Abstract

A method for downloading an application is disclosed by the present invention which is implemented based on an application downloading system including a smart card, a mobile terminal, an Over The Air (OTA) server and an outside-card entity management platform. The outside-card entity management platform establishes a connection with the smart card through the OTA server and mobile terminal, selects a security domain for application downloading in the smart card after receiving an application downloading request from the smart card, establishes a security channel with the smart card, and downloads the application to the smart card based on the security channel. By using the system and method for downloading an application of the present invention, the application may be downloaded to the smart card over a mobile communication network at a high speed, in real time, conveniently and safely, with user experience being improved.
