Base Station Switching Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17641361 titled 'Base Station Switching Method and Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for switching SIM cards between base stations in a terminal device. The method involves sending binding signaling with SIM card information to a source base station, switching the SIM cards from the source base station to a target base station, and sending reconfiguration complete information to the target base station.

  • The terminal device sends binding signaling with SIM card information to the source base station.
  • The SIM cards in the terminal device are switched from the source base station to the target base station.
  • The terminal device sends reconfiguration complete information to the target base station, including information about the SIM cards that have completed the switching operation.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mobile network operators can use this method to efficiently switch SIM cards between base stations, improving network connectivity and coverage.
  • Terminal devices with multiple SIM cards can benefit from seamless switching between base stations, ensuring uninterrupted service.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Simplifies the process of switching SIM cards between base stations, reducing the complexity and time required for the operation.
  • Enables efficient management of SIM cards in terminal devices, improving network performance and user experience.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Seamless switching of SIM cards between base stations ensures uninterrupted connectivity for terminal devices.
  • Efficient management of SIM cards improves network performance and reliability.
  • Simplified process reduces the complexity and time required for switching SIM cards.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application provides a base station switching method and an apparatus. The method includes: A terminal sends one piece of binding signaling that carries SIM card binding information to a source base station; the terminal switches a plurality of SIM cards from being connected to the source base station to being connected to the target base station; and the terminal sends radio resource control reconfiguration complete information to the target base station, where the radio resource control reconfiguration complete information includes information about the plurality of SIM cards that complete the switching operation.
