System for interconnecting a remote server with a short message server center (SMSC) via the internet

a remote server and server center technology, applied in messaging/mailboxes/announcements, data switching networks, wireless commuication services, etc., can solve the problems of high cost, high cost, connection and manpower to deploy this type of service, and slow implementation of this type of application, so as to eliminate the cost of each implementation, the cost is very low, and the cost is saved.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The invention is a system that allows a remote server to communicate with a message service center (SMSC) through the Internet using a hypertext transfer protocol (http). The system has several advantages, including cost savings, the use of existing short message service (SMS) protocols, and improved security. The system also allows for the transmission of longer messages and the recovery of optional parameters. The client and server modules have encoding and decoding means for SMS messages, and the system can be used for both forward and reverse message transmission. The invention also includes means for reattempting failed messages and for sharing the client and server modules among multiple remote servers."

Problems solved by technology

This results in the implementation of this type of application being slow due to the process involved in the installation of a dedicated line in the service company and to the work to be carried out with the complex and not very widespread SMS protocols.
Hence, the costs in material, connection and manpower to deploy this type of service are high.
Hence, permitting a remote server, dedicated to message services, to be able to send short messages to mobile telephony users, implies high costs and long implementation times for this type of service.

Embodiment Construction

[0009]To overcome the drawbacks mentioned above, the invention has developed a new system that permits the interconnection of a remote server with a message service centre to be carried out through Internet and more specifically the invention is characterized in that the remote server communicates with the SMSC via the Internet hypertext transfer protocol (http); for which both the SMSC and the remote server have means of bi-directional transmission / reception of short messages via http.

[0010]The transmission / reception means of the SMSC and of the remote server, are defined by a client module and a server module; client modules comprising a block for composing short messages adapted to the http protocol (SMS-http), which composes SMS messages adapted for their transmission via the Internet http protocol. Client modules also comprise a block for transmission of the SMS-http messages to the server module to which it is desired to send them.

[0011]Regarding the server modules of the SMSC...

Abstract

It allows the transmission of short messages (SMS) between a remote server (1) and a mobile telephone user (7), that is in communication with a short message service centre (5) via GSM network 10. It is characterized in that remote server (1) communicates with the short message server (5) via a hypertext transfer protocol (http), for which both server (5) and remote server (1) have means of bi-directional transmission / reception (2, 3, 8 and 9) of the short message via the Internet protocol (http).

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application is a Continuation of co-pending PCT Application No. PCT / ES02 / 00072, filed Feb. 15, 2002, which in turn, claims priority from Spanish Application Serial No. 200100348, filed Feb. 15, 2001. Applicants claim the benefits of 35 U.S.C. §120 as to the PCT application and priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 as to said Spanish application, and the entire disclosures of both applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.OBJECT OF THE INVENTION[0002]The object of the invention in question, as stated in the title to this descriptive specification, is to allow the bi-directional transmission of short messages between a remote server and a mobile telephone user through Internet, and more specifically on http protocol (hypertext transfer protocol).BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The transmission of short messages among mobile telephony users is well-known in the state of the art, for which said users communicate through the GSM ...
