DELIVERING A RADIO PHONE SHORT MESSAGING SERVICE MESSAGE FORMAT WITHIN AN APPLICATION LAYER INTERNET PROTOCOL MESSAGE
First Claim
1. A method of providing a first messaging service on a second messaging service, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) encoding an original text message into a Short Messaging Service (SMS) format of the first messaging service to produce a first encoded message;
(b) encoding the first encoded message into an application layer Internet Protocol (IP) message format of the second messaging service to produce a second encoded message;
(c) transmitting the second encoded message on a radio protocol;
(d) receiving second encoded message on the radio protocol;
(e) decoding the second encoded message to produce the first encoded message;
(f) delivering the first encoded message to a server; and
(g) decoding the first encoded message to produce the original text message.

Abstract
A method and apparatus wirelessly transmits messages from a first messaging service such as the Short Messaging Service (SMS) on a on a second messaging service such as a channel established by the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). An original text message is encoded into a Short Messaging Service format of the first messaging service to produce a first encoded message. The first encoded message is encoded into a Session Initiation Protocol format of the second messaging service to produce a second encoded message, transmitted on a radio protocol. The second encoded message is received and decoded to produce the first encoded message. The first encoded message can be delivered to a server and decoded to produce the original text message.

11. A wireless apparatus for transmission of encoded messages comprising:
-
A Short Messaging Service (SMS) encoder for encoding an original text message into a Short Messaging Service (SMS) format to produce a first encoded message; an application layer Internet Protocol (IP) messaging encoder operatively coupled to the Short Messaging Service (SMS) encoder to encode the first encoded message into an application layer Internet Protocol (IP) messaging format to produce a second encoded message; and A transceiver operatively coupled to the application layer Internet Protocol (IP) messaging encoder to wirelessly transmit the second encoded message on a wireless protocol. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
