Abstract: An apparatus includes a processing device, communications hardware configured to enable wireless communication by the apparatus, and a universal integrated circuit card (UICC). The UICC stores a decentralized electronic subscriber identity module (dSIM) that hosts a decentralized access application that is configured to exchange information with a decentralized mobile network core utilizing the communications hardware to perform an asymmetric authentication session.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a decentralized electronic subscriber identity module (dSIM) and an intelligent multi-chain offloading platform to leverage a plurality of decentralized blockchain-based cellular networks. In one embodiment, an AI-enabled offloading gateway can interconnect a plurality of mobile network operators with said decentralized blockchain-based cellular networks using a dSIM profile. The dSIM profile may contain symmetric and/or asymmetric network access applications, Proof-of-Coverage, and Quality-of-Service applications. The offloading gateway may include of various server nodes exposing network access and blockchain interfaces to mobile operators' systems and subscriber equipment containing dSIM profiles inside embedded or integrated universal integrated circuit cards (eUICCs/iUICCs).

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and computer readable storage media are provided for implementing a trusted subscription management platform. An example server device is configured to transmit, to a trusted UI client of a mobile station, information regarding a set of virtual SIM cards associated with the mobile station, and receive, from the trusted UI client of the mobile station, a request to provision a particular virtual SIM card. The server device is further configured to initiate, by an SM-SR module and via a trusted baseband client of the mobile device, a secure proxy channel between the server device and a profile manager that hosts the particular virtual SIM card, and transmit, via the secure proxy channel and to the profile manager, an instruction regarding the particular virtual SIM card. Corresponding methods and computer readable storage media are provided.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are provided for securely configuring a Java Card virtual machine operating on a cellular device's application processor. In one embodiment, a connected device with an integrated cellular modem, a virtual universal integrated circuit chip and an integrated fingerprint scanner are used. In another embodiment, the cellular device's built-in camera is used, instead of an integrated fingerprint scanner, to capture the user's facial image.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are provided for configuring a “SIM-less” System-on-Chip (S2oC) with integrated reprogrammable cellular network connectivity. Digitally issued Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) cards may be digitally issued by a remote server and downloaded and managed by the S2oC. A virtual SIM card container may be packaged in the S2oC and hosts an identity manager used by a plurality of applications residing in the multi-core processor of the S2oC. A virtual modem with a custom communication protocol allows the multi-core processor applications to exchange data with the virtual SIM card container.
