Apparatus and Method for updating the configuration of the data memory of a chip card of a mobile terminal

摘要

The updating arrangement comprises a memory (108) for storing an actual profile (114) of a mobile terminal (104) and for storing a desired profile (116) of the terminal. A processor (110) and software (120) determine a differential profile (122) with respect to which the actual profile (114) differs from the desired profile (116). A smart card interface (112) transmits the differential profile to the terminal for updating its configuration. The memory (108) for storing the actual profile includes a databank for storing an actual profile of a different card, with the identification of the card as a key. Another databank is used for storing different desired profiles. Independent claims are provided for a transmitter of short messages to mobile equipment, for a computer program for updating configuration of equipment, for updating method, and for short message transmission method.
