Method and system for end-to-end communication between a universal integrated circuit card and a remote entity over an IP-based wireless wide area network and the internet

摘要

End-to-end communication between a UICC and a remote node on a network without requiring implementation of special purpose protocols at the remote node. The UICC operates to transmit a command using a first protocol from the UICC to the terminal to request the terminal to open a data channel to the network. The wireless terminal operates to, in response to the request to open a data channel, attempt to open a channel to the network. Upon indication that a data channel has successfully been opened: the UICC operates to transmit datagrams of a second protocol to the wireless terminal using the first protocol. The wireless terminal operates to receive the datagrams from the UICC and to transmit the datagrams received from the UICC to the network using the second protocol. The wireless terminal operates to receive datagrams of the second protocol from the remote entity and to transmit the datagrams from the remote entity to the UICC using the first protocol.
