Network-dependent features

SMS and EMS messaging

The T290i/T290c is capable of sending and receiv- ing SMS and EMS messages, and linked mes- sages.

•With the Short Messaging Service, a user can send text messages containing up to 160 char- acters to and from GSM mobile stations

•With the linked SMS, the user can link up to 10 SMS messages together to create a longer message (network-dependent service)

A Service Center (SC) acts as a a storage and for- warding center. SMS consists of two basic serv- ices:

•Mobile Originated SMS

•Mobile Terminated SMS

For Mobile Originated SMS, an SMS message is sent from a Mobile Station to the SMS-C where it is forwarded to its destination. This can be another Mobile Station, or a terminal in the fixed network.

A Mobile Terminated SMS is delivered when an SMS message is forwarded from the SMS-C to a Mobile Station. When the Mobile Station receives the message, it returns a delivery report saying the transfer was successful.
