Short Message Template ID Processing for Mobile Terminals
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for converting short messages to multimedia messages increase the workload of short message service centers, lead to content adaptation distortions, occupy excessive network resources, and require significant storage space on receiving devices.
Innovation Solution
A method where the sending party includes a template ID with the short message text, allowing the receiving party to combine the text with a local template, reducing the need for centralized processing and network traffic, and enabling the creation of multimedia messages without increasing the burden on the short message service center.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the short message service center executes message analysis and content adaptation to generate multimedia messages, then the multimedia message service can be provided, but the workload of the short message service center increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the template storage and message composition functionality from the short message service center and places it in the mobile terminal. The service center only needs to send the original short message, while the terminal locally stores templates and automatically composes multimedia messages by combining received messages with stored templates, thereby reducing the service center's workload while maintaining multimedia message service capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile terminal performs self-service by automatically retrieving stored templates and composing multimedia messages locally without requiring the service center to execute content adaptation. The terminal autonomously completes the message composition process using its local template library, eliminating the need for centralized processing.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the short message service center generates new multimedia messages through content adaptation, then personalized service is provided, but content adaptation distortion occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-storing multiple templates in the mobile terminal before message reception. These templates are prepared in advance with various formats and styles. When a message is received, the terminal quickly matches and selects the most appropriate pre-stored template, ensuring high precision in content adaptation without requiring real-time processing that could cause distortion.
3Ease of operation
If the generated multimedia message is transferred from the short message service center to the receiving party based on WAP, then the message is delivered, but network traffic increases and more network resources are occupied
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the message composition process from the service center and performs it locally at the terminal. Only the original short message text needs to be transmitted over the network, while the multimedia templates are stored locally in the terminal. This extraction of composition functionality dramatically reduces network traffic since only minimal text data is transmitted instead of complete multimedia messages.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal uses local copies of templates stored in its memory to generate multimedia messages. Instead of transmitting template data over the network, the terminal retrieves pre-stored template copies locally and combines them with the received message text, eliminating the need to transfer large amounts of template data and reducing network resource occupation.
4Adaptability or versatility
If the receiving party frequently receives multimedia messages, then communication interestingness is enhanced, but relatively large storage space is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the templates universal by storing them in the mobile terminal where they can serve multiple purposes and be reused for many different messages. A single template can be applied to numerous incoming messages, creating diverse multimedia outputs without requiring separate storage for each message. This multi-functionality allows frequent multimedia message generation while consuming minimal storage space.

AI summary
A method for processing a short message is provided in the present invention, which includes that a sending party editing short message text and sending a short message including the short message text and a template identifier (ID) to a short message service center; and a receiving party receiving the short message sent from the short message service center, analyzing to obtain the template ID included in the short message, then finding a template with a same template ID, and combining the template that is found with the short message text to be displayed. With the scheme of the present invention, directly sending the short message between the sending party and the receiving party can just achieve the effect of enhancing the interestingness of the short messages without increasing the processing burden of the short message service center and the occupation of the network resources.
