Method for exchanging information by using smart grid in UPnP
First Claim
1. A method for exchanging information by using a smart grid (SG), the method comprising:
- transmitting, by an SG control point (CP), an SG capability request message to a first device and a second device;
receiving SG capability response messages from the first device and the second device;
determining whether function sets included in the received SG capability response messages from the first device and the second device are the same as one another, wherein the function sets indicate whether the first device and second device are programmed to function as one of a client and a server and includes information relating to at least one function that the first device and the second device are programmed to perform;
matching function sets of the first device and the second device that are the same as one another; and
connecting the first device and the second device to one another.

Abstract
A system for performing information exchange by using a Smart Grid (SG) is provided. The system includes a first device and a second device having SG service types; and an SG Control Point (CP) for transmitting an SG capability request message to the first device and the second device, receiving SG capability response messages from the first device and the second device, matching function sets of the same type to one another if the function sets of the same type are included in the received SG capability response messages from the first device and the second device, and connecting the first device and the second device to one another for the information exchange.
