Giesecke & Devrient announced that its carrier-grade over-the-air (OTA) platform now offers advanced SIM and mobile device management for handsets on LTE networks.
The expansion of SmartTrust DP capabilities provides mobile operators with a common, single platform for managing subscriber equipment regardless of network technology, the company said.
Through the use of pull functionality within the client, the SIM can now initiate as well as establish an IP session with the SmartTrust DP HTTP server module.
Additionally, SmartTrust DP supports polling by the SIM client enabling periodic checks by the SIM client to determine if a management session is required.
The addition of pull and poll functionality, complementing existing push capabilities, allows for the implementation of true client-server applications on the SIM that take advantage of the greatly increased bandwidth afforded by a LTE network, Giesecke & Devrient says.
