Embodiment 1

[0033] In this embodiment, multiple devices equipped with eSIM cards can use the same number. Among the multiple eSIM card devices in this embodiment, at least one of them can be set as a master device, and the rest of the devices can be set as slave devices. In this embodiment, the master device has a dedicated master device authority, and the authority of the slave devices may be the same or different. In addition, in this embodiment, the specific permissions of the master device and the slave device can be flexibly set according to specific application scenarios. For example, the master device can be set to have special permissions such as service inquiry, service modification, and service application, while the slave device has general traffic usage and dialing permissions.

[0034] In this embodiment, on the slave device side, the master-slave device switching process of the eSIM card can be found in figure 1 shown, including:

[0035] S101: The slave device receives a...

Embodiment 2

[0071] This embodiment also provides a slave device of an eSIM card, and the slave device and the master device of the eSIM card use the same number. Among the multiple devices using the same number in this embodiment, one device may be the master device at a certain moment, but may be switched from the master device to the slave device at the next moment, and of course it may always be the master device. However, for a device that is currently a slave device, it may switch to a master device at a later time. That is, the device in this embodiment can switch between the slave device and the master device, and can switch back and forth. See Figure 6 As shown, the slave device of the eSIM card in this embodiment includes:

[0072] The interaction module 61 is configured to receive a master-slave switching instruction.

[0073] The master-slave switching instruction in this embodiment can be issued by the device user. For example, when the user cannot use the master device no...

Abstract

The embodiment of the present invention provides a master-slave device switching method of an eSIM card, a slave device, and an eSIM card management server. The master device of the eSIM card and the eSIM card in the slave device use the same number; the slave device in the embodiment of the present invention can receive Master-slave switching command, after receiving the master-slave switching command, initiate a master-slave switching authentication to the eSIM card management server; after the eSIM card management server passes the authentication of the master-slave switching authentication initiated by the slave device, set the slave device as an eSIM card The master device, and send a handover success notification to the slave device. Therefore, when the user cannot use the master device, for example, the master device is out of power or the master device is not in the user device, etc., the user can send a master-slave switch command to the slave device to switch the slave device to the master device, so that the operation of the master device can be performed normally. , can improve user experience satisfaction, and is more conducive to the promotion and use of eSIM cards.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, and in particular to a master-slave device switching method of an eSIM (Embedded SIM, embedded SIM) card, a slave device and an eSIM card management server. Background technique [0002] On February 18, 2016, the Global Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) released the remote configuration specification for reprogrammable SIM cards for the Internet of Things market. GSMA has not yet named this type of SIM card, and the outside world calls it eSIM (Embedded SIM, embedded SIM). GSMA said that the eSIM specification for smart terminals such as smartphones will be released in June 2016. [0003] eSIM is still the category of SIM cards, but it embeds traditional SIM cards directly on the chip of the device instead of being added to the device as a separate removable part. Devices using eSIM can cancel the traditional SIM card slot, and the space saved makes the device further slimmer, and at th...
