Abstract: A quality of experience QoE server associated with a home wireless communication service network. The QoE server comprises a QoE application that, when executed by the QoE server, receives an indication of a location of a user equipment (UE), wherein the UE is subscribed to receive wireless communication service with the home network and that the UE is in a roaming operation mode, searches a geo-location database using the indication of the location of the UE, based on searching the geo-location database, determines that the home network or a preferred network is located proximate to the indication of the location of the UE, and sends a request to the UE to perform a refresh operation, wherein the UE initiates a scan of cell site frequencies, detects a cell site associated with the home network or the preferred network, and attaches wirelessly to the cell site.

Abstract: A wireless communication device. The wireless communication device comprises a radio transceiver; a first processor; a first non-transitory memory; and a subscriber identity module (SIM). The SIM comprises a second processor, a second non-transitory memory storing network keys that the radio transceiver uses to authenticate to a cell site, and an applet stored in the second non-transitory memory. When executed by the second processor, the applet sends a request to know where the wireless communication device is to the first processor, receives an answer from the first processor containing a cell global identifier (CGI) of a first cell site that the radio transceiver is attached to and containing a received signal strength of the first cell site, determines that the received signal strength of the first cell site is below a predefined threshold, and sends a refresh command to the first processor.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for authenticating user sign-on at an online service provider using a subscriber identity module (SIM) based authentication process are discussed herein. A user may request to sign-on an online service provider using a user device. The user device may be requested to provide a response to a challenge sent by the online service provider. The online service provider may interface with an identity provider (IDP) to send the challenge. The challenge may be received at a SIM component associated with the user device. The SIM component may generate a challenge response to the challenge, encrypt the response with a first security key associated with the SIM component, and send the encrypted challenge response to the IDP using the OTA component. The IDP may authenticate the encrypted challenge response using a second security key associated with the IDP.

Abstract: Systems and methods enable a framework that manages multiple discovery servers and different device activations and provisioning. Initially, a request for a service corresponding to a user equipment (UE) is received at a discovery management server. The discovery management server determines a discovery server corresponding to the UE. A push notification or a pull request is communicated by the discovery management server to the discovery server. Information corresponding to the service in association with the UE is stored at a database of the discovery management server.

Abstract: A method comprises storing, in an over-the-air (OTA) system of the core network, an update to an electronic subscriber identity model (eSIM) profile, transmitting, by the OTA system, the update to the eSIM profile to a remote subscriber identity module provisioning (RSP) system of the core network, updating, by an update application of the RSP system, the eSIM profile based on the update to the eSIM profile received from the OTA system by adding the one or more files to the eSIM profile, modifying the one or more files in the eSIM profile, or updating the file in the eSIM profile to include the additional or modified data, and downloading, by the download application of the UE, the eSIM profile to the UE.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and collecting network data in different roaming environments. The method includes searching, by a mobile device, for one or more home networks in a list of available networks; attaching, by the mobile device, to a home network selected from the list of available networks; monitoring, by the mobile device, location of the mobile device after attaching to the home network; detecting, by the mobile device based on the location of the mobile device, a roaming scenario when the mobile device moves outside the home network and attaches to a visited network not on the list of available networks; and collecting, by a subscriber identification module (SIM) applet on the mobile device, performance data associated with the visited network upon detecting that the mobile device is roaming in the visited network.

Abstract: The system receives, from a telecommunications network subscribed to by the wireless device, a list of roaming networks. The system connects to a roaming network from the list of roaming networks. The system enters a roaming mode from a standard mode. The roaming mode reduces the amount of data used by the wireless device by preventing the wireless device from performing background tasks. Background tasks include processes performed by the wireless device to keep an application on the wireless device up to date. The standard mode causes the wireless device to operate at a higher data level and a less optimized battery level compared to the roaming mode. The system connects to the telecommunications network. The wireless device disconnects from the roaming network before connecting to the telecommunications network subscribed to by the wireless device. The system enters the standard mode.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a mobile network blacklist for satellite networks. Information indicative of a satellite network can be stored within a mobile network blacklist to prevent the transmission of a wireless access request to the satellite network. When it is determined that no approved network is available to provide a wireless communication service, the information indicative of the satellite network can be removed from the mobile network blacklist to enable the transmission of a wireless access request for the satellite network to provide the wireless communication service. In doing so, the satellite network can provide the wireless communication service when other approved networks are not available to provide the wireless communication service.

Abstract: An eSIM server, entitlement server, and user equipment (UE) of a telecommunications network are described herein. Following deletion of an eSIM from the UE, the UE may request the eSIM from the telecommunications network. Based on an active subscription associated with the UE, the entitlement server determines that the deleted eSIM should be provided to the UE and manages the eSIM server and UE to ensure this. The eSIM server stores the deleted eSIM and other eSIMs, along with their statuses. Following the deletion of the eSIM, the eSIM server maintains a quarantine status for the eSIM and, following instruction to update the eSIM status to a released status from the entitlement server, provides the eSIM to the UE.

Abstract: A method is provided of updating Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) data in a user equipment (UE) associated with a wireless communication service provider. An entitlement server receives a UE SIM update inquiry from a UE, the inquiry including UE identifying information and UE stored SIM configuration identifying information. The entitlement server sends a SIM update inquiry to a SIM configuration repository, the inquiry including the UE identifying information and the UE stored SIM configuration identifying information. The entitlement server receives a SIM status message from the SIM configuration repository, the message indicating whether SIM configuration data stored in the SIM configuration repository is more recent than the UE stored SIM configuration. The entitlement server sends a SIM update response to the UE, the UE SIM update response including the SIM status message.

Abstract: A communication device includes a subscriber identity module (SIM), a central processing unit (CPU), and a non-transitory memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the CPU, causes the SIM to receive an over-the-air (OTA) Internet Protocol (IP) notification from an OTA server via an IP notification server, where the OTA IP notification comprises SIM content comprising an encrypted payload, decrypt the encrypted payload to obtain a decrypted payload, wherein the decrypted payload includes data or a trigger instruction, determine whether the decrypted payload includes the trigger instruction, and update the SIM with the SIM content when the decrypted payload includes data.

Abstract: The disclosed technology is directed to providing an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) solution in a wireless telecommunication network. An example method for provisioning a wireless device with an eSIM profile for operation on a network includes a primary DP+ server receiving a first information corresponding to a mobile device. The primary DP+ server, which is communicatively coupled to a plurality of secondary DP+ servers, is accessed via network information embedded in a single quick response (QR) code that was retrieved by scanning the single QR code. The method further includes determining whether an appropriate eSIM profile is available on the primary DP+ server or one of the secondary DP+ servers. In the former case, the identified eSIM is transmitted to the mobile device, whereas in the latter case, the identified eSIM profile is received from the respective secondary DP+ server and then transmitted to the mobile device.

Abstract: The disclosed technology is directed to providing an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) solution in a wireless telecommunication network. An example method for provisioning a wireless device with an eSIM profile for operation on a network includes scanning a single static QR code to retrieve network addresses for multiple profile management servers, accessing one or more of the multiple profile management servers to identify an appropriate eSIM profile that can be used by the wireless device, retrieving the identified eSIM profile from the respective profile management server, and transmitting the retrieved eSIM profile to the wireless device. The described methods, systems, and devices advantageously enables different vendors and/or platforms to provide each of the multiple profile management servers while maintaining the existing eSIM provisioning process, and obviates the need for a root discovery service.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques, devices, and systems for receiving, by a mobile device and from a subscriber identity module (SIM), an input associated with an unstructured supplementary service data (USSD) code. The input can be provided by the SIM based on application data stored in the SIM. The SIM can receive the application data via an over-the-air (OTA) platform. The mobile device can transmit, to a service provider core network, a request associated with the USSD code. The mobile device can receive a subscription value based on the USSD code. The subscription value can be a mobile station international subscriber directory number (MSISDN) or an internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) public user identity (IMPU).

Abstract: A system identifies devices to be migrated from a first network to a second network. Identifying the devices includes determining that the devices are eSIM-capable of being upgraded to operate using the second network. For each device, an eSIM profile is determined. Each device has a SIM card or a previous eSIM profile installed. The eSIM profile matches a level of service to be provided to the device by the second cellular network. The eSIM profile is pushed to the device. The eSIM profile is downloaded and installed on the device. The system determines that the eSIM profile has been installed on the device. The level of service to be provided to the device is enabled on the eSIM profile. The SIM card or previous eSIM profile on the device is disabled.

Abstract: The system receives an indication of a sensitive operation. The system obtains a unique ID of a user's UE. Based on the unique ID of the UE, the system retrieves a visual authentication method including a visual ID. The system records the visual ID, and retrieves a corresponding stored visual ID. The system performs a liveness check associated with the visual ID, to determine whether the visual ID is a recording or a live version of the visual ID. Upon determining that the visual ID is the recording, the system refuses to authenticate the user. Upon determining that the visual ID is the live version of the visual ID, the system compares the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID to determine whether the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID match. Upon determining that the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID match, the system authenticates the user.

Abstract: The disclosed system provides for machine-to-machine routing of messages (e.g., text messages, binary information, etc.) between devices (e.g., external applications, IoT devices, etc.) using non-routable identifiers. The systems and methods publish an application programming interface (API) configured to receive (non-routable) identification information of a target device from an external application (e.g., an IoT Service Provider) that calls the API, determines whether a target device associated with the identification information is a subscriber of a telecommunications service provider that provides telecommunications plans to subscribers of the telecommunications service provider, verifies that the external application is authorized to transmit messages to the target device, and translates the non-routable identification information to a mapped device address that can be used to determine a location of the target device so that the message can be delivered to the target device.

Abstract: Systems and methods discussed herein are directed to subscriber identity (SIM) cards that include multiple profiles. The SIM cards include logic, e.g., an application or an applet, configured to change profiles so that the correct profile is selected for use with the electronic device that includes such a SIM card within the appropriate wireless communication network. The ability to change profiles may be based on activity of the electronic device, e.g., events, within the wireless communication network.
