  • Patent number: 10003959
    Abstract: Systems and methods for the subscriber identity module (SIM) access profile (SAP) over Bluetooth. In one embodiment, intermediate responses from a SIM card containing procedure bytes are not transmitted to the client, but rather the appropriate response is generated by the server and sent to the SIM card. In another embodiment, the client groups together multiple command APDUs (Application Protocol Data Unit) into one message before sending out to the server, and the message may also contain parameters indicating various actions to be taken by the server in case an error is generated. In another embodiment, the client instructs the server to perform poling of the SIM card in an autonomous manner for any proactive data. Embodiments are not limited to a SIM card, and are applicable to other types of smart cards, such as an UICC (Universal Integrated Circuit Card).

  • Patent number: 9658979
    Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and apparatuses for managing multiple memories on a multi-slot communication device as a single contiguous combined memory. The memories may include various types of universal serial bus (USB) and/or universal integrated circuit card (UICC) memories. Ranges of physical addresses of portions of each memory may be associated with a range of virtual addresses of the single contiguous combined memory. Associations of physical and virtual addresses may be stored on the multi-slot communication device. A single memory access request to the single contiguous combined memory may be made using the virtual addresses, translated into multiple memory access requests for the individual memories using the physical addresses.

  • Publication number: 20160204814
    Abstract: The various embodiments include methods and apparatuses for providing multiple memories on a multi-slot communication device or on a multi-slot communication device and a wireless device as a single, contiguous, combined memory. The memories may include various types of universal serial bus (USB) and/or universal integrated circuit card (UICC) memories. Ranges of physical addresses of portions of each memory may be associated with a range of virtual addresses of the combined memory. The associations of physical and virtual addresses may be stored on the multi-slot communication device. A single memory access request to the combined memory may be made using the virtual addresses, then translated into multiple memory access requests for the individual memories using the physical addresses. Providing memory access requests to a memory on the wireless device may be accomplished by connecting to the memory on the wireless device over a wireless network by the multi-slot communication device.
