, the preset data packet structure being a data structure used for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device, so that by defining an internal data format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device in the smart home system, the defect that different smart home devices cannot interact with each other due to differences in communication protocols is effectively overcome, unified control is achieved, efficient and stable interconnection and intercommunication between smart home devices are ensured, great convenience is provided for user control of smart home devices, and user experience is ensured.

[0183] In a specific implementation, the smart home gateway can first determine a target data packet structure suitable for the first communication protocol according to the target brand information and the target device type. For example, if the device uses the Zigbee protocol, the gateway can determine the data packet structure of the Zigbee protocol. Then, the smart home gateway can further obtain the target mapping relationship of the first smart home device, and compare the target device type and the target brand information with the mapping relationship to determine the target control configuration information. For example, if the device is an "XX smart bulb", the gateway can extract its control configuration information (such as control mode, control parameter) from the mapping relationship. Then, the smart home gateway can extract the key information of the device data from the target data packet structure according to the target control configuration information. For example, the brightness, color, etc. of the light are extracted from the Zigbee data packet. And the extracted key information is added to the preset data packet structure to obtain the internal data format corresponding to the device data. Wherein, the preset data packet structure is a unified data structure used by the smart home gateway to interact with the device. Through the above process, based on the definition of the unified internal data format, the problem that different devices cannot interact due to the difference in communication protocols is overcome, and efficient and stable interconnection and intercommunication are realized.

[0184] In some examples, it is assumed that the smart home gateway connects the following two devices:

[0185] Brand 1 smart bulb (uses Zigbee protocol).

[0186] Brand 2 temperature controller (uses WiFi protocol).

[0187] The gateway needs to standardize the data of these two devices into a unified internal data format in order to realize unified control. Among them, the data processing of the smart bulb

[0188] Target device attributes include: brand 1 + smart bulb;

[0189] Target data packet structure: data packet structure suitable for Zigbee protocol.

[0190] Target mapping relationship:

[0191] Control mode: through Zigbee protocol;

[0192] Control parameter: brightness range 0-100, color temperature range 2700K-6500K.

[0193] Based on the above data, the smart home gateway can extract the following data from the Zigbee data packet:

[0194] Brightness: 75;

[0195] Color: warm_white.

[0196] Next, the extracted data can be standardized into an internal data format:

[0197] Add key information to the preset data packet structure to generate the following internal data format:

[0198] {

[0199] "device_id": "light_001",

[0200] "type": "light",

[0201] "status": "on",

[0202] "brightness": 75,

[0203] "color": "warm_white",

[0204] "protocol": "Zigbee"

[0205] }

[0206] In addition, data processing for brand ② thermostat

[0207] Target device attributes: brand ② + thermostat

[0208] Target data packet structure: data packet structure adapted to WiFi protocol

[0209] Target mapping relationship:

[0210] Control method: through WiFi protocol

[0211] Control parameters: temperature range 18-30℃, mode (heating / cooling)

[0212] Based on the above data, the smart home gateway can extract from the WiFi data packet:

[0213] Temperature: 22.5℃

[0214] Mode: heating

[0215] Next, the extracted data can be standardized into an internal data format:

[0216] Add key information to the preset data packet structure to generate the following internal data format:

[0217] {

[0218] "device_id": "thermostat_001",

[0219] "type": "thermostat",

[0220] "status": "auto",

[0221] "temperature": 22.5,

[0222] "mode": "heating",

[0223] "protocol": "WiFi"

[0224] }

[0225] Through the above process, the smart home gateway can interact seamlessly between devices of different communication protocols (such as Zigbee, WiFi, etc.) through a standardized internal data format, and the gateway only needs to process a unified internal data format and does not need to write control logic for each communication protocol, and the user can control all devices through a unified interface (such as a mobile application, etc.) without needing to care about the specific communication protocol of the device. In addition, the unified data format reduces the complexity of data analysis and processing, and improves the stability of the system.

[0226] In step 104, the target data is sent to a second smart home device, and the second smart home device is controlled to perform a device operation corresponding to the target data. The second smart home device is a smart home device that communicates based on a second communication protocol. The first communication protocol and the second communication protocol are different communication protocols.

[0227] After obtaining the target data in the internal data format that can be used for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home device through data conversion, the smart home gateway can send the target data to the corresponding second smart home device to control the second smart home device to perform the corresponding device operation. The second smart home device is a smart home device that communicates based on a second communication protocol. The first communication protocol and the second communication protocol are different communication protocols. Therefore, when smart home devices based on different communication protocols need to interact, the gateway can convert the device data that needs to interact, and overcome the communication protocol differences between different smart home devices based on the converted data, realize unified control, and ensure efficient and stable interconnection and intercommunication between smart home devices, providing great convenience for user control of smart home devices and ensuring user experience.

[0228] In addition, the smart home gateway and the smart home device establish an encrypted channel, and in the process of transmitting data, the smart home gateway can encrypt the target data to obtain corresponding encrypted data, and then send the encrypted data to the second smart home device through the encrypted channel, thereby preventing data from being eavesdropped and attacked, and ensuring the security of the data.

[0229] In addition, the user can also manage the smart home device through the user device, specifically, the smart home gateway can receive the device processing instruction for the smart home device sent by the user device, and then process the smart home device in the device list according to the device processing instruction. Wherein, the device processing instruction is at least one of device adding instruction, device deleting instruction and device modifying instruction.

[0230] In addition, the user can also manage the smart home device through the user device, specifically, the smart home gateway can receive the device processing instruction for the smart home device sent by the user device, and then process the smart home device in the device list according to the device processing instruction. Wherein, the device processing instruction is at least one of device adding instruction, device deleting instruction and device modifying instruction.

[0231] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application include but are not limited to the above examples, and it can be understood that those skilled in the art can also set according to actual needs under the guidance of the idea of the embodiments of the present application, and the present application does not limit this.

[0232] In the embodiment of the present application, the smart home gateway is applied, the smart home gateway can be deployed in the smart home system, the smart home system can further include smart home devices, the smart home devices include smart home devices communicating based on different communication protocols, in the process of managing and controlling the smart home devices, especially in the case of data interaction between different smart home devices, the gateway can receive device data sent by a first smart home device, the device data at least includes a device identifier, the first smart home device is a smart home device communicating based on a first communication protocol, and the target device attribute corresponding to the first smart home device is identified based on the device identifier, then the device data is converted into target data in an internal data format according to the target device attribute, the internal data format is a standard format for data interaction between the smart home gateway and the smart home devices in the smart home system, and then the target data is sent to a second smart home device, the second smart home device is a smart home device communicating based on a second communication protocol, the first communication protocol and the second communication protocol are different communication protocols, so that when the smart home devices based on different communication protocols need to interact, the gateway can convert the device data needing to interact, and overcome the communication protocol difference between different smart home devices based on the converted data, realize unified control, ensure efficient and stable interconnection and intercommunication between smart home devices, provide great convenience for user control of smart home devices, and ensure user experience.

[0233] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application, the following will be exemplarily described by corresponding examples:

[0234] As an example, refer to Figure 2, shows the flowchart of device control provided in the embodiments of the present application. When different brands of smart devices access the smart home gateway, the protocol conversion mechanism begins to play a role. First, the gateway identifies the device through the device identification module. This module uses the device's specific identification information, such as the device's MAC address, device model code, etc., to determine the device's brand and type. Once the device is identified, the protocol analysis module will parse according to the device's communication protocol. For example, if it is a smart door lock using Z-Wave protocol, the protocol analysis module will understand the data packet structure of Z-Wave protocol and extract key information such as door lock status, unlock instruction, etc. Next, the protocol conversion module converts the parsed device data into a unified internal data format. This internal data format is the standard format for the gateway to interact with other devices and can be understood by devices of different brands. For example, after converting the door lock status data of the Z-Wave protocol into a unified format, other devices such as smart lamps or smart home appliances can also perform corresponding linkage operations according to this status.

[0235] Internal format (Here is an example showing how to standardize data from different devices into a unified internal data format. For example, taking light devices and temperature control devices as examples:

[0236] { "devices": [ { "device_id": "light_001", "type": "light", "status":"on", "brightness": 75, "color": "warm_white", "protocol": "Zigbee"}, { "device_id": "thermostat_001", "type": "thermostat", "status": "auto", "temperature": 22.5, "mode": "heating", "protocol": "WiFi"} ]}

[0237] In the above internal data format:

[0238] device_id: Unique identifier of the device.

[0239] type: Device type (such as light, temperature control).

[0240] status: Current status of the device (such as on, off, auto).

[0241] brightness: Brightness of the light device (only applicable to light devices).

[0242] color: color of the light (only applicable for light devices).

[0243] temperature: current temperature of the temperature control device (only applicable for temperature control devices).

[0244] mode: working mode of the temperature control device (such as heating, cooling).

[0245] protocol: communication protocol used by the device (such as Zigbee, WiFi).

[0246] To ensure the accuracy and efficiency of protocol conversion, a dynamic protocol library is established. This protocol library is constantly updated and expanded to accommodate emerging smart device protocols. When new devices are launched, their protocols are added to the protocol library through online updates, ensuring that the system can support new devices in a timely manner.

[0247] Among them, for the discovery and identification of smart devices, the smart home gateway discovers newly connected smart devices through automatic scanning and device broadcast response. The automatic scanning function periodically scans the communication network and sends specific probe signals. For example, in a WiFi network, the gateway can send specific broadcast packets to inquire whether there are new devices connected. When smart devices are connected to the network, they will actively send broadcast messages to the gateway, containing basic information such as brand, model, and function. After receiving these broadcast messages, the gateway adds the device information to the device list. In order to accurately identify the type and control method of the device, the gateway matches the scanned device information with the built-in device database. This database stores the characteristic information of various known devices, and through comparison, the specific type of the device can be determined. For example, if the broadcast message of the device contains specific brand codes and model information, the gateway can find the corresponding record in the database to determine that the device is a smart camera and understand its control method and parameter requirements.

[0248] For some devices that cannot be automatically identified, the gateway can obtain device information through online queries or user manual input. For example, users can input the brand and model of the device through the mobile application, and the gateway will query and configure according to these information.

[0249] In addition, to ensure the security and reliability of data transmission between cross-brand devices, a series of advanced security technologies are adopted. First of all, data encryption is crucial. High-strength encryption algorithms such as AES-256 (Advanced Encryption Standard, 256-bit key length) are used to encrypt the transmitted data. An encrypted channel is established between the device and the gateway to ensure that the data is not stolen or tampered with during transmission. Moreover, identity authentication mechanism is also indispensable. Strict identity authentication is conducted for smart devices and user terminals. When a device accesses the gateway, it needs to provide a unique identity and authentication key. For example, when a smart home appliance accesses, it will send its device serial number and pre-set authentication key to the gateway, and the gateway will only allow the device to access the system after verification. When a user terminal logs into the mobile application, it needs to input the username and password and other authentication information to ensure that only legitimate users can control the device. In addition, data integrity verification is also important. Specifically, hash algorithms (such as SHA-256) or message authentication codes can be used to verify the integrity of the transmitted data. The receiver will perform integrity verification after receiving the data to ensure that the data has not been damaged or tampered with during transmission. In addition, secure communication protocols such as TLS / SSL (Transport Layer Security / Secure Sockets Layer) are used to ensure the security and reliability of data transmission. These protocols establish an encrypted channel between the device and the gateway to prevent data from being eavesdropped and attacked.

[0250] For user terminal application development, the user terminal application is an important tool for users to interact with the smart home gateway. During development, focus on user experience and functional practicality. In terms of device management, users can add, delete, and modify smart devices through the application, view device status and parameters. Provide device grouping management function, facilitate user classification management of different types of devices. For example, users can divide all smart light fixtures into a group and divide smart home appliances into another group to facilitate more convenient control. In the scene setting function, users can set different scenes according to their own needs. For example, when the user comes home, the gateway can automatically open the smart door lock, turn on the lights in the living room, and adjust the air conditioner temperature to a comfortable range. In the scene setting, users can select multiple devices for linkage control to achieve the function of one-key control of multiple devices. In the timing task function, users can set timing tasks to automatically execute corresponding operations on smart devices at specified times. For example, users can set the automatic opening of the curtains at 7 am every day and the automatic closing of all lights at 10 pm. Provide repeated timing task setting function to facilitate user setting of periodic tasks. In the remote control function, users can remotely control smart devices through the application, wherever they are, and can control the devices at home at any time. The application provides real-time device status feedback to let users understand the running status of the device. For example, users can view the real-time picture of the smart camera through the mobile phone to understand the situation at home.

[0251] In addition, through the data analysis function, the use data of smart devices can be analyzed to provide energy-saving suggestions and device maintenance prompts for users. Analysis data includes device power consumption, running time, fault record, etc. For example, if the power consumption of a smart home appliance suddenly increases, the application can remind the user to check whether the device has a fault or provide energy-saving suggestions such as adjusting the use time of the device or setting a more reasonable temperature.

[0252] Further, in order to meet the growing demand of the smart home market, the smart home gateway has good scalability. Adding new device types is an important aspect. With the continuous emergence of new smart devices, the gateway should be able to easily add new device types. When a new device type appears, by updating the software and protocol library of the gateway, support for new devices is realized. For example, if a new type of smart sensor appears, the developer can analyze and develop the protocol of the sensor, add its protocol to the protocol library of the gateway, and then update the software of the gateway to enable the gateway to recognize and control this new device.

[0253] Expanding functional modules is also an important way to improve system performance. Based on user needs, the system's functional modules can be continuously expanded. For example, a voice control module can be added, allowing users to control smart devices via voice commands. Alternatively, a smart scene module can be added to automatically adjust device status based on different times, weather conditions, etc. An energy management module can also be added to monitor and optimize home energy usage. Functional modules can be added to the gateway through software upgrades, providing users with more intelligent services.

[0254] Integration with third-party platforms enables the integration of more devices and services. For example, integrating with smart speaker platforms allows for voice control of smart devices; integrating with smart security platforms enables integrated management of home security. During the integration process, it is crucial to ensure data security and compatibility, protecting user privacy and rights. Standardized interfaces and protocols, such as OAuth 2.0 authorization protocols, should be used to ensure secure and reliable integration. Simultaneously, rigorous testing and verification should be conducted to ensure stable system operation after integration.

[0255] Through the above process, when smart home devices based on different communication protocols need to interact with each other, the gateway can convert the data of the devices that need to interact with each other, and overcome the differences in communication protocols between different smart home devices based on the converted data, so as to achieve unified control, ensure efficient and stable interconnection between smart home devices, provide users with great convenience in controlling smart home devices, and ensure the user experience.
