LG Uplus Corp and its global partners have developed cellular module technology using Universal Integrated Circuit Card (iUICC) solutions that do away with Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) cards in mobile devices.
The partners include cellular chipset developer Sony Semiconductor Israel, German digital security solutions provider Giesecke+Devrient, and local communication module maker NTmore.
The latest technology will allow manufacturers to produce smaller devices with the space saved for a SIM card and related components.
The iUICC implements a communication chipset's SIM functionality that is responsible for voice and data connection.
LG Uplus plans to initially use iUICC technology on the Internet of Things products, such as for tracking devices and outdoor inspection equipment.
LG Uplus is South Korea's third-largest mobile carrier.
