White Paper T630/T628

Benefits

Essentially enabling the mobile terminal to serve as image processor and conveyor, Multimedia Mes- saging accommodates the exchange of important visual information as readily as it facilitates fun. Business and leisure usage of MMS will be dynam- ically merged, resulting in enhanced personal effi- ciency for users and increased network activity for operators. In short, MMS affords total usage for total communication

Because MMS uses WAP as its bearer technology and is being standardized by 3GPP, it has wide industry support and offers full interoperability, which is a major benefit to service providers and end users. Ease-of-use resulting from both the gradual steps of the messaging evolution and the continuity of user experience gained from interop- erability is assured.

The MMS server, through which MMS messages are sent, supports flexible addressing (to both nor- mal phone numbers (MSISDN) and e-mail accounts), which makes user interface more friendly and allows greater control for operators. The MMS server, moreover, is responsible for the instant delivery feature of MMS.

MMS technical features

The MMS standard, just like SMS, offers store-and- forward transmission (instant delivery) of mes- sages, rather than a mailbox-type model. MMS is a person-to-person communications solution, mean- ing that the user gets the message directly into the mobile phone. He or she doesn’t have to call the server to get the message downloaded to the mobile phone. Unlike SMS, the MMS standard uses WAP as its bearer protocol. MMS will take advantage of the high speed data transport tech- nologies EDGE and GPRS and support a variety of image, video and audio formats to facilitate a com- plete communication experience.

Architecture

The MMS Centre (MMS-C) is comprised of the MMS Server, the MMS Proxy-Relay and the MMS Store. The MMS Centre is the central element of the MMS network architecture, providing storage and operational support, enabling instant delivery of multimedia messages from terminal-to-terminal and terminal-to-e-mail, and supporting flexible

addressing. The centre’s MMS Proxy-Relay inter- acts with the application being run on the MMS- enabled terminal to provide various messaging services. WAP is used as bearer of an MMS mes- sage between the MMS-C and the MMS client (application). The WAP Gateway is used for delivery and retrieval of messages.
