Abstract:
A method for providing, e.g. by means of an application (S_APPa) installed on an Universal Integrated Circuit Card (108a),a response to a SCP80 command is described. Initially, a first SMS message is received, e.g. by means of a mobile device (10), from a remote server (MNO) and decrypted according to the protocol SCP80. Specifically, this first SMS message contains a first command requesting the execution of a proactive command. Once, the proactive command has been executed and a respective response has been obtained,a second SMS message (SMS3) is transmitted to the remote server (MNO) indicating that the response has been obtained. Next, a third SMS message (SMS4) is received from the remote server (MNO)and decrypted according to the protocol SCP80. Specifically, this third SMS message (SMS4) contains a second command (C-APDU2) requesting the transmission of a response message determined as a function of the proactive command response(RSP1). Accordingly, the response message (R-APDU1)may be generated, encrypted according to the protocol SCP80 and transmitted(SMS5) the remote server (MNO).
Abstract:
A method for transmitting at least one IP data packet to an IP address being associated with a host name is described. Specifically, in order to obtain the IP address associated with a host name, a first service message of the Short Message Service is transmitted to a Short Message Service gateway server (402), wherein the first service message comprising a host name resolution request for the host name. In response to this request, a second service message of the Short Message Service is received from the Short Message Service gateway server (402), wherein the second service message comprising the IP address associated with the host name. Finally, at least one IP data packet is transmitted to the IP address associated with the host name.
Abstract:
It's illustrated a method to detect a message compatible with the OTA standard (Over The Air) and affected by a wrong ciphering. The method comprises the steps of receiving the ciphered OTA message; deciphering the OTA message; reading a counter field (PCNTR) of padding bytes in the deciphered OTA message and reading corresponding padding bytes in the OTA message deciphered; detecting at least one bit 1 in at least one of the padding bytes of the OTA message deciphered, said at least one bit 1 being indicative of the wrong ciphering.
Abstract:
An apparatus has a data store configured to store access activity information. The access activity information indicates which one or more of a plurality of different access parameter sets is active. The data store is also configured to store access defining information, which defines, at least for each active access parameter set, a number of channels, location information of said channels, and interleaving information associated with said channels.
Abstract:
A communication interface (921) for interfacing a transmission circuit (901) with an interconnection network (701), wherein the transmission circuit (901) requests via a transmission request transmission of a predetermined amount of data. In particular, the communication interface (921) receives data segments from the transmission circuit (901), stores the data segments in a memory (922), and verifies whether the memory (922) contains the predetermined amount of data. In the case where the memory (922) contains the predetermined amount of data, the communication interface (921) starts transmission (924) of the data stored in the memory (922). Instead, in the case where the memory (922) contains an amount of data that is less than the predetermined amount of data, the communication interface (921) determines a parameter that identifies the time that has elapsed since the transmission request or the first datum received from the aforesaid transmission circuit, and verifies whether the time elapsed exceeds a time threshold. In the case where the time elapsed exceeds the time threshold, the communication interface (921) starts transmission (924) of the data stored in the memory.
