METHOD FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF A PERIPHERAL UNIT BY A SIM CARD IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION TERMINALS, AND PERIPHERAL UNIT FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD

摘要

A wireless communication terminal includes a SIM card (2) and a memory card (3) equipped with respective radio transceivers (4, 5) for allowing a terminal-independent and network-independent radio communication between both cards. Server and client applications on the controllers of the transceivers allow the SIM (2) to manage the memory card (3). The memory card tries (101) to become connected to the SIM. If connection is successful (102, 104), the SIM authenticates the memory card (105, 106) and then configures it, in secure mode, to set the access policy to the memory card itself (107).
