METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY MAPPING SMART PLUG AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE CONNECTED THERETO IN HOME GATEWAY AND DEVICE THEREFOR

摘要

A method according to an embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for automatically mapping a smart plug and an electronic device connected thereto in a home gateway. The method may comprise the steps of: deleting pre-stored mapping information when a signal received from the smart plug satisfies a condition requiring remapping to the electronic device; configuring a mapping candidate group on the basis of data included in the signal received from the smart plug and information stored for the electronic device when a status change notification signal is received from a predetermined electronic device within a preconfigured time; and when it can be determined that one particular electronic device from among the configured candidate group has been mapped to the smart plug, automatically mapping the corresponding electronic device and the smart plug in a state that the corresponding electronic device is connected to the smart plug.

1. A method for a home gateway to map a smart plug to an electronic device connected to the smart plug automatically, the method comprising:
deleting, when a signal received from the smart plug fulfils a condition for remapping the electronic device, mapping information stored previously; configuring, when a state change notification signal is received from an electronic device in a predetermined time period, a group of mapping candidates based on data included in the signal received from the smart plug and information stored in association with the electronic device; and mapping, when one of the candidates is mapped to the smart plug, the corresponding electronic device and the smart plug in the state of being connected to each other.
