Method of transmitting and receiving multimedia data using short message service in portable radio telephone
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting a multimedia short message using a short message service in a portable radio terminal, comprising the steps of:
- (a) editing the multimedia short message;
(b) receiving an entry of a transmission key after completion of the multimedia short message editing;
(c) receiving an entry of a telephone number of an opposite portable radio terminal to which the multimedia short message is to be transmitted after the entry of the transmission key;
(d) determining, after the entry of the telephone number, whether an amount of data of the edited multimedia short message exceeds a reference transmission capacity;
(e) creating a plurality of sub-multimedia short messages by dividing the amount of data of the multimedia short message by the reference transmission capacity after determining in step (d) that the reference transmission capacity is exceeded; and
(f) sequentially transmitting the plurality of sub-multimedia short messages to the telephone number.

Abstract
A portable radio terminal system, wherein during transmission a multimedia short message is edited, and if the amount of data of the edited multimedia short message exceeds the reference transmission capacity, then a plurality of sub-multimedia short messages are created, with each sub-multimedia short message having a reference transmission capacity and being sequentially transmitted to an opposite telephone number. During reception, it is checked whether or not a received multimedia short message is a sub-multimedia short message, and if so, it is checked whether or not the received sub multimedia short message is the final one. If the received sub multimedia short message is determined to be the final one, then a multimedia short message is constructed by combining all the received sub-multimedia short messages.

24. A method of receiving a multimedia short message using a short message service in a portable radio terminal, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) determining whether or not a received short message is the multimedia short message when the short message is received;
(b) determining whether or not the multimedia short message is composed of sub-multimedia short messages after determining in step (a) that the short message is the multimedia short message;
