Abstract:
A SIM selection method of a wireless communication device connectable to a first SIM associated with a first subscription in relation to a first wireless communication system and a second SIM associated with a second subscription in relation to a second wireless communication system. The method comprises obtaining current values of first second and third parameters. The first parameters are applicable in relation to the first SIM and in relation to the second SIM, and comprise a geographical location of the wireless communication device. The second and third parameters obtained for the first SIM are applicable in relation to the first SIM only and the second and third parameters obtained for the second SIM are applicable in relation to the second SIM only. The current values of the third parameters are based on values of the third parameters associated with the geographical location and uploaded to a server by a plurality of other wireless communication devices. The method also comprises receiving a SIM utilization request from an application of the wireless communication device and selecting one of the first SIM and the second SIM for utilization by the application based on the current values of the first parameters, the second parameters, and the third parameters. Corresponding computer program product, SIM selector and wireless communication device are also disclosed.
