Abstract:
The present invention relates to a SIM multiplexing device that provides a mechanism for multiplexing multiple SIM cards into a single SIM device. The SIM Mux device interfaces to the host device via the host device's standard SIM slot. The SIM Mux application resides on the SIM Mux logic device and communicates with the device over the SIM slot's SIM I/O line using standard ISO-7816 messages. The SIM Mux application allows a user to select the active SIM slot via a SIM application interface and directs the logic device which SIM socket to activate on the shared SIM I/O line, thus enabling the user to utilize any one of the populated SIM cards at one time.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for maximizing network characteristics of a portable computer communication device by multiplexing multiple SIM cards into a single device comprising:\n (a) a portable computing communication device with a data processor, a long-range wireless communication system, memory, and at least one SIM card slot; (b) a control interface for communicating with a plurality of SIM cards including activating, deactivating, monitoring, and selecting from among said plurality of SIM cards based on the networking characteristics of each individual network for said plurality of SIM cards; (c) said host interface adapted to interface with the said SIM card slot of said portable computing communication device and for communicating with said control interface; (d) a plurality of SIM sockets, at least one of said plurality of SIM sockets being in electronic communication with said control interface; (e) software for managing the operation of said control interface and providing said portable computing communication device with information and controls relating to said plurality of SIM cards; (f) whereby an objective is enabled relative to said portable computing communication device or to the network characteristics associated with said portable computing communication device, said objective including one or more of the following:\n (i) network connectivity is increased; \n (ii) network costs are reduced; \n (iii) accuracy network communication is increased; \n (iv) network time required to respond is decreased; and \n (v) network errors are reduced.
