  • Patent number: 12294864
    Abstract: The described embodiments set forth techniques for management of electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles for a wireless device, including in-field replacement of provisioning (bootstrap) eSIM profiles. Public key infrastructure (PKI) information for an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) profile management server is installed in an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) of a wireless device at a time of manufacture and used subsequently by the wireless device to conduct an eSIM profile management session and verify authorization of the OEM profile management server to manage, e.g., update and/or replace, one or more eSIM profiles on the eUICC of the wireless device.

  • Publication number: 20230370832
    Abstract: This application describes techniques for dynamically updating a subscriber identity module (SIM) activation policy for enabling use of an electronic SIM (eSIM) and/or a physical SIM (pSIM) in a wireless device. The wireless device is initially configured with a less restrictive SIM activation policy and during setup is reconfigured to a more restrictive SIM activation policy that locks the wireless device to a particular mobile network operator (MNO) based on an eSIM or a pSIM installed in the wireless device.

  • Patent number: 11260122
    Abstract: Methods for providing novel compositions useful as influenza immunogens are provided. The compositions enable a host response to immunogen sites normally not recognized by a host. The novel immunogens can be used as vaccines or to develop antibodies.

  • Patent number: 10999074
    Abstract: An authentication process for an endpoint device uses a pair of tokens. Tokens are generated at an authentication server that maintains a data store of token states, where the states are defined to include a “normal” state sequence along which a token is expected to advance. The endpoint device can store a token pair in non-volatile local storage. To authenticate, the endpoint device can provide its stored token pair to the authentication server, which can determine whether authentication succeeds based on the states of the tokens in the token pair. After successful authentication, the authentication server can provide a new token pair to the endpoint device and advance the token states along the normal sequence. When the endpoint device confirms receipt of the new token pair, which replaces the previous token pair, the authentication server can advance the state of the tokens again.

  • Publication number: 20210105758
    Abstract: A system and method for mapping a combined frequency division duplexing (FDD) Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)/Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) downlink subframe for use with half-duplex and full-duplex terminals in a communication system. Embodiments of the downlink subframe vary Forward Error Correction (FEC) types for a given modulation scheme as well as support the implementation of a smart antenna at a base station in the communication system. Embodiments of the system are also used in a TDD communication system to support the implementation of smart antennae. A scheduling algorithm allows TDM and TDMA portions of a downlink to efficiently co-exist in the same downlink subframe and simultaneously support full and half-duplex terminals.

  • Patent number: 10296377
    Abstract: A computing resource service receives a request to execute a batch job. The computing resource service invokes a first compute instance to divide the batch job into a plurality of job fragments, where each job fragment comprises a respective subset of operations for the batch job that can be processed within a limited lifespan of a compute instance. The job fragments are distributed among a plurality of second compute instances to enable collective processing of the job fragments. The status of the batch job is determined based at least in part on individual statuses of the job fragments.
