Short messaging service (SMS) is a supplementary ISDN service provided by GSM and is digital in nature. SMS allows GSM subscribers and base stations to transmit alphanumeric pages of limited length (160 7 bit ASCII characters) while simultaneously carrying normal voice traffic. SMS also provides cell broadcast, which allows GSM base stations to repetitively transmit ASCII messages with as many as fifteen 93-character strings in concatenated fashion. SMS may be used for safety and advisory applications, such as the broadcast of highway or weather information to all GSM subscribers within reception range.
