Service providing method and device using plurality of SIMs
An operation method of a first network entity in a wireless communication system, includes: receiving, from a terminal, a registration request message regarding a plurality of subscriber identity modules (SIMs); performing a procedure for registering the plurality of SIMs, based on the registration request message; determining priorities between at least one registered SIM; and transmitting, to the terminal, a registration accept message including information about the priorities.
1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a network entity, a first message including information indicating that the terminal is capable of supporting multiple subscriber identity modules (MUSIMs) and information associated with a service priority with respect to a subscriber identity module (SIM) for a current registration among a plurality of SIMs; and
receiving, from the network entity, a second message indicating whether the MUSIMs are supported in the network entity,
wherein the network entity is an access and mobility management function (AMF) or a mobility management entity (MME), and
wherein the information associated with the service priority indicates an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) voice service is prioritized over other services.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
releasing a radio resource control (RRC) connection associated with a first SIM, in case that a paging associated with a second SIM needs to be processed.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the network entity, information on a service type,
wherein the service type includes a voice service.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
processing a paging for the SIM included in the MUSIMs based on a priority of the paging.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein processing the paging comprises identifying that a paging for an IMS service is prioritized over a paging for other data services.
6. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
transmit, to a network entity, a first message including information indicating that the terminal is capable of supporting multiple subscriber identity modules (MUSIMs) and information associated with a service priority with respect to a subscriber identity module (SIM) for a current registration among a plurality of SIMs; and
receive, from the network entity, a second message indicating whether the MUSIMs are supported in the network entity,
wherein the network entity is an access and mobility management function (AMF) or a Mobility Management Entity (MME), and
wherein the information associated with the service priority indicates an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) voice service is prioritized over other services.
7. The terminal of claim 6 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
release a radio resource control (RRC) connection associated with a first SIM, in case that paging associated with a second SIM needs to be processed.
8. The terminal of claim 6 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
receive, from the network entity, information on a service type,
wherein the service type includes a voice service.
9. The terminal of claim 6 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
process a paging for the SIM included in the MUSIMs based on a priority of the paging.
10. The terminal of claim 9 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
identify that a paging for an IMS service is prioritized over a paging for other data services.
11. A method performed by a network entity in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a terminal, a first message including information indicating that the terminal is capable of supporting multiple subscriber identity modules (MUSIMs) and information associated with a service priority with respect to a subscriber identity module (SIM) for a current registration among a plurality of SIMs; and
transmitting, to the terminal, a second message indicating whether the MUSIMs are supported in the network entity,
wherein the network entity is an access and mobility management function (AMF) or a mobility management entity (MME), and
wherein the information associated with the service priority indicates an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) voice service is prioritized over other services.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein a radio resource control (RRC) connection associated with a first SIM is released, in case that paging associated with a second SIM needs to be processed.
13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the terminal, information on a service type,
wherein the service type includes a voice service.
14. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
processing a paging for the SIM included in the MUSIMs based on a priority of the paging.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein processing the paging comprises identifying that a paging for an IMS service is prioritized over a paging for other data services.
16. A network entity in a wireless communication system, the network entity comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
receive, from a terminal, a first message including information indicating that the terminal is capable of supporting multiple subscriber identity modules (MUSIMs) and information associated with a service priority with respect to a subscriber identity module (SIM) for a current registration among a plurality of SIMs; and
transmit, to the network entity, a second message indicating whether the MUSIMs are supported in the network entity,
wherein the network entity is an access and mobility management function (AMF) or a mobility management entity (MME), and
wherein the information associated with the service priority indicates an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) voice service is prioritized over other services.
17. The network entity of claim 16 ,
wherein a radio resource control (RRC) connection associated with a first SIM is released, in case that paging needs associated with a second SIM to be processed.
18. The network entity of claim 16 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to
transmit, to the terminal, information on a service type, and
wherein the service type includes a voice service.
19. The network entity of claim 16 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
process a paging for the SIM included in the MUSIMs based on a priority of the paging.
20. The network entity of claim 19 ,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
identify that a paging for an IMS service is prioritized over a paging for other data services.
