The application for the patent was published on June 05, 2026, under issue no. 23/2026.
Abstract: A user equipment (UE) for handling slice information with single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) mapping for universal integrated circuit card (UICC) processor is provided. The UE operates by determining whether a baseband processor of the UE is in a busy state. Based on a determination that the baseband processor is not in the busy state, the baseband processor sends a fetch message to a UICC processor of the UE, where the fetch message is sent in response to receipt of a proactive-command-pending message from the UICC processor. The baseband processor receives a proactive-command message from the UICC processor, where the proactive-command message corresponds to a request for single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) information corresponding to one or more network slices. Finally, the baseband processor sends a response message with the S-NSSAI information to the UICC processor.
