These DCCH packets are used to transfer essential information into the
devices.
Information like a call is in coming
Paging signals from the Base stations, to work out if a handover is
needed
One of these packet formats is called SMS point to point messaging,
Paging, access control channel (SPACH)
This message type can be used to carry a text message.
Advantage of this method is a text message can still be delivered during
a phone conversation.

SMS OVERVIEW
SMS supports the sending and receiving of text, images, animation and
sound
SMS messages are originated and received by Short Messaging Entities
(SME). Examples of SMEs are: mobile phones; servers; personal computers

3.
Home Location Register (HLR) - a database used for permanent storage and management
of user/subscriber profiles
4. Inter-Working MSC For Short Message Service (SMS-IWMSC) - receives messages from the MSC or
SGSN and forwards them to the SC
5. Mobile Service Centre (MSC) performs switching functions for mobile stations in a geographical area
Visitor Location Register (VLR) - a database that contains temporary information about
roaming subscribers. The MSC and the VLR are always on the same platform.
6. Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) performs packet switching functions for mobile stations in a
geographical area. The SGSN is used instead of the MSC when SMS info is transferred over GPRS.
7. Mobile Station (MS) a device on the mobile network capable of receiving and sending
short messages
Short Message Mobile Terminated (SM-MT) - to transmit a message from the short
message service centre to the mobile station. SMS-DELIVER PDU (Protocol Data Unit)
Short Message Mobile Originated (SM-MO) to transmit a message from mobile station to
service centre SMS-SUBMIT PDU
SMS allows message delivery to handsets either active/in-use or powered of
Mobile stations receive transport data protocol units (TPDU) denoted as SMS-Deliver
Mobile stations send transport data protocol units (TPDU) denoted as SMS-Submit
Note: the TPDU contains the user data (the short message)
SMS protocol permits request of message delivery confirmation report
SMS messages contain up to 140 octets which is equivalent to:
Validity Period is the service element that indicates the time period for which the SMSC
will guarantee the existence of the short message when attempting to deliver it
Service Centre Time Stamp is the service element that indicates the time stamp of
message arrival at the SMSC
Protocol Identifier is the service element in to indicate higher layer protocol or indicates
inter-working with certain types of telemetic services (e.g. paging, email)
More Messages to Send is the service element by which a SMSC informs the MS that there
is one or more messages waiting in the SC to be sent to the MS
Priority is the service element indicating that delivery of the message will be attempted
regardless of the MS being temporarily absent or having no free memory
Message Waiting is the service element that enables the mobile network to provide the HLR,
SGSN and VLR with the information that there is a message waiting in the originating SMSC
for a MS
Alert Service Centre is the service element used by mobile networks to inform an SMSC
that a previously unreachable MS (temporarily absent or no memory) is ready to receive
messages
Provision of value-added services such as e-mail, voice mail, and fax mail
integration,reminder service, stock and currency quotes, and airline
schedules. Provision of key administrative services such as advice of
charge, over-the-air downloading, and service provisioning

SHORT MESSAGE SERVICE CENTRE Short Message service Centre plays a central role in the management of SMS message
SMSC
origination and SMS message deliveryThe SMS message will be stored at this location on a
FIFO basis .If the device is turned on, the message will be forwarded to that location
Each SMS-Deliver to a MS must have unique time stamp with one second accuracy
Only one outstanding SMS-Deliver (i.e. message for which a report not yet received)
SMS standard allows concatenation of messages to enable transmission of longer messages (i.e.
messages longer than 140 octets)
Short Messages may be compressed with algorithms described in GSM 03.42
If compressed message are greater than 140 octets, then the messages can be concatenated
In North America wireless subscribers can address text messages using 5-digit numbers (short
codes)
Short codes are being used to price and market services (e.g charge back to application provider)
Service gateway products are available that address multi-network (GSM/CDMA) and multi-protocol
(e.g. EMI/OIS) inter-working
Security is an emerging concern similar to that with e-mail, for example:
SPAM sending of unsolicited messages and ads via SMS (e.g. to entice users to call numbers
that have a high per minute charge)
Virus - resend of message to all numbers in the phones address book (e.g. via a Trojan Horse)
Identity Theft - retrieval of personal information from a SIM (Subscriber Interface Module) card
SMS POLICY
Send the first message in queue
Send the first message in queue to the same
destination address as the new message
Do not send if messages exist to the same
destination address as the new message.
Use only the retry table
Do not send anything, use only retry table

APPLICATIONTO- MOBILE
MESSAGING
Nonmobile entities that submit messages to, or receive messages from an SMSC are known asExternal Short Message
Entities (ESMEs).
The SMPP protocol defines a set of operations for the exchange of short messages between an ESME and an SMSC the
data that an ESME application must exchange with an SMSC during SMPP operations.
Subscribers to an SMS-capable Cellular Network may receive short messages on a Mobile Station (MS) from one or
more ESMEs. The means whereby these messages arrive at the ESME via an interface other than SMPP is beyond the
scope of this document. However, examples such ESME applications include:Voicemail alerts originating from a VPS (Voice Processing System), indicating voice
messages at a customers mailbox.
Numeric and alphanumeric paging services
Information services. For example, an application that enables mobile subscribers to query
currency rates or share-price information from a database or the WWW and have it
displayed as a short message on the handsets.
Calls directly dialled or diverted to a message-bureau operator, who forwards the message
to the SMSC, for onward delivery to a subscribers handset.
A fleet management application that enables a central station to use the SMSC to
determine the location of its service vehicles and notify the closest vehicle of a service
request in their area.
Telemetry applications. For example, a house-hold meter that transmits a short message to
a utility companys billing system to automatically record customer usage.
WAP Proxy Server. A WAP Proxy Server acts as the WAP gateway for wireless internet
applications. A WAP Proxy Server may select an SMS or USSD bearer for sending WDP
datagrams to and receiving WDP datagrams from a mobile station.

This parameter can contain either an IMSI or a TMSIThe TMSI can be provided if it is received from the HLR. The IMSI is
used if the use of the LMSI is not available.
This parameter is omitted in the mobile terminated subsequent SM transfers.

The short message transfer protocol data unit received from the Service Centre is inserted in this parameter. A short
message transfer protocol data unit may also be inserted in this parameter in the
message delivery acknowledgement from the MSC or from the SGSN to the Service Centre.
More Messages To Send:
The information from the MMS indication received from the Service Centre is inserted in this parameter.
To avoid the need for a mobile to be paged, authenticated etc. for each message waiting in the Service Centre, the SC
may indicate to the SMS-GMSC that there are more messages to send

ALERT-SC-MSISDN- ALERT
The Alert-SC is the service element, which may be provided by some GSM PLMNs, to
inform the SC that an MS
1) to which a delivery attempt has failed because the MS is not reachable or because the
MS memory capacity was exceeded;
2) which is now recognized by the PLMN:
a) to have resumed operation (e.g. to have responded to a paging request); or
b) to have memory newly available (which implies that the mobile is reachable).
is again ready to receive one or more short messages. T
The SC may - on reception of an Alert-SC - initiate the delivery
2.The HLR is not aware that the subscriber is not reachable (this can happen if we
dont shut down the phone properly and just disconnect the battery), in that case
the HLR will reply with IMSI number and MSC address and when the MSC will
try to deliver the message it will fail. After that the SC will send an Inform
message to the HLR indicating that his record about the MS is incorrect.
