Abstract

The disclosed subject matter provides a proactive device initiated mechanism for notifying a network device regarding device supported machine-type communication (MTC) features. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes identifying, by a device comprising a processor, machine-type communication related parameters of the device using a subscriber identity module application stored on a subscriber identity module card of the device. The method can further include generating, by the device using the subscriber identity module application, parameter information that identifies the machine-type communication related parameters of the device based on the identifying, and sending, by the device, the parameter information to a network server device of a wireless communication network based on the generating.
