Abstract
A computer-implemented method for communicating with a cloud SIM software. The method includes activating, on a user equipment (UE), a communication module, and connecting with a cloud SIM software located on a remote server. The method also includes sending, from the UE, a request for content to the cloud SIM software, and receiving, by the UE, the content from the cloud SIM software to a local chip on the UE to facilitate communication between the UE and one or more other UEs.
Claims14
A computer-implemented method for communicating with a cloud SIM software, comprising:
- activating, on a mobile device, a communication module configured to communicate with the cloud SIM software;
- connecting, by the mobile device, the communication module with the cloud SIM software located on a remote server;
- sending, from the mobile device, a request for content from the communication module to the cloud SIM software;
- receiving, by the mobile device, the content from the cloud SIM software to a local chip on the mobile device, the content is configured to facilitate communication between the mobile device and one or more other mobile devices;
- maintaining, by the mobile device, a communication channel between the communication module and the cloud SIM software once the content is stored on the local chip of the mobile device;
- and
- reinitiating, by the mobile device, a connection between the communication module and the cloud SIM software when a communication channel is lost.
A system, comprising:
- a mobile device configured to
- activate a communication module;
- connect the communication module with a cloud SIM software located on a remote server;
- send a request from the communication module for content to the cloud SIM software;
- receive the content from the cloud SIM software to a local chip on the mobile device, facilitating communication between the mobile device and one or more other mobile devices;
- maintain a communication channel between the communication module and the cloud SIM software once the content is stored on the local chip of the mobile device;
- and
- reinitiate a connection between the communication module and the cloud SIM software when a communication channel is lost.
A mobile device, comprising:
- memory comprising a set of instructions;
- and
- at least one processor, wherein
- the set of instructions are configured to cause the at least one processor to execute
- sending a request from a communication module for content to a cloud SIM software;
- receiving the content from the cloud SIM software to a local chip on the mobile device to facilitate communication between the mobile device and one or more other mobile devices, wherein
- the communication module is located on the mobile device and the cloud SIM software is located on a remote server:
- maintaining a communication channel between the communication module and the cloud SIM software until the communication channel is lost;
- and
- reinitiating a connection between the communication module and the cloud SIM software when the communication channel is lost.
