Apparatuses, methods and systems for interfacing with a trusted subscription management platform
First Claim
1. A mobile station comprising:
- a modem and at least one antenna configured to communicate in multi-active mode with a plurality of cellular networks;
at least one processor,an application memory storing a trusted user interface (UI) client that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to provision virtual subscriber identity module (SIM) cards on behalf of the mobile station; and
a baseband memory distinct from the application memory, the baseband memory storing a trusted baseband client that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor tocoordinate communication between the mobile station and one or more of the plurality of cellular networks using one or more corresponding virtual SIM cards, andcoordinate communication with a profile manager that hosts a set of virtual SIM cards associated with the mobile station.

Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are provided for implementing a trusted subscription management platform. The platform allows the remote creation, distribution and management of virtual subscriber identity module cards stored in a plurality of concurrent embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Cards (eUICCs). The eUICCs may be virtualized through a secure software module integrated within a mobile station or in a distant server. These eUICCs may be deployed in both hardware and software instances within the mobile station (or the distant server). In some embodiments, use of the trusted subscription management platform provides a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) server module that facilitates the transmission of voice and data over Internet protocol services integrated within a phone application of the mobile station.

11. A method for a mobile station configured to communicate in multi-active mode with a plurality of cellular networks, the method comprising:
-
causing, by a trusted user interface (UI) client stored by an application memory of the mobile station, provisioning of virtual subscriber identity module (SIM) cards on behalf of the mobile station; coordinating, by a trusted baseband client stored by a baseband memory of the mobile station that is distinct from the application memory of the mobile station, communication between the mobile station and one or more of the plurality of cellular networks using one or more corresponding virtual SIM cards; and coordinating, by the trusted baseband client, communication with a profile manager that hosts a set of virtual SIM cards associated with the mobile station. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A mobile station configured to communicate in multi-active mode with a plurality of cellular networks, the mobile station comprising:
-
trusted user interface (UI) client means for provisioning virtual subscriber identity module (SIM) cards on behalf of the mobile station; and trusted baseband client means for coordinating communication between the mobile station and one or more of the plurality of cellular networks using one or more corresponding virtual SIM cards, and coordinating communication with a profile manager that hosts a set of virtual SIM cards associated with the mobile station, wherein the trusted baseband client means is distinct from the trusted UI client means. - View Dependent Claims (20)
