The possibility of realizing the technical solution is provided by the existing ETSI standard GSM ll 14 - "SIM Application Toolkit". which makes it possible for an application on the SIM card to control certain functions of the mobile phone and also to conduct a dialogue with the user.
TEKNISKT PROBLEM Tjänster av typen "kontorstelefoni" eller "stadstelefoni", dvs tjänster där abonnenten ges olika möjligheter beroende på var kräver att man kan begränsa eller följa en Stöd för detta kan han befinner sig, mobiltelefonabonnents rörelse i nätet. implementeras i nätet men en sådan lösning kräver förhållande- vis stora investeringar och ger en ökad belastning på signaleringsnät och växlar - särskilt om funktionaliteten skall kunna differentieras mellan olika abonnenter. Den tekniska lösningen, som beskrivs i uppfinningen, innebär att en applikation pä SIM-kortet styr differentieringen av mobil- telefonens funktionalitet. Genom att applikationen ligger i mobiltelefonen minskas investeringen i nätet och undviks en ökad belastning på signaleringsnätet.TECHNICAL PROBLEM Services of the type "office telephony" or "city telephony", i.e. services where the subscriber is given different options depending on where he is, require that one can limit or follow a mobile phone subscriber's movement in the network. Support for this can be implemented in the network, but such a solution requires relatively large investments and places an increased load on signaling networks and switches - especially if the functionality is to be able to be differentiated between different subscribers. The technical solution, which is described in the invention, means that an application on the SIM card controls the differentiation of the mobile phone's functionality. By having the application in the mobile phone, the investment in the network is reduced and an increased load on the signaling network is avoided.
Vid snabb expansion av nyttjandet av ett mobiltelefonnät eller vid störningar i trafikavverkningen kan det vara svårt för mobiltelefonoperatören att skapa tillräcklig kapacitet i nätet.In the event of rapid expansion of the use of a mobile phone network or disruptions in traffic management, it may be difficult for the mobile phone operator to create sufficient capacity in the network.
För att på ett snabbt sätt åstadkomma ökad kapacitet för vissa abonnenter finns genom uppfinningen möjlighet att låta funktionaliteten variera för lägre prioriterade abonnemang.In order to quickly achieve increased capacity for certain subscribers, the invention provides the possibility of varying the functionality for lower priority subscriptions.
Detta innebär att funktionaliteten för vissa abonnenter begränsas om nätet blir drabbat av för hög belastning medan andra abonnenter kan ha större möjligheter att nyttja den fulla funktionaliteten.This means that the functionality for some subscribers is limited if the network is affected by excessive load, while other subscribers may have greater opportunities to use the full functionality.
Det är vanligt att en telefonanvändare initierar medflyttning till sitt mobila abonnemang då han förflyttar sig från sin kontorsarbetsplats med ett fast telefonabonnemang och kopplar bort medflyttningen vid återkomst. Detta arbete kräver ett engagemang och initiativ från telefonanvändaren och framför lO 15 lzo 25 30 520 304 . - ~ | .- - . ~ . « u allt förutsätts att det inte glöms bort. Genom uppfinningen kan dessa omkopplingar automatiseras.It is common for a telephone user to initiate a migration to his mobile subscription when he moves from his office workplace with a fixed telephone subscription and disconnects the migration upon return. This work requires a commitment and initiative from the telephone user and above all lO 15 lzo 25 30 520 304 . - ~ | .- - . ~ . « u everything is assumed that it is not forgotten. Through the invention these switchings can be automated.
TEKN|sK LÖSNING Uppfinningen beskriver en teknisk lösning, som möjliggör att abonnenten kan ges olika möjligheter beroende pà var han befinner sig eller beroende av tidpunkt. Genom uppfinningen kan förändringar i funktionaliteten regleras enligt ett schema eller ställas om genom uppdatering via mobiltelefonnätet.TECHNICAL SOLUTION The invention describes a technical solution, which enables the subscriber to be given different possibilities depending on where he is or depending on the time. Through the invention, changes in functionality can be regulated according to a schedule or changed by updating via the mobile phone network.
Enligt uppfinningen utnyttjas SIM Application Toolkit sá att funktionalitetsdifferentieringen sköts fràn SIM-kortet. Det enda som behöver installeras i telekommunikationsnätet är eventuellt stöd för uppdatering av funktionalitets- differentieringen.According to the invention, the SIM Application Toolkit is utilized so that the functionality differentiation is handled from the SIM card. The only thing that needs to be installed in the telecommunications network is possible support for updating the functionality differentiation.
Den tekniska lösningen bygger pä ett cellulärt mobiltelefonnät.The technical solution is based on a cellular mobile phone network.
FÖRDELAR Med hjälp av SIM Application Toolkit kan HELA funktionalitets- differentieringen skötas fràn SIM-kortet. Det enda, som behöver installeras i telekommunikationsnätet, är eventuellt stöd för OTA-uppdatering av funktionalitetsdifferentieringen.ADVANTAGES With the help of the SIM Application Toolkit, ALL functionality differentiation can be handled from the SIM card. The only thing that needs to be installed in the telecommunications network is possible support for OTA update of the functionality differentiation.
Funktionalitetsdifferentieringen kan ske ända ner pá cell-nivà vilket är av stor vikt vid t ex kontorstelefoni.Functionality differentiation can take place right down to the cell level, which is of great importance in, for example, office telephony.
Abonnentens funktionalitetsdifferentiering kan enkelt ändras genom att listan över tillàtna/önskade omraden finns pá SIM- kortet och kan uppdateras via datameddelande, t ex SMS.The subscriber's functionality differentiation can be easily changed by having the list of permitted/desired areas on the SIM card and can be updated via data message, e.g. SMS.
Det är mycket enkelt att differentiera funktionalitets- differentieringen, man kan t ex abonnera pa "lagtaxa" vid t ex kontoret, hemmet och sommarstugan och en högre taxa pà andra platser.It is very easy to differentiate the functionality, for example, you can subscribe to a "team rate" at the office, home and summer cottage and a higher rate at other locations.
Med hjälp av uppfinningen kan man anordna vissa abonnemang sà att funktionaliteten kan varieras. Vid hög belastning kan funktionaliteten för vissa abonnemang begränsas för att andra 10 15 20 '25 30 520 304 Q - - ; . æ prioriterade abonnemang skall få tillräcklig tillgång till nätkapacitet. Därigenom finns möjligheten att halla tillgängligheten tillräckligt hög i ett mobiltelefonnät även under snabb expansion av nyttjandet eller vid störningar i trafikavverkningen.With the help of the invention, certain subscriptions can be arranged so that the functionality can be varied. In the event of high load, the functionality of certain subscriptions can be limited so that other prioritized subscriptions have sufficient access to network capacity. This makes it possible to keep the availability sufficiently high in a mobile phone network even during rapid expansion of use or in the event of disruptions in traffic generation.
Genom att förändra funktionaliteten beroende pà var mobiltelefonen befinner sig kan också omkopplingar göras automatiskt i samband med att mobiltelefonen kommer in i ett identifierat område. Sá kan t ex medflyttning till fast abonnemang initieras dä mobiltelefonen flyttas till innehavarens kontorsarbetsplats. Pà samma sätt kan medflyttning till det fasta abonnemanget fràn mobiltelefonen avbrytas da mobiltelefonen flyttas frän innehavarens kontorsarbetsplats.By changing the functionality depending on where the mobile phone is located, switching can also be done automatically when the mobile phone enters an identified area. For example, moving to a fixed subscription can be initiated when the mobile phone is moved to the holder's office workplace. Similarly, moving to the fixed subscription from the mobile phone can be interrupted when the mobile phone is moved from the holder's office workplace.
Möjlighet finns ocksá att mobiltelefonen kan initiera omkopplingar i ett annat abonnemang, t ex initiera medflyttning, genom att sända ett datameddelande sàsom ett SMS- meddelande. Pà så sätt kan medflyttning fràn det fasta abonnemanget initieras dä mobiltelefonen flyttas fràn innehavarens kontorsarbetsplats och vice versa.It is also possible for the mobile phone to initiate switching to another subscription, e.g. initiating a move-along, by sending a data message such as an SMS message. In this way, a move-along from the fixed subscription can be initiated when the mobile phone is moved from the holder's office workplace and vice versa.

FÖREDRAGENUTFÖRWGSFORM Den tekniska lösningen utnyttjar möjligheten för applikationer i mobiltelefonen att styra funktioner och föra en dialog med användare och stationer i mobiltelefonnätet. Med hjälp av dessa funktioner ändras den funktionalitet, som användaren har tillgång till.PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The technical solution utilizes the ability of applications in the mobile phone to control functions and conduct a dialogue with users and stations in the mobile phone network. With the help of these functions, the functionality to which the user has access is changed.
Pa minnesenhet i mobiltelefonen finns lagrat uppgifter sà att tillgänglig funktionsomfattning kan identifieras för alla geografiska positioner där mobiltelefonen kan användas. Antag 910 15 20 .25 530 . . . . .. . , .. .. .. .. .. . . . t ex att om full funktionalitet gäller inom ett omrade och i alla övriga omràden är funktionaliteten begränsad till en viss Dà skall området med full funktionalitet (20) i ett och mängden tillåtna funktioner i övriga celler grupp av funktioner. kunna identifieras, t ex en begränsad mängd celler cellulärt nät, (21) skall vara identifierade.The memory unit in the mobile phone stores information so that the available range of functions can be identified for all geographical positions where the mobile phone can be used. Assume 910 15 20 .25 530 . . . . . . . , .. .. .. .. .. . . . . . e.g. if full functionality applies within one area and in all other areas the functionality is limited to a certain Then the area with full functionality (20) in one and the amount of permitted functions in other cells group of functions. can be identified, e.g. a limited amount of cells cellular network, (21) shall be identified.
Eftersom dessa uppgifter kan behöva ändras skall de kunna uppdateras. Via ett datameddelande, t ex ett SMS- (3), om geografiskt omràde för viss funktionalitet eller meddelande som sänds till mobiltelefonen ändras uppgifter funktionalitetsomfattningen för ett utpekat omràde mm.Since this information may need to be changed, it should be possible to update it. Via a data message, e.g. an SMS (3), about the geographical area for certain functionality or a message sent to the mobile phone, information changes the scope of functionality for a designated area, etc.
I ett cellulärt system finns uppgift lagrat i mobiltelefonen om i vilken cell, som mobiltelefonen befinner sig. Denna uppgift laddas till mobiltelefonen genom kommunikationen (3) mellan mobiltelefon och basstationen. Enligt uppfinningen förses applikationen, som reglerar begränsningen av funktionalitet, med erforderliga uppgifter för styrning av funktionaliteten.In a cellular system, information is stored in the mobile phone about which cell the mobile phone is in. This information is loaded to the mobile phone through communication (3) between the mobile phone and the base station. According to the invention, the application that regulates the limitation of functionality is provided with the necessary information for controlling the functionality.
I applikationen, som reglerar begränsningen av funktionalitet, kan finnas följande funktioner: 0 Applikationen övervakar när funktionaliteten skall förändras.The application, which regulates the limitation of functionality, may have the following functions: 0 The application monitors when the functionality should be changed.
Förändringarna kan bl a orsakas av att mobiltelefonen kommer in i en ny cell (ett annat omràde) eller att viss tidpunkt infallit. Orsaken kan ocksa vara att ett meddelande om att funktionaliteten skall förändras mottagits via mobiltelefonnätet. 0 När funktionaliteten ska ändras, t ex beroende pà att mobiltelefonen kommer in i en cell där annat funktionsomfàng eller annan prissättning ska gälla, uppmärksammas mobiltelefonanvändaren pä att funktionalitet eller prissättning förändras. Detta kan göras genom att en ljudsignal genereras och ett textmeddelande visas. Signal och textmeddelande översänds till mobiltelefonen t ex via ett datameddelande såsom ett SMS-meddelande. 10 15 20 25 30 520 304 . . . , f.The changes can be caused, among other things, by the mobile phone entering a new cell (another area) or by a certain time. The reason may also be that a message that the functionality is to be changed has been received via the mobile phone network. 0 When the functionality is to be changed, e.g. due to the mobile phone entering a cell where a different scope of functions or different pricing is to apply, the mobile phone user is informed that the functionality or pricing is changing. This can be done by generating an audio signal and displaying a text message. The signal and text message are transmitted to the mobile phone, e.g. via a data message such as an SMS message. 10 15 20 25 30 520 304 . . . , f.
För att begränsa utgàende samtal medverkar applikationen i etablering av nya samtal genom att alla samtalsuppkopplingar maste godkännas av applikationen före etableringen.To limit outgoing calls, the application participates in the establishment of new calls by requiring all call connections to be approved by the application before establishment.
För att begränsa inkommande samtal kan applikationen filtrera inkommande samtal. Samtal, som ej tilläts, medflyttas av applikationen till mobilsvarstjänst eller annat lämpligt nummer _ Om mobiltelefonen befinner sig i samtalsläge när en gräns passeras (tids- eller rumsgräns) där funktionaliteten förändras informeras abonnenten genom att en ljudsignal genereras och ett textmeddelande visas. Om samtal inte tilläts i det nya omradet kopplas samtalet ned eller dirigeras till talsvarsmaskin eller till annat nummer.To limit incoming calls, the application can filter incoming calls. Calls that are not allowed are forwarded by the application to a mobile voicemail service or another suitable number. _ If the mobile phone is in call mode when a boundary is crossed (time or space boundary) where the functionality changes, the subscriber is informed by generating an audio signal and displaying a text message. If calls are not allowed in the new area, the call is disconnected or routed to a voicemail service or to another number.
Alternativt kan samtalsuppkopplingen behàllas och extra avgift tas ut eller en annan taxa tillämpas. Denna möjlighet kan vara fördefinierad eller abonnentstyrd.Alternatively, the call connection can be maintained and an additional fee charged or a different tariff applied. This option can be predefined or subscriber-controlled.
Funktionalitetsdifferentieringen kan gälla bl a: Inkommande samtal tilläts ej eller tilläts endast fràn vissa nummer, riktnummer eller motsvarande.Functionality differentiation may apply to, among other things: Incoming calls are not allowed or are only allowed from certain numbers, area codes or equivalent.
Utgàende samtal tilläts ej eller tilläts endast till vissa nummer, riktnummer eller motsvarande.Outgoing calls were not allowed or were only allowed to certain numbers, area codes or equivalent.
Medflyttning av inkommande samtal tillåts ej.Transferring incoming calls is not allowed.
Vidarekoppling av inkommande samtal tilläts ej.Forwarding of incoming calls was not allowed.
Flerpartskonferens och pendling tilläts ej.Multi-party conferencing and commuting were not allowed.
Påbörjade samtal tilläts slutföras även om omràdesgränsen överskrids.Initiated calls were allowed to be completed even if the area limit was exceeded.
Samtal till nödnummer tilläts alltid.Calls to emergency numbers were always allowed.
Full funktionalitet men till växlande taxa kräver stöd i nätet eller i faktureringssystemet. Detta kan lösas t ex genom att utgående samtal, som gär utanför ett primärt omradet, där 10 15 20 25 30 35 520 304 8 Full funktionalitet men till växlande taxa kräver stöd i nätet eller i faktureringssystemet. Detta kan lösas t ex genom att där utgående samtal, som gàr utanför ett primärt omràdet, normal taxa gäller, dirigeras om eller ges ett prefix som tolkas av faktureringssystemet. Detta kan görs mha en funktion, som medger att applikationen i mobiltelefonen redigerar slaget nummer innan uppkoppling sker. Vid redan uppkopplat samtal kan nätet varskos om att mobiltelefonen förs in i ett område med annan taxa genom att applikationen sänder ett datameddelande t ex via SMS eller USSD till nätet.Full functionality but at variable rates requires support in the network or in the billing system. This can be solved, for example, by outgoing calls that are made outside a primary area, where 10 15 20 25 30 35 520 304 8 Full functionality but at variable rates requires support in the network or in the billing system. This can be solved, for example, by outgoing calls that are made outside a primary area, where normal rates apply, are redirected or given a prefix that is interpreted by the billing system. This can be done using a function that allows the application in the mobile phone to edit the dialed number before the connection is made. When a call is already connected, the network can be notified that the mobile phone is entering an area with a different rate by the application sending a data message, for example via SMS or USSD to the network.
Om funktionalitetsdifferentieringen är realiserad pà SIM-kort mäste det finnas en funktion, som verifierar att erforderlig funktionalitet finns i mobiltelefonen. När SIM-kortet initieras i mobiltelefonen kontrolleras mobiltelefonens funktionalitet och om den inte motsvarar behovet för funktionalitetsdifferentieringen kommer mobiltelefonen enbart att kunna användas för att ringa nödsamtal. uTFöFuNGsExEn/IPEL 1 GSM-NÄT Den tekniska lösningen bygger pà ETSI standarden GSM 11.14 - SIM Application Toolkit, som definierar kommandon och procedurer, som gör det möjligt för en applikation pà SIM- kortet att styra vissa funktioner hos mobiltelefonen och även föra en dialog med användaren. skall finnas en lista över de LAC där full funktionalitet ges. Denna lista kan vid behov uppdateras OTA (Over The Air) dvs mha ett datameddelande t ex ett SMS- meddelande (3), kortet med nya data.If the functionality differentiation is implemented on the SIM card, there must be a function that verifies that the required functionality is available in the mobile phone. When the SIM card is initialized in the mobile phone, the functionality of the mobile phone is checked and if it does not correspond to the need for the functionality differentiation, the mobile phone will only be able to be used to make emergency calls. IMPLEMENTATION EXECUTION/IPEL 1 GSM NETWORK The technical solution is based on the ETSI standard GSM 11.14 - SIM Application Toolkit, which defines commands and procedures that make it possible for an application on the SIM card to control certain functions of the mobile phone and also to conduct a dialogue with the user. There must be a list of the LACs where full functionality is provided. This list can be updated OTA (Over The Air) if necessary, i.e. by means of a data message, e.g. an SMS message (3), to the card with new data.
Lagrat pà SIM-kortet (1) (Location Area Code) och Cell ID (Basstations-ID) som transparent för användaren förser SIM- ME (2) information om aktuell LAC och Cell ID genom att ME mha " PROVI DE LOCAL INFORMATION " kan fàs att förse applikationen pà SIM-kortet med kommenderas att förse (MCC, MNC, LAC denna information avfrágas med ett mellan kommandot SIM-kortet med gällande Location Information och Cell ID), applikationen och ME överenskommet intervall. Alternativt 10 15 20 25 30 520 304 . ~ . . .- föredra då informationsutbyte mellan SIM och ME endast behöver ske vid ändrat LAC eller Cell ID.Stored on the SIM card (1) (Location Area Code) and Cell ID (Base Station ID) as transparent to the user, the SIM provides the ME (2) with information about the current LAC and Cell ID by the ME being commanded to provide the application on the SIM card with (MCC, MNC, LAC) with this information at an agreed interval between the command. Alternatively, the SIM card with the current Location Information and Cell ID, the application and the ME, is preferred when information exchange between the SIM and ME only needs to take place when the LAC or Cell ID changes.
Applikationen pä SIM jämför listan över LAC och Cell ID pà SIM med den Location Information, som ME förser applikationen med.The application on the SIM compares the list of LAC and Cell ID on the SIM with the Location Information that the ME provides to the application.
Beroende pà tjänstens utformning kan applikationen t ex fungera enligt följande.Depending on the design of the service, the application can, for example, function as follows.
När funktionaliteten ska begränsas: 0 Abonnenten bör uppmärksammas pà att han kommer in i ett omräde med annan funktionalitet eller förändrad prissättning t ex genom att en ljudsignal genereras och ett meddelande visas. Detta löses genom att SIM-kortet skickar kommandona "PLAY TONE" OCh "DISPLAY TEXT" till ME Vilket får denna att spela önskad ton och visa önskad textsträng.When functionality is to be restricted: 0 The subscriber should be made aware that he is entering an area with different functionality or changed pricing, for example by generating an audio signal and displaying a message. This is solved by the SIM card sending the commands "PLAY TONE" and "DISPLAY TEXT" to the ME, which causes it to play the desired tone and display the desired text string.
I Begränsning av utgående samtal utförs mha "Call Control by SIM", godkännas av applikationen pá SIM-kortet innan de kan vilket innebär att alla samtalsuppkopplingar mäste genomföras. 0 För begränsning av inkommande samtal kan applikationen medflytta inkommande samtal till Mobilsvar eller annat lämpligt nummer, detta görs mha "SEND SS"-kommandot i SIM Application Toolkit. 0 Om mobiltelefonen befinner sig i samtalsläge vid utträde ur tillàtet eller önskat omràde kan samtalet brytas genom att vidarekopplas, mha kommandot "SET UP CALL", till en talmaskin, som ger besked om anledningen till att samtalet brutits. tillfälligt, I stället för att bryta samtalet kan det avbrytas "on hold", talmaskin ges valet att mot extra avgift fortsätta samtalet t ex sättas och abonnenten kan av eller föra över samtalet till mobilsvarsfunktion. Även vid uppkopplat samtal kan användaren naturligtvis informeras genom text och ljudsignaler innan samtalet bryts.I Outgoing call restriction is carried out using "Call Control by SIM", which must be approved by the application on the SIM card before they can be made, which means that all call connections must be made. 0 To restrict incoming calls, the application can forward incoming calls to Voicemail or another suitable number, this is done using the "SEND SS" command in the SIM Application Toolkit. 0 If the mobile phone is in call mode when leaving the permitted or desired area, the call can be disconnected by being forwarded, using the "SET UP CALL" command, to a voice machine, which provides information about the reason for the call being disconnected. temporarily, Instead of disconnecting the call, it can be interrupted "on hold", the voice machine is given the option to continue the call for an additional fee, e.g., be set and the subscriber can disconnect or transfer the call to the voicemail function. Even when a call is connected, the user can of course be informed by text and audio signals before the call is disconnected.
Om viss funktionalitet skall ges blir utförandet samma som ovan men med eventuell möjlighet att utföra vissa funktioner sàsom: lO 15 20 25 30 520 304 lO -vu in 0 mobiloriginerade samtal till vissa bestämda nummer tillåts 0 medflyttning av inkommande samtal tillåts ej 0 påbörjade samtal tillåts slutföras även om områdesgränsen överskrids.If certain functionality is to be provided, the implementation will be the same as above but with the possibility of performing certain functions such as: lO 15 20 25 30 520 304 lO -vu in 0 mobile-originated calls to certain specific numbers are permitted 0 forwarding of incoming calls is not permitted 0 initiated calls are permitted to be completed even if the area limit is exceeded.
Full funktionalitet men till annan taxa kräver stöd i nätet eller i faktureringssystemet. Detta kan lösas t ex genom att utgående samtal, som går utanför ett specificerat område dirigeras om eller ges ett prefix som tolkas av faktureringssystemet. Detta kan görs mha "CALL CONTROL BY SIM", som medger att applikationen på SIM-kortet redigerar slaget nummer innan uppkoppling sker. Vid redan uppkopplat samtal kan nätet varskos om utträde ur området genom att applikationen sänder ett SMS-meddelande eller en USSD-sträng till nätet (kommandona "SEND SM" respektive "SEND USSD") Funktionalitetsdifferentieringen fungerar med GSM-telefoner som stödjer fas 2+. För att förhindra att kortet används i mobiltelefoner utan stöd för SIM Application Toolkit måste en funktion för kontroll av detta implementeras i applikationen på kortet. Denna funktion skulle kunna se ut enligt följande: SIM-kortet skall i följande två fall invalidera datafältet EFIMSI 0 Om mobiltelefonen under initieringen av SIM-kortet ej gör en "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" vilket innebär att den ej stödjer fas 2+. 0 Om mobiltelefonen sänder en "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" men inte stödjer de SIM Application Toolkit funktioner som krävs.Full functionality but at a different rate requires support in the network or in the billing system. This can be solved, for example, by redirecting outgoing calls that go outside a specified area or giving them a prefix that is interpreted by the billing system. This can be done using "CALL CONTROL BY SIM", which allows the application on the SIM card to edit the dialed number before connection is made. In the case of an already connected call, the network can be notified of leaving the area by the application sending an SMS message or a USSD string to the network (the commands "SEND SM" or "SEND USSD" respectively). Functionality differentiation works with GSM phones that support phase 2+. To prevent the card from being used in mobile phones without support for the SIM Application Toolkit, a function for checking this must be implemented in the application on the card. This function could look like this: The SIM card should invalidate the data field EFIMSI 0 in the following two cases. If the mobile phone does not perform a "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" during the initialization of the SIM card, which means that it does not support phase 2+. 0 If the mobile phone sends a "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" but does not support the required SIM Application Toolkit functions.
I de ovan nämnda fallen kommer alltså EFnß1 att invalideras vilket innebär att mobiltelefonen enbart kan användas för att ringa nödsamtal. Funktionen måste också återställa EFnßI när SIM-kortet flyttas till en godkänd mobiltelefon.In the above cases, EFnß1 will therefore be invalidated, meaning that the mobile phone can only be used to make emergency calls. The function must also reset EFnßI when the SIM card is moved to an approved mobile phone.
För att lösa detta skall EFnßI rehabiliteras om EF3ßI vid SIM- initieringen är invaliderad och "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" visar att 520 304 ll HA u. . u u ø - a. mobiltelefonen stödjer SIM Application Toolkit-funktioner som krävs.To solve this, EFnßI should be rehabilitated if EF3ßI at SIM initialization is invalidated and "PROFILE DOWNLOAD" shows that 520 304 ll HA u. . u u ø - a. the mobile phone supports the required SIM Application Toolkit functions.
Uppfinningen är inte begränsad till ovan redovisade utföringsformer utan kan därutöver underkastas modifikationer inom ramen för efterföljande patentkrav och uppfinningstanken.The invention is not limited to the embodiments described above but may also be subject to modifications within the scope of the following patent claims and the inventive concept.
