METHOD AND DEVICE FOR INITIALIZATION BETWEEN USER EQUIPMENT AND UNIVERSAL INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240334176 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR INITIALIZATION BETWEEN USER EQUIPMENT AND UNIVERSAL INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The patent application relates to 5G or 6G communication systems that support higher data rates than 4G systems like LTE. The method involves a user equipment (UE) receiving a message from an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) and determining whether to operate with a Multiple Enabled Profiles (MEPs) function based on the received information.
- Method for a UE in a wireless communication system to operate with an MEP function based on information from an eUICC.
- Provision of a dual-SIM function in a UE with a single eUICC in a wireless communication system.
- Enhancing communication systems beyond 4G to support higher data rates.
- Enabling UEs to determine MEP functionality based on eUICC information.
- Improving flexibility and efficiency in wireless communication systems.
Potential Applications: - Mobile telecommunications - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Smart city infrastructure - Industrial automation - Autonomous vehicles
Problems Solved: - Limited SIM card slots in UEs - Need for efficient MEP functionality determination - Increasing data rate demands in communication systems
