Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a mobile radio terminal for sending a text short message by means of SMS and a mobile radio terminal designed to carry out this method.
  • a mobile phone can be used not only for voice communication, but also for sending text short messages, which are referred to as SMS (Short Message Service) messages in the GMS system.
  • SMS Short Message Service
  • Such short messages can be sent in various ways, including via a message center or an order service of the respective network by modem or from the Internet. In practice, however, the most common and most important case is the sending of a cell phone terminal.
  • SMS messages which are to be understood as packet-oriented user data
  • SMSC Short Message Service Center
  • Store-and-forward the service center receiving the short messages arriving from mobile terminals and then to the An SMSC is specified for the mobile radio terminal by a dialing number.
  • the short messages are transmitted between the mobile radio terminal and the service center using a connectionless transport protocol SM-TP (Short Message Transport Protocol), in which services of signaling Protocols can be used within the GSM network Protocols from the established mobile radio networks support such a transmission.
  • SM-TP Short Message Transport Protocol
  • an SMSC number is stored internally in the device, which is automatically used for " every entry of a text short message, ie all outgoing short messages use one and the same SMSC.
  • Mobile terminal devices are also known in which two SMSC numbers are stored and can be selected manually by the user.
  • the manual selection "complicates the process of sending a text short message and also offers only a limited flexibility.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method for operating a mobile radio terminal device which enables inexpensive text short messages to be sent without any operating difficulties for the user.
  • the invention includes the essential idea of activating the most cost-effective transmission path when sending a text short message with access to a routing database held for this purpose in accordance with the call number of the selected destination subscriber, ie the message via the number of that SMSC to which the lowest fee value is assigned. It also includes the idea of making this selection automatically on the end device, in particular on the basis of appropriate software, in order not to burden the user with additional selection and operating activities.
  • the routing database is stored on the SIM card or in the mobile radio terminal. It comprises SMSC numbers from SMS service providers, each with a fee list, in which fee values are assigned to specific call number ranges - for example the network codes of the individual mobile radio networks which can be reached.
  • the corresponding storage means are designed for storing a plurality of routing databases, each of which is valid for specific locations (in particular countries), and in addition selection means are provided which are in Depending on a signal characterizing the location of the mobile radio terminal, activate the access to the routing database assigned to the location.

  • the centerpiece of the proposed arrangement is a routing database 13 for storing a plurality of prefix-related routing data records 13i, in which a fee list of available SMSC numbers, each with an associated fee value, is stored under the address of an accessible area code.
  • the routing database can be addressed by a memory access controller 15, which in turn is connected to the output of the pre-selection buffer 11.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé d'exploitation d'un terminal de téléphonie mobile servant à envoyer un message textuel court par service d'envoi de messages courts. Selon ce procédé, une base de données de routage des numéros du centre de service d'envoi de messages courts est mise à disposition par les prestataires de services d'envoi de messages courts disponibles avec des listes de taxation correspondantes. Le routage le plus avantageux sur le plan économique pour acheminer le message textuel court est indiqué suite à une opération d'ajustement d'un numéro d'appel sélectionné avec la base de données de routage.
