This disclosure is directed to systems and methods for implementing a virtualized subscriber module (SIM). In general, a device equipped with virtualization resources may be configured to load at least one virtualized SIM. Wireless communication resources in the device may be configured to access the at least one virtualized SIM when, for example, initializing a connection to a wireless network. Some embodiments may include more than one virtualized SIM. For example, a plurality of virtualized SIM may be loaded at the same time (e.g., for use in initializing connections to different wireless networks). In a different embodiment, a determination to be made as to which virtualized SIM to load based on, for example, the detection of available wireless networks. It may also be possible to load a single virtual machine (VM) to emulate various hardware-based SIMs based on, for example, varying information input into the virtual machine. |
