Problems solved by technology

[0006] The downside is that the use of multiple devices requires an increased number of SIM cards
Therefore multiple SIM cards have to be assigned to one user, or the user has to change the SIM cards for operating different wireless mobile terminal devices each time between devices, which is very cumbersome and inconvenient
[0007] This now makes it possible to issue new SIM cards only on the wireless mobile network operator side, which requires a lot of effort and expense

Embodiment Construction

[0037] An application example of the invention is shown with reference to wireless mobile technology, in which an identity module in the form of a Subscriber Identity Module, a so-called SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module: SIM for short) for operating a wireless mobile terminal is used.

[0038] The primary SIM is the first Subscriber Identity Module, primary SIM: MSIM, which serves as a template for all other Subscriber Identity Modules VSIMs to be personalized for this subscriber of the wireless mobile network. For this purpose, a predetermined number or even an arbitrary number of other non-personalized Subscriber Identity Modules, ie virtual SIMs: VSIMs, can be personalized by using the master SIM: MSIM.

[0039] For this purpose, multiple new unused or even used SIM cards or wireless mobile terminals with integrated SIM cards are offered via any sales channel. Then, initialization and personalization are performed on the user side of the wireless mobile network by using...

Abstract

A method for starting up and personalising a second non-personalised identification module (VSIM) by means of a first identification module MasterSIM is provided, wherein the first identification module MasterSIM contains a personalised user data record, an authentication and / or checking of the second identification module (VSIM) is carried out and the user data record for storage on the second identification module (VSIM) for personalising the second identification module (VSIM) is read from the MasterSIM (MSIM), transmitted to the second identification module (VSIM) and stored therein, in particular containing one or more unique definitive user identification (IMSI). The data record generated during personalizing and the associated user data or subscriber data is stored in the home location register ofa mobile radio network.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for activating and personalizing a further non-personalized second identification module, in particular a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) for operating a wireless mobile terminal, in which there is a second non-personalized data record 1. Identification module: primary SIM. Background technique [0002] Chip cards are used especially in wireless mobile communications, such as in particular in cellular wireless mobile networks according to the GSM or UMTS standards, for the deterministic and reliable identification of subscribers, such as also for the provision of various special functions and value-added services. The chip card or chip card application involved according to the generation and type of the underlying system standard UICC, SIM, USIM, R-UIM or also ISIM carries a number of specific parameters, keys and other elements of different types, For example with operator data, provider data, product data or user ...
