[0055] First, the implementation environment of the present invention is exemplified. This example does not limit the specific device structure, but is a specific implementation environment in which the technical solution of the present invention can be executed. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the implementation environment of an embodiment of the present invention. The eSIM bidirectional management system based on the Internet of Things in this embodiment includes an eSIM Internet of Things management platform and an eSIM terminal device. The eSIM terminal device includes an IPA (IoT Profile Assistant) and an eUICC (embedded universal integrated circuit card). The IPA is respectively connected to the eUICC and the eSIM Internet of Things management platform (eIM). The eUICC is used to implement the eSIM card function. The main role of the IPA is to act as an intermediary between the eUICC and the eIM. The eIM is responsible for managing the configuration file status operations on the eUICC, including remotely enabling, disabling, deleting, and triggering configuration file downloads. The eSIM bidirectional management system based on the Internet of Things also includes a user terminal, which communicates with the eIM and the IPA respectively.

[0056] The following is based on the Figure 1 The implementation environment shown is used to further illustrate the control method of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0057] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 A flowchart of an eSIM bidirectional management method based on the Internet of Things provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the eSIM bidirectional management method based on the Internet of Things includes but is not limited to the following steps:

[0058] S201, when the eSIM IoT management platform and the eSIM terminal device are disconnected, the eSIM terminal device performs local eSIM management, and the local eSIM management exists from the beginning;

[0059] S202, when the modification information is received, the eSIM terminal device modifies the first eSIM data into second eSIM data based on the local eSIM management, and generates a local eSIM management notification, wherein the second eSIM data is stored in the eSIM terminal device;

[0060] S203, when the eSIM Internet of Things management platform and the eSIM terminal device are connected, the eSIM terminal device sends the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform;

[0061] S204: The eSIM IoT management platform modifies the third eSIM data into fourth eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification, so that the fourth eSIM data is consistent with the second eSIM data, and the fourth eSIM data is stored in the eSIM IoT management platform.

[0062] It should be noted that after the eSIM terminal device is managed locally or remotely, or before the eSIM terminal device is managed locally or remotely, if the network connection of the eSIM terminal device is disconnected, that is, the eSIM terminal device is disconnected from the eSIM Internet of Things management platform, so that data cannot be transmitted. After the network connection of the eSIM terminal device is disconnected, the eSIM terminal device performs local eSIM management. If local eSIM management or remote eSIM management is performed before the network is disconnected, the local eSIM management notification or the result of the remote eSIM management instruction execution is stored; if the network is disconnected before the eSIM terminal device is managed locally or remotely, the modification information is received to modify the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data. The specific modification includes deleting, updating, adding corresponding eSIM data, etc., which is not limited here; the corresponding local eSIM management notification is generated and stored. Once the eSIM terminal device is connected to the network, the stored local eSIM management notification or remote eSIM management instruction execution result is sent to the eSIM IoT management platform, so that the eSIM IoT management platform can still perform remote eSIM management on the eSIM terminal device after the network is connected, and maintain the remote eSIM management capability of the eSIM IoT management platform. Specifically, when the eSIM terminal device is connected to the network, the eSIM terminal device sends the local eSIM management notification or remote eSIM management instruction execution result to the eSIM IoT management platform, and the eSIM IoT management platform modifies the corresponding eSIM data in the eSIM IoT management platform according to the local eSIM management notification or remote eSIM management instruction execution result sent by the eSIM terminal device (that is, the third eSIM data in the platform is modified to the fourth eSIM data), so that the eSIM IoT management platform and the eSIM terminal device The eSIM data remain consistent, so that the remote eSIM management instruction of the eSIM IoT management platform can be successfully executed.

[0063] In some optional embodiments, Figure 2After the eSIM Internet of Things management platform in step 204 modifies the third eSIM data to the fourth eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification, it includes but is not limited to: when the eSIM Internet of Things management platform triggers remote eSIM management, the eSIM Internet of Things management platform generates a remote eSIM management instruction; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform sends the remote eSIM management instruction to the eSIM terminal device; the eSIM terminal device sends the remote eSIM management instruction to the eSIM card; after the eSIM card executes the remote eSIM management instruction, it modifies the second eSIM data to the fifth eSIM data and generates a remote eSIM management instruction execution result.

[0064] Specifically, when the eSIM IoT management platform and the eSIM terminal device are connected, the eSIM IoT management platform triggers remote eSIM management after receiving the remote modification information sent by the user end. The eSIM IoT management platform generates a corresponding remote eSIM management instruction based on the remote modification information, and sends the remote eSIM management instruction to the eSIM terminal device for remote eSIM management. Specifically, the eSIM terminal device sends the received remote eSIM management instruction to the eSIM card (eUICC with eSIM function); after the eSIM card executes the remote eSIM management instruction, it modifies the second eSIM data to the fifth eSIM data, generates the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, and then generates the corresponding local eSIM management notification according to the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, that is, remote eSIM management is combined, so that local eSIM management can also be triggered during the remote eSIM management process to ensure the successful execution of the remote eSIM management instruction. During the remote eSIM management process, local eSIM management can also be triggered to execute in sequence, that is, local eSIM management is performed after the remote eSIM management is executed, and remote eSIM management is performed after the local eSIM management is executed.

[0065] In some optional embodiments, after the remote eSIM management instruction execution result is generated, it includes but is not limited to: the eSIM terminal device sends the remote eSIM management instruction execution result to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform when it is connected to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform; the eSIM terminal device generates a local eSIM management notification according to the remote eSIM management instruction execution result when it is disconnected from the eSIM Internet of Things management platform, and the IPA sends the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform when it is reconnected to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform returns a confirmation receipt notification to the IPA, so that the IPA sends a deletion notification instruction to the eUICC; the eUICC deletes the stored local eSIM management notification after receiving the deletion notification instruction; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform modifies the fourth eSIM data to the sixth eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification, so that the sixth eSIM data is consistent with the fifth eSIM data.

[0066] Specifically, after the remote eSIM management instruction execution result is generated, if the eSIM terminal device is connected to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform, the remote eSIM management instruction execution result will be directly sent to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform. After the eSIM Internet of Things management platform receives the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, it determines the modification of the second eSIM data according to the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, such as enabling, disabling or deleting the Profile of the second eSIM data, etc., without specific limitation. After the remote eSIM management instruction execution result is generated, if the eSIM terminal device is disconnected from the eSIM IoT management platform, the IPA generates a local eSIM management notification based on the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, and sends the local eSIM management notification to the eUICC for storage; when the eSIM terminal device is connected to the eSIM IoT management platform, the IPA will obtain the local eSIM management notification from the eUICC and send the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM IoT management platform; after the eSIM IoT management platform receives the local eSIM management notification, it determines the modification of the second eSIM data based on the local eSIM management notification. The specific local eSIM management notification includes the corresponding remote eSIM management instruction information and the specific eSIM data change information. The eSIM IoT management platform receives the local eSIM management notification to know which remote eSIM management instruction is executed and obtain the change of the SIM data after execution, so as to change the corresponding eSIM data of the eSIM IoT management platform. For example, the second eSIM data is enabled, disabled or deleted by Profile, etc., which is not specifically limited. The eSIM Internet of Things management platform thus modifies the fourth eSIM data into the sixth eSIM data so that the sixth eSIM data is consistent with the fifth eSIM data, and the remote eSIM management instruction is executed successfully.

[0067] In some optional embodiments, after the eUICC executes the remote eSIM management instruction, it generates not only the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, but also the local eSIM management notification. After the IPA reconnects with the eSIM IoT management platform, the IPA not only sends the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM IoT management platform, but also sends the remote eSIM management instruction execution result to the eSIM IoT management platform. The IPA obtains the remote eSIM management instruction execution result and the local eSIM management notification from the eUICC, and sends the remote eSIM management instruction execution result and the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM IoT management platform. That is, after the eSIM IoT management platform generates the remote eSIM management instruction, it needs to receive the corresponding remote eSIM management instruction execution result, and mainly finds the corresponding eSIM data through the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, and modifies the corresponding eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification.

[0068] The eSIM IoT management platform returns a confirmation receipt notification to IPA, and IPA sends a delete notification instruction to eUICC; after receiving the delete notification instruction, the eUICC deletes the stored remote eSIM management instruction execution result and local eSIM management notification.

[0069] In some optional embodiments, Figure 2 In the step 202 shown, when the modification information is received, the eSIM terminal device modifies the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data based on the local eSIM management, and generates a local eSIM management notification, including but not limited to: the IPA receives the local modification information sent by the user terminal; the IPA generates a local eSIM management instruction according to the local modification information; the IPA sends the local eSIM management instruction to the eUICC; the eUICC modifies the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data according to the local eSIM management instruction, generates a modification result, and generates the local eSIM management notification according to the modification result.

[0070] Specifically, after the eSIM terminal device is disconnected from the eSIM IoT management platform, the IPA of the eSIM terminal device receives the local modification information sent by the user end, thereby performing local eSIM management. The local modification information includes the operations that need to be performed on the eSIM data of the eUICC and the corresponding data. The IPA generates the corresponding local eSIM management instructions based on the local modification information, and sends the local eSIM management instructions to the eUICC. The eUICC performs corresponding operations according to the local eSIM management instructions, such as Profile enablement, Profile disablement or Profile deletion, thereby completing the modification of the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data, without specific limitation. After completing the modification of the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data, the corresponding modification result is generated, and the local eSIM management notification is generated based on the modification result; the eUICC stores the local eSIM management notification. IPA obtains local eSIM management notifications from eUICC, and sends local eSIM management notifications to the eSIM IoT management platform after the eSIM terminal device is connected to the eSIM IoT management platform. The local eSIM management notifications are stored through eUICC to prevent the local eSIM management notifications from failing to store or storing errors, which may lead to the failure of the remote eSIM management instructions of the eSIM IoT management platform to execute.

[0071] In some optional embodiments, after generating the local eSIM management notification according to the modification result, it also includes: the IPA detects in real time whether it is connected to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform; when the IPA is connected to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform, the IPA calls an acquisition notification instruction to obtain a local eSIM management notification, so that the eUICC returns the local eSIM management notification to the IPA; the IPA sends the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform returns a confirmation receipt notification to the IPA, so that the IPA sends a deletion notification instruction to the eUICC; the eUICC deletes the stored local eSIM management notification after receiving the deletion notification instruction.

[0072] Specifically, the IPA detects the network of the eSIM IoT management platform after a preset interval, and connects to the eSIM IoT management platform after detecting the network of the eSIM IoT management platform. After the IPA is connected to the eSIM IoT management platform, the IPA obtains the stored local eSIM management notification from the eUICC, and sends the local eSIM management notification to the eSIM IoT management platform, so that the eSIM IoT management platform modifies the third eSIM data on the eSIM IoT management platform according to the local eSIM management notification, thereby ensuring that the eSIM data of the eUICC and the eSIM IoT management platform are consistent, and avoiding the situation where the eSIM IoT management platform fails to execute remote eSIM management instructions due to inconsistent eSIM data. After the eSIM IoT management platform completes the modification of the third eSIM data, it returns a confirmation notification to the IPA, so that the IPA sends a deletion notification instruction to the eUICC. After receiving the deletion notification instruction, the eUICC deletes the stored local eSIM management notification, thereby clearing the completed local eSIM management notification and releasing the memory.

[0073] In some optional embodiments, when the eSIM Internet of Things management platform and the eSIM terminal device are connected, the method further includes: the IPA receives the local modification information sent by the user terminal; the IPA generates a local eSIM management instruction according to the local modification information; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform receives the remote modification information sent by the user terminal; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform generates a remote eSIM management instruction according to the remote modification information; the IPA receives the remote eSIM management instruction; the IPA sends the local eSIM management instruction and / or the remote eSIM management instruction to the eUICC.

[0074] Specifically, when the eSIM IoT management platform and the eSIM terminal device are connected, local eSIM management and remote eSIM management can be performed in sequence, thereby ensuring the success rate of eSIM management. If the user terminal sends local modification information to the IPA, the IPA generates a local eSIM management instruction based on the local modification information, and sends the local eSIM management instruction to the eUICC for execution. If the user terminal sends remote modification information to the eSIM IoT management platform, the eSIM IoT management platform generates a remote eSIM management instruction based on the remote modification information, and sends the remote eSIM management instruction to the IPA, and the IPA then sends the remote eSIM management instruction to the eUICC for execution.

[0075] In some optional embodiments, after the IPA sends the local eSIM management instruction and / or the remote eSIM management instruction to the eUICC, the method includes: the eUICC modifies the first eSIM data to the second eSIM data according to the local eSIM management instruction and / or the remote eSIM management instruction in turn, generates the local eSIM management notification and / or the remote eSIM management instruction execution result, and returns it to the IPA; the IPA sends the local eSIM management notification and / or the remote eSIM management instruction execution result to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform.

[0076] Specifically, the eUICC receives a local eSIM management instruction and / or a remote eSIM management instruction to perform corresponding operations. When the local eSIM management instruction and the remote eSIM management instruction are received at the same time: when the execution actions represented by the local eSIM management instruction and the remote eSIM management instruction are the same, the eUICC performs the action once; when the execution actions represented by the local eSIM management instruction and the remote eSIM management instruction are different, the eUICC determines the order relationship between the execution actions of the local eSIM management instruction and the execution actions of the remote eSIM management instruction, and executes the local eSIM management instruction and the remote eSIM management instruction in sequence, thereby generating the corresponding local eSIM management notification and remote eSIM management instruction execution results (IPA generation is not required at this time), and sends the local eSIM management notification and the remote eSIM management instruction execution results to the eSIM Internet of Things management platform through IPA; if the local eSIM management instruction and the remote eSIM management instruction contain overlapping execution actions, the overlapping execution actions are only executed once to ensure execution accuracy and avoid management failure.

[0077] In some optional embodiments, the eSIM Internet of Things management platform modifies the third eSIM data into fourth eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification, including: the eSIM Internet of Things management platform obtains the third eSIM data; the eSIM Internet of Things management platform checks the third eSIM data according to the local eSIM management notification to obtain a check result; when the check result indicates that the third eSIM data and the second eSIM data are different, modifies the third eSIM data into fourth eSIM data to make the fourth eSIM data consistent with the second eSIM data.

[0078] Specifically, the eSIM IoT management platform obtains the stored third eSIM data, determines the second eSIM data of the eUICC (i.e., the modified eSIM data of the eUICC) according to the local eSIM management notification, and checks the third eSIM data and the second eSIM data to obtain a check result. When the check result indicates that the third eSIM data and the second eSIM data are different, the third eSIM data is modified to the fourth eSIM data, so that the fourth eSIM data and the second eSIM data are consistent, that is, the fourth eSIM data is guaranteed to be the same as the second eSIM data.

[0079] In some optional embodiments, after receiving the local eSIM management notification data of the eSIM terminal device through the interface ESipa.HandleNotification in the GSMA SGP.32 standard specification, the eSIM IoT management platform parses the interface request data and modifies the corresponding eSIM data of the eSIM terminal device in the eSIM IoT management platform. Ensure that the corresponding eSIM data of the eSIM terminal device and the eSIM IoT management platform, such as the Profile status, remain consistent.
