Introduction to Messaging

Messaging in wireless networks

Nokia's messaging approach is based upon a series of evolutionary steps. Text messaging has been enabled by Short Message Service (SMS), Picture Messaging brought along graphics, and Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) now enables digital image input.

The Short Message Service (SMS) is used as one bearer of Smart Messaging. Smart Messaging is a concept developed by Nokia for sending and receiving ring tones, picture messages, operator logos, business cards, and calendar requests. Since its introduction in 1997, Smart Messaging has become one of the most successful terminal-specific content delivery technologies and the de facto standard for the industry. Hundreds of millions of Nokia phones with this innovative feature have been delivered to the global market.

Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a new multiform communication that combines new forms of rich content, such as audio and video clips, photographs, and images, with text messaging. It is good news for service providers since the existing text-based services can now start carrying rich visual content. We believe that MMS will be a key mass-market service for content providers, mobile operators, application developers, and advertisers.
