Abstract
In recent years, the smart home field has caught wide attention and witnessed rapid development. Smart devices, continuously increasing in number, make user management and implementation more difficult while promoting the development of the smart home. How to design an efficient smart home management platform is one of the great challenges the current smart home field faces. This article refers to the core idea of SDN, and proposed the software defined smart home platform, SDSH for short. The design features of virtualization, openness, and centralization can effectively integrate the heterogeneous network devices in the smart home platform, and flexibly adapt to the great difference between family scenes and user demands. At the same time, this article brings up the core technology of SDSH, and discusses the application value of the four core technologies and the new challenges the current technology is facing in a smart home scenario. In the end, regarding the SDSH application scenarios, this article analyzes the household experience innovation brought by this kind of smart home management platform, and the opportunities and challenges the SDSH platform faces.Keywords
