SSH ETS 300 608:1995 ed.1

European digital cellular telecommunications system (Phase 2); Specification of the Subscriber Identity Module Mobile Equipment (SIM - ME) interface (GSM 11.11)

Scope

This Technical Specification defines the interface between the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) and the Mobile Equipment (ME) for use during the network operation phase of GSM as well as those aspects of the internal organisation of the SIM which are related to the network operation phase. This is to ensure interoperability between a SIM and an ME independently of the respective manufacturers and operators. The concept of a split of the Mobile Station (MS) into these elements as well as the distinction between the GSM network operation phase, which is also called GSM operations, and the administrative management phase are described in the Technical Specification GSM 02.17 [6].
