A. SIM DATA
SIM cards contain data used to authenticate and
identify subscribers on the network. The most
important of these are the ICCID, IMSI,
Authentication Key (Ki), Local Area Identity (LAI)
and Operator-Specific Emergency Number. Data
pertaining to the carrier such as the SMSC (Short
Message Service Center) number, Service Provider
Name (SPN), Service Dialing Numbers (SDN),
Advice-Of-Charge parameters and Value Added
Service (VAS) are also held. The storage capacity of
this module varies from 32KB to 128KB.

IV.VIRTUAL SIM
Mobile phones provide a wide array of services and
the most important being wireless communication.
Every mobile phone user can subscribe to the above
mentioned services provided by multiple service
providers. User specific carrier data which
authenticates a particular user is stored in smart cards
called SIM cards. Successful registration configures a
mobile user to the desired service provider. A SIM
card at the most basic level is a memory chip with
data pertinent to a specific user pre-loaded. When
plugged into a mobile device, data from the SIM is
retrieved thereby creating an identity for the device.
