Publication number: 20240147217Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and devices for dynamically personalizing a wireless communication device. Embodiment methods may include analyzing a USIM AID (Application ID) list contained in the elementary file directory (EF-DIR) of an inserted SIM card for codes for personalization categories indicative of IMSI based, non-IMSI based, or both. Based on the 3G App code in USIM AID found in the EF-DIR, the corresponding personalization categories and values may be retrieved from ME database. The data required for personalization and their values contained in the inserted SIM card may be compared against the personalization category and values retrieved from the database. Access to camp on a mobile network may be dependent on the comparison of personalization category values and codes.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Venkata Durga Vinod CHIKKALA, Rajendra Prasad NELUROUTH, Bhanu Prakash CHOUHAN, Tauseef Ahmad QIDWAI

Publication number: 20230199474Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) is configured such that a SIM card inserted in the UE, which is invalid to camp on a network, may be allowed by the UE to camp on the network based on a preconfigured policy. The policy, for example, may require a valid SIM card to be inserted into a second SIM card slot on the UE. In some policies, the valid SIM card may also be required to camp on a network with full service in order to allow the invalid SIM card to camp on a network. In some policies, the valid SIM card may also be required to camp on a specific type of network, for example a standalone non-public network (SNPN) or a 3GPP network.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Tauseef Ahmad QIDWAI, Rajendra Prasad NELUROUTH, Rohit Prasad SHARMA

Publication number: 20200413253Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine that initial subscriber information associated with a universal integrated circuit card (UICC) alone is insufficient to establish a secure connection with a 5G new radio (NR) based network, obtain additional subscriber information from a secure storage location which is separate from the UICC, generate a subscription concealed identifier (SUCI) based on the additional subscriber information along with the initial subscriber information, and establish the secure connection with the 5G NR based network based on the SUCI.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2019Publication date: December 31, 2020Inventors: Venkata Durga Vinod CHIKKALA, Naga Chandan Babu GUDIVADA, Rajendra Prasad NELUROUTH, Venkata Konda Reddy REDDEM, Phani Pradeep Kumar KOTHAPALLIVENKATA

Publication number: 20200260274Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently personalizing or locking a user equipment (UE) for operation with a specific operator. For example, a manufacturer may load multiple operator configurations associated with multiple operators in UE storage such that the UE may support operation with any of the multiple operators. The UE may then allow a user to select an operator from the multiple operators, and the UE may select and apply an operator configuration corresponding to the selected operator to lock the UE for operation with the selected operator. Thus, using these techniques, a user may be able to dynamically personalize or lock a UE for operation with a selected operator. Further, after being personalized or locked for operation with one operator, a UE may be more easily re-personalized or locked for operation with a different operator.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2020Publication date: August 13, 2020Inventors: Naga Chandan Babu Gudivada, Rajendra Prasad Nelurouth, Venkata Durga Vinod Chikkala, Phani Pradeep Kumar Kothapalli Venkata, Venkata Konda Reddy Reddem
