Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for validating device-to-device (D2D) communication devices in a server via a mobile terminal are provided. A 1st device-to-device (D2D) communication device includes a communication unit for communicating with a mobile terminal via D2D communication, and a controller. The controller is configured to control the communication unit to transmit digital signature information of the 1st D2D communication device to the mobile terminal, receive, when the digital signature information is successfully authenticated in a server, server public encryption information, from the mobile terminal, and transmit device information of the 1st D2D communication device, which is encrypted using the server public encryption information, to the server, and register the 1st D2D communication device in the server. The method and apparatus reduce user input for registering D2D communication devices in a server, increases user convenience, and decrease authentication time.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus according to the disclosure includes: a display, a communication interface comprising communication circuitry, a memory, and a processor.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device includes a communicator comprising communication circuitry and a processor, the processor is configured to control the communicator to perform communication with an external device based on identifying that a strength of a signal received from an external device is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, and after converting an electronic device to a low power mode, based on identifying that a strength of a signal received from an external device being within a first range, to control the electronic device to perform a secure pairing operation.
Abstract:
A device management method and apparatus is provided for managing electronic devices through wireless communication. A device management method of a first device having a list of wireless communication-enabled devices according to the present disclosure includes transmitting a first message requesting second device information, when it is necessary to check connection status of a second device performing wireless communication with the devices contained in the list, comparing the second device previously stored information and the second device information contained in the second message, when a second message including the second device information is received in response to the first message, and transmitting a recovery command message with the first device information, when the second device information included in the second message differs from the previously stored second device information.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for a master gateway to register a device in a smart home network system. The method includes selecting performance parameters related to the device measured by at least two gateways including the master gateway; collecting, from the at least two gateways, at least one first information item about the performance parameters measured for the device capable of being registered in the at least two gateways; creating second information used to register the device, based on the at least one first information item, by the at least two gateways; and instructing one of the at least two gateways to register the device, based on the second information. The present invention relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for the Internet of Things (IoT). The present invention may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, and security and safety services.
Abstract:
An operating method of a mobile device for performing pairing with an electronic device, including receiving a reception wireless signal from the electronic device; in response to determining that a strength of the reception wireless signal is equal to or greater than a proximity threshold for determining proximity to the electronic device, obtaining sensing information about a movement of the mobile device using at least one sensor of the mobile device; adapting a touch threshold for determining a touch with the electronic device, based on the sensing information; and in response to determining that the strength of the reception wireless signal is equal to or greater than the adapted touch threshold, performing the pairing with the electronic device.
Abstract:
Provided are an electronic device and a method for controlling same. In a method for controlling an electronic device, the strength of a signal transmitted by an external device and/or whether or not the electronic device is being used is confirmed during the execution of communication with the external device, information relating to the movement state of the external device is requested if the strength of the signal transmitted by the external device and/or whether or not the electronic device is being used satisfies a predetermined condition, authentication information for authenticating the external device is transmitted to the external device if the external device is determined to be moving on the basis of the information relating to the movement state of the external device, an ultrasonic signal is output on the basis of the authentication information, and an authentication result in response to the ultrasonic signal may be received from the external device.
