Abstract: Communicating via near field communication (NFC) between a reader and an application on an NFC-enabled device. The device receives, from a reader, a selection of an application identifier (AID) proxy of the device. The proxy receives, from the reader, a query (including domain name) directed to the availability of an application on the device. The proxy determines whether the domain name corresponds to an AID of an application on the device by reference to a data store relating each domain name of each application to a corresponding AID. When the domain determined to correspond to an AID of an application on the device, the device transmits a response to the reader indicating the AID corresponding to the domain name. The device receives, from the reader, selection of the transmitted AID. The application corresponding to selected AID communicates with the reader in an NFC application protocol data unit communication session.

Abstract: A card computing device may include and manage multiple virtualized universal integrated circuit cards (UICCs) for use with mobile communications. The card computing device may be capable of storing information, and executing applications, for multiple mobile networks (e.g., using multiple virtual UICCs) and of managing switches among those mobile networks. A mobile network operator (MNO) may be represented by a MNO profile, which, when enabled, may look and behave like a dedicated UICC. One or more applications may be deployed on the card computing device and each may be associated with a MNO profile. When a MNO profile is enabled, one or more applications may be activated and when a MNO profile is disabled, one or more active applications may be deactivated, according to some embodiments. Thus, a card computing device may be configured to activate and deactivate applications as part of managing MNO profiles.

Abstract: A method, system, and medium are provided for dynamically enabling and disabling cyclic prefix within a long-term evolution (LTE) channel. A base station receives channel quality indication (CQI) reports indicating levels of ISI within the LTE channel. The base station determines whether the levels of ISI within the LTE channel are greater than, equal to, or less than a predetermined threshold level of ISI for the LTE channel. Based on the determination, the base station either enables or disables cyclic prefix within the LTE channel. In addition to levels of ISI, numbers of roaming users or cell edge users utilizing the LTE channel may affect whether cyclic prefix is enabled or disabled within the LTE channel.
