Pr oduct overview
The T226 mobile phone is designed to include an impressive set of features for a very reasonable price. The fo cus is on messaging, music, gaming, imaging, and connectivity. EMS picture messaging (text messaging with pictures and sounds), email, MMS (Multimedia messaging), and a snap-on camera accessory are all supported.
This phone offers a fast and satisfying mobile Internet experience.The T226 is a dual band (850/1900MHz) phone scheduled to be available during the third quarter of 2003.
Key functions and features
Multimedia Messaging - Digital greetings
Reacting to the enormous popularity of mobile phone messaging, Sony Ericss on has inc orp orated the latest messaging stan dards into the T226 phone , along with a color display for an enhanced imaging experience.
Say it in words, say it with pictures, animate it, add sound. Multimedia birthday and holiday greetings are great fun to put together using your phone. On vacation, use your mobile phone and accessories to send a digital postcard with stylized text, digital pictures of wher e you are, and aut hen tic soun d clips to friends and family back home.
With MMS, the subscription applications get more interesting, for example stock information, movie trailers and weather reports.
Polyphonic ring signals
Pleasing to the ear, polyphonic ring signals play several tones simultaneously making a more musical sound. The word “polyphony” means playing with several tones at the same time. Almost all music that we listen to consists of polyphonic melodies. Polyphonic sounds and ring signals are finally becoming widely used in GSM mobile phones.
polyphonic sound format - iMelody.
The development from the iMelody format to the MIDI format means a revolution to the sound quality. The MIDI files are small, and perfect for mobile devices which have limited storage capacity.
MIDI - Musical Instrument Digital Interface - is a specification for a communications protocol principally used to control electronic musical instruments. MIDI is today a well known standard used by musicians, composers, arrangers and so forth.
A MIDI signal or file does not contain any music, but instead it contains binary data (information) of how a melody is played. When these da ta reach a syn thesizer, the synthesizer will translate the binary data to music, when connected to an amplifier with speakers so that the sound becomes audible.
Please visit www.midi.org for more information.
Downloadable games
Gaming is already a very popular feature in Sony Ericsson phones. In addition to pre-installed games, now the mobile Int er net port al offers the possibi li ty of downloading games. Network operators may also offer downloadable games to their customers as an added value offer. Users can add new games and skill levels to further enhance the entertainment value of Sony Ericsson phones.
T226 downloading of games is made possible by a true virtual machine. The Sony Ericsson portal for downloading of free games is accessible via the WAP browser. The openness of the downloadable games solution is dedicated to provide an enhanced gaming experience.
The downloadable games can fully take advantage of the phone’s interfaces, such as TCP/IP, SMS, vibrator and backlights. The virtual machine executes the downloading of games for the optimal game experience. The user can download an unlimited number of games as long as the file system allows it, i.e. until the phone memory is full.
The T226 wil l contai n sever al po lyp honic r ing sign als . Users can share r in g signals, and download them f rom the Web.
Early Ericsson mobile phones supported a proprietary non-polyphonic format called eMelody. Due to the musical limitations of eMelody, and as it became popular to create, send and download ring melodies, Ericsson and Sony Ericsson, tog et her with other manufacturers created the more advanced non-
The downloading concep t inc lud es cer tification of the games, which makes it possible to create a revenue chain and favorable business opportunities for network operators and content providers. The virtual machine uses true sandbox technology for highest level of security. The software development kits are available via www.mophun.com

Imaging
With a digital camera attached to your phone, you can take, view , store and se nd high-qua lity pic tures over the air to another mobile phone, as MMS m es sa ges, or you can send t hem to an email ad dress or Web photo albu m. Downloading images from the Web is another alternative. Thousands of online image collections already exist on the Web and many sites are already gearing up to include images for use in mobile phones.
There are v ariou s ways t o in corp orate imag es and other multimedia into your communication. You can attach pictures to people listed in your phonebook and have pictures or icons of the caller identifying them in your display.
The pictures are stored in the picture browser in the phone. From here, the user can select view, thumbnail or full view, as well as keep track of the number and size of the pictures stored in the phone.
WAP
Your T226 supports the WAP 1.2.1 browser and protocol stack, as well as the WAP 2.0 browser. With WAP 1.2.1, your phone can read WML pages and use WTLS class 3 security. The added benefit of supporting the WAP 2.0 browser is the capability to navigate to pages written in XHTML Mobile Profile and XHTML Basic markup languages. These two languages, subsets of the Web standard XHTML, are supported by all major Web browsers. An XHTML page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in any standard Web browser. All of the basic XHTML features are supported, including text, images, links, checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings, horizo ntal rules and lists. In addi tion to WML, XHTML Mobile Profile, and XHTML Basic, your phone supports the markup language iHTML.
With the WAP 2.0 browser, cascading style sheets (CSS) and cookies are supported. CSS enhances content presentation and style. Cookies are often used by Web sites to store site-specific information in the browser between visits to the site. Cookies are often used by e-commerce sites (shopping carts and wish lists), and to save the user from entering the same information more than once.
Full graphic 512 color display
Using Picture Enhancement Technology, the T226 delivers 512 colors on a large display that enhances viewing, facilitating high-quality multimedia messaging, and personalized imaging. The standby display looks like the desktop in a computer, with the
menus presented as icons.
Navigation
There is an easy-to-use 4-directional navigation key. Using finger or thumb, you can easily navigate the menu system. When you arrive at th e r equired function in a menu, instead of pressi ng Yes, just gen tly press the small butt on i n t h e c ent er of t he navigation key and the feature is activated.
GPRS
GPRS uses Internet-style packet based technology. It allows users to be perm anently conne cted to the mobile Internet, but onl y use s t he radio link for the duration of time that it transfers d ata. GPRS offers the user the speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usability. Support is provided for GPRS 3+1.
Localization/Customization
Different markets will be served with appropriate pre­stored content. In addition, individual operators can be provided with uniquely customized phones. A complete list of customization options is available in the customization specification.
More in-phone functions
Email
The T226 is another Sony Ericsson mobile phone with a built-in fully functional email client. With inbox, outbox, save draft and reply options, you have all the functions you need for effective email communication in a small and powerful mobile phone. Constantly connected to a POP3, SMTP or IMAP4 email server anywhere on the Internet, your T226 stores messages (without attachments) dynamically, depending on available memory, and updates your inbox automatically and over the air. Check your email anywhere. Reply to email on the move. Fri ends, fam ily and business contacts know that when they send you email, you receive it and can read it and act on it immediately. You can include pictures in outgoing emails, but cannot receive attachments. Hyperlinks in emails are supporte d.
EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service)
You can send text, pictures and sounds in easy-to­create and fun messages. EMS has been adopted by several l ea di ng mo b il e p hone manufacturers, maki ng it
5
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
possible for users to send enhanced text messages to users of other makes of mobile phones. EMS makes it possible for the user to use text formatting (style, size, alignment and paragraphs) in a text message. At purchase, t he phone is loaded with several pre-define d images and animations.
Predictive Text Input Software
Text messaging with your T226 is made easier than ever with the introduction of predictive text input software. Inst ea d of having to press ke ys several times for a letter, software in your T226 chooses from a dictionary of words and phrases and anticipates what word or phrase you are writing, giving your mobile phone keyboard ease of use comparable to that of a full-size keyboard.
Sleep Mode
After a short period of inactivity, the display changes to sleep mode to save power.
Memory management
All applications in the phone share the same memory, allowing for efficient memory usage. When the memory runs low, the user gets information about the current memory situation, where each application’s usage is displayed. In the memory manager menu, the user can delete items from any application, in order to set memory free. At purchase, there is approximately 400 KB of memory space available to the user in the file system f or objects such as pict ures, games, soun ds, and themes. In addition to the user space, the file system contains preloaded pictures, games, sounds, MMS messages, message templates, themes, and WAP security information. Details depend on market and customer requirements.
Mobile chat
Mobile chat makes text messaging easier, since a chat­session opens up immediately when a text message is received from a phone. Because the user stays connected during the session, the messages open up automatically. Previous messages from both persons are visible on screen, each writer being distinguished by a nickname.
Picture phonebook
The phonebook lets the user assign a picture and/or a personal ring signal to a certain phone number. When the user gets a call from this person, the picture (instead of the number) is shown in the display.
be saved. You can also choose t o add, resc hedule , edit, send or delete events.
iMelody and Melody Composer
The audio iMelody format enhances the sound quality in the T226. With this format, the user can play, compose, edit and send melodies within the improved Melody Composer. The composer has an improved graphical user interface to simplify melody handling. All new and edit ed melodies are stored in t he i Me lo dy format.
Explanatory Help
The T226 can be pre-loaded with an MMS message that contains a demonstration of some of the phone’s features. In addition, an icon glossary is included.
Sound browser
From the Sound browser fun ct ion , the user can handl e all sounds (for example MIDI, eMelodies, iMelodies and sound recordings) stored in the phone. The user can play, send and view information on the sounds. Ring signals (MIDI, eMelody, iMelody, vMel) can be downloaded via WAP or exchanged via SMS (iMelodies) and MMS (MIDI, iMelodies). Sound recordings c an be exchang ed via MMS. The m aximum number of sou nds is l imite d only by the amoun t of free memory.
Pleas e also see information about the MIDI fo rmat under “Polyphonic ring signals” on page 4.
Camera application
The camera application supports a number of Sony Ericsson cameras . The user can browse, view, send and store pict ures in the ph one. It is a lso po ssibl e to s et different picture sizes.
Themes
With themes, the user can change the appearance of the display, for example, the text, the background colors and the background picture. The phone comes with a number of pre-defined themes. It is possible to download and exchange additional themes. The maximum number of themes is limited only by the amount of free memory.
Events
The Events feature keeps track of important meetings that you need to attend, phone calls that you need to make or tasks that you need to do. Twenty items can

Multimedia in the T226
The T226 is a multimedia phone. The color display together with the audio functionality gives the user several multimedia possibilities. For example, sounds can be recorded and stored. By using themes, it is easy to change the appearance of the display. Pictures, audio, animations and themes can be transmitted via MMS.
Graphics
Graphics (tables, charts, diagrams and layouts) have a major impact on the way we work. The T226 supports JPG (max 640x480), GIF (max 160x120), WBMP (max 320x320) and animate d GIFs.
You can set a pictur e to app ear as the back gro und when you are in standby mode.
Themes
With theme s, the us er can ch ange the appe arance of the display, for example the text, the background colors and the background picture. The phone comes with a number of pre-defined themes, and it is possible to download add it ion al t hem es . The maxi m um number of themes is limited only by the amount of memory.
Image formats
For informati on on Im ag e for mats and do wnl oadi ng of images, see “Image format technical data” on page 54 and “Images – downloading to phone” on page 54.
Audio
The user of the T226 can use the mobile phone as a sound recorder. With the sound recorder function, it is easy to make a voice recording, for example a personal rendition of “Happy Birthday”. The audio function in the T226 also allows downloading of sounds and melodies.
Pictures
With a digital camera attached to your T226, you can take, view and store pictures. It is also possible to download color pictures to your T226. The pictu res are stored in the picture browser in the phone. From here, the user can sel ect vie w, thumbnail or full vie w, as well as keep track of the number and size of the pictures stored in the phone.
The pictures stored in your T226 can be used for creating you r own digita l postc ards. This is easil y done by adding text to the pictures and sending them via MMS.

MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service)
One of the key features in the T226 is the Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS). MMS is expected to become the preferred messaging method of mobile terminal us er s, since there are vi rtually no limits t o the content of an MMS t ransmission . An MMS message from the T226 can contain text, graphics, animations, images, audio clips and ring melodies. For more detailed information, see “Multimedia Messaging Service” on page45. For third-party developers’ information, please visit www.Ericsson.com/ mobilityworld/ and look for the MMS Developers’ guidelines.
Defined and specified by 3GPP as a standard for third gener ation implementation, MMS completes the potential of messaging. Sending digital postcards and PowerP oint-style pr esentations is expected to be among the most popular user applications of MMS. Eagerly awaited by young users in particular, MMS is projected to fuel the growth of related market segments by as much as forty percent.
Using the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) as bearer technology and powered by the high-speed transmission technologies such as GPRS, Multimedia Messaging allows users to send and receive messages that look like PowerPoint-style presentations. The messages may include any combination of text, graphics, photographic images, speech and music clips. MMS eventually will serve as the default mode of messaging on all terminals, making total content exchange second nature. From utility to sheer fun, it offers benefits at every level and to every kind of user.
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
Figure 1. An MMS message can contain images, music, audio and graphics.
MMS objects
Although MMS is a direct descendant of SMS, the difference in content is dramatic. The size of an average SMS message is about 140 bytes, while the maximum size of an MMS message is limited only by the memory. That is why the key word to describe MMS content is rich. Complete with words, sounds and images, MMS content is endowed with the user’s ideas, feelings and personality. And whether the messages are full or only notifications is insignificant. An MMS message can contain one or more of the following:
Text
As with SMS and EMS, an MMS message can cons is t of normal text. Th e length of the text is unlimit ed , and it is possible to format the text. The main difference between an EMS and MMS message is that in an MMS message, text can be accompanied not only by simple pixel images or melodies but by photographic images, graphics, audio clips and in the future, video sequences.
Templates
The T226 comes with a number of MMS pre-defined templates, for example templates for birthday cards, meeting requests, etc.

T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Audio
MMS provides the ability to send and receive full sound (iMelody, MIDI and AMR) messages. Not only can users share a favorite song or ring signal with a friend, they can also use the mobile phone to record sound and s end it alon g with a messa ge. Bec ause s ound includes speech as well as music, this extra dimension of an MMS message makes fo r enhanc ed immediac y of expression and communication. Rather than sending a downloaded birthday jingle in EMS, for example, a user can send a clip of his or her own personal rendition of “Happy Birthday”.
The T226 will contain several polyphonic ring signals. Users can share ring signals, and download them from the Web.
Pictures and themes
By using a snap-on camera accessory, users can take a snapshot and immediately send it to a recipient. The ability to send pictures is one of the most exciting attribu tes of MMS, as it allows users to share meaningful moments with friends, family and colleagues.
Mobile picture transmission also offers inestimable utility in busine ss applications, from sending on-si te pictures of a construction project to capturing and storing an interesting design concept for later review. Editing a picture by adding text allows users to create their own electronic postcards, an application that is expected to substantially cut into the traditional postcard-sending market. Themes (downloaded or pre­defined) can be exchanged via MMS.
SMIL presentations
SMIL stands for Sync hronized Multimedia Integ ration Language and is pronounced “smile”. SMIL in the T226 allows the user to create and transmit PowerPoint-style presentations on the mobile device. SMIL is an advanced XML-based protocol, and Sony Ericsson MMS supports a subset of this protocol. Using a simple media editor, users ca n incorporate audio and animated GIFs along with still images, animations and text to assemble full multimedia presentations.
Business card (vCard)
With MMS in the T226, the user can send his/her busine ss card.

Benefits
Essentially enablin g the mobile terminal to serve as image processor and conveyor, Multimedia Messaging accommodates the exchange of important visual informati on as r eadil y as it faci lit ates f un. Busi ness an d leisure usage of MMS will be dynamically merged, resulting in enhanced personal efficiency for users and increased network activity for operators. In short, MMS affords total usage for total communication
Because MMS uses WAP as its bearer technology and is being standardized by 3GPP, it has wide industry support and offers full in teroperability, which is a major benefit to service providers and end users. Ease­of-use resulting from both the gradual steps of the messaging evolution and the continuity of user experience gained from interoperability is assured.
The idea of SMIL is to allow the user to customize the page timing in PowerPoint-style presentations. The user can decide in which order the image and text will be displayed, as well as for how long the images and text lines are to be shown in the display
PIM com munication with MMS
With MMS in the T226, it is easy to send and receive business cards and events.
9
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
The MMS server, through which MMS messages are sent, supports flexible addressing (to both normal phone numbers (MSISDN) and email accounts), which makes the user interface more friendly and allows greate r control for operators. The M MS se rve r, moreover, is responsible for the instant delivery of MMS.
MMS techn i cal featu res
The MMS standard, just like SMS, offers store-and­forward transmission (instant delivery) of messages, rather than a mailbox-type model. MMS is a person­to-person communications solution, meaning that the user gets the message directly into the mobile. Unlike SMS, the MMS standard uses WAP as its bearer protocol. MMS will take advantage of the high speed data transport te chnologies such as GPRS and support a variety of image, video and audio formats to
facilitate a complete communication experience.
Architecture
The MMS Center (MMS-C) is compri sed of the MMS Server, the MMS Proxy-Relay and the MMS Store. The MMS Center is the central element of the MMS network architecture, providing storage and operational support, enabling instant delivery of multimedia messages from terminal-to-terminal and terminal-to-email, and supporting flexible addressing. The center’s MMS Proxy-Relay interacts with the application being run on the MMS-enabled terminal to provide various messaging services. WAP is used as bearer of an MMS message between the MMS-C and the MMS client (application). The WAP Gateway is used for delivery and retrieval of messages.
Figure 3. The architecture of MMS
Message con version
The MMS-C is able to perform limited message conversion - for example, from MMS to SMS - s o that processing and air time is not wasted in sending messages to mobile terminals that do not have adequate capability to receive them. It also handles service aspects such as store and forward, guaranteed delivery, subscriber preferences, operator constraints, and billing information. The MMS-C als o vouc hes for high quality messaging, e.g. by format conversion. This means t hat t he MMS-C recogn izes whic h for mats are supported in the mobile phone, and adapts the
MMS messages to these formats.
OT A configuration
Users can easily get MMS into their phone. MMS supports OTA, meaning that the user does not have to configure the settings manually. The configuration is done by the operator.

EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service)
Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) adds new powerful functionality to the well-known SMS standard. With it, mobile phone users can add life to SMS text messaging in the form of pictures, animations, sound and formatted text. This gives the users new ways to express feelings, moods and personality in SMS messages. In addition to messaging, users will enjoy downloading, collecting, swapping, and editing pictures, ring signals, and other melodies.
EMS uses existing SMS infrastructure and industry standards, keeping investments to a minimum for operators. EMS provides a familiar user interface and compatibility with existing phones and other manufacturers.
EMS – more than just words
Sounds and melodies
EMS gives the user the ability to send and receive sounds. These can be pre-defined sounds or melodies (ring signals in the phone), downloaded from the Internet, received in SMS messages or composed by the user on the phone keypad or a PC. Note that MIDI ring signals cannot be exchanged via EMS.
Several sounds and melodies can be inserted in one message, and they can be combined with pictures.
Pictures, animations and formatted text
Phones supporting EMS include a set of pre-defined pictures for inserting in SMS messages. New pictures and animations are downloaded from the Internet or received in SMS messages. Several pictures can be inserted in one messa ge, and the y can be combine d with sounds and me lodies. The users can format text in messages with different styles and sizes.
Concatenated messages
A part of the EMS standard is the support for concatenated messages, which means that the phone is able to automatically combine seve ral messages both when creating and receiving EMS. This is useful to be able to build, and display, messages with rich content, since the amount of information in each SMS is limited by the SMS standards.
New possibilitie s with mes sag ing
The EMS standard is now a part of the SMS standard and supported by the major network operators and mobile phone manufacturers. This universal approach enables a fast penetration and development of new services and applications within messaging.
Creativity explosion
Users will be inspired to create and swap their own melodies and pictures. But more importantly, professional content creators and providers are already preparing to of fer i magin ative and c reati ve cont ents fo r use with EMS. Based on subscriptions, fees or ads, network operators will be able to provide wide ranges of ring signals, operator logos and corporate icons, as well as personal and mood-related pictures and melodies. Movie, music and game companies can promote new products and events with designer melodies, animations and pictures.
Huge business potential
Network operators can now enhance their services and attract more customers by offering pictures, animations, ring signals and melodies for download at their portals. Operators can charge more per EMS message since it contains more data. Thereby EMS adds more value to the operators and to the end users.
Increase SMS revenue
EMS uses the same basic network support as ordinary SMS, and with the same familiar user interface. From an operator's point of view, SMS is low tech because minimal investment is needed to provide an effective SMS serv ice to subscribers and little maintenance is required. EMS will create additional revenue for service providers and network operators by increasing SMS traffic.
11
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
Compatible with SMS standards
Users will find EMS as easy to use as SMS. Over 15 billion SMS messages, are sent every month worldwide. Roughly 80% of this traf fi c is user -to -user, i.e. mobile phone us ers send ing short mess ages to each other using the keypad of the phone to enter text. The remaining 20% is shared by downloads and notifications of different kinds.
The Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) was first submitted to the standards committees by Ericsson. Ericsson present ed the outline structure of EMS to the relevant ETSI/ 3GPP committees. The major mobile phone manufacturers and most operators are actively contributing to the 3GPP standards. Hence the EMS standards have evolved and are now stable and complete as part of the 3rd Generation Partnership Projec t (3GPP) technical specification.
An EMS message can be sent to a mobile phone that does not support EMS, or only supports part of EMS. All the EMS elements i.e. text formatting, pictures, animations and sounds are located in the message header. The EMS contents will be ignored by a receiving phone that does not support the standard. Only the text message will be displayed to the receiver. This is true consumer-friendly standa rdization. EMS is compatible to SMS acr oss most of the range of mobile phones from the oldest to the newest.
Notification
The user typically receives a short message notifying them that they hav e a new message in their messaging box, with icons or fo rmatte d text fu rther enhanc ing th e message.
Internet email aler ts
An Internet email alert is provided in the form of a short message that typically details the sender of the email, the subject field, and the first few words of the email messa ge. In this case, for m at te d t ext is excellent to identify message elements.
Ring signals
Downloading ring signals from the Internet.
News & commercials
Examples include: Illustrated world news, sports scores and news headlines, finance and stock market news with diagrams and tickers, commercial product promotions, weather reports with maps, tunes from TV commercials as ring signals.
Info & entertainment
Examples include: Ring signals, e-greetings, football team logo, joke-of-the-day illustrated by pictures or sound, horoscopes, movie related animation or theme song, TV show promotions, music artist promotions, lottery results, food and drink pictures and recipes, mood-related pictures.
Some companies in the mobile phone industry have developed their own messaging technologies, which only work with their own phone models. Network operators are i n favor of EMS because i t is universal – many of the major mobile phone manufacturers are constructively improving and developing the EMS standa rds even further for implementation in their products.
Examples of EMS contents and applications
A wide range of contents, applications and services may be developed. Below is a list of examples and areas where messaging can be enhanced with EMS.
User-to-user message
Messages usually originating from the keypad of a mobile phone can include pictures, melodies, and formatted text with EMS.
Voice and email notifications
Notifying mobile phone users that they have new voice or fax mail messages waiting - including icons or melodies with EMS.
Corporate
Examples include: Flight schedules, preinstalled corporate logos, map snippe ts and tr ave l inf o, company branded icons and ring signals, corporate email notifications, affinity programs where companies notify customers of product updates etc., banks notifying customers about new services and interest rates, call centers providing answers to questions about a product, vehicle positioning combining EMS with Global Positioning System (GPS) position i nform ation, job dispa tch wi th del ivery addresses for sales or courier package delivery, using EMS in a retail environment for credit card authorization, remote monitoring of machines for service and maintenance purposes.

Already today services exist on the Internet where users can create melodies, view icons, pictures, and subscribe to entertainment and informations services. These may develop further in the future to support
Internet access by a PC connected to a mobile phone using WAP, or even an SMS request interface.
The diagram shows the possibilities for using Enhanced Messaging Service:
- When the Operator/Service provider enables EMS in the network, users will enjoy adding life to messages with sounds, melodies, pictures and formatted text.
- New ranges of Content/Application aggregators on the operator network or the Internet can provide EMS contents and services to the users over SMS.
- Content Creators/providers can see a new demand for creative contents. Also, promotional activities from movie companies, record labels etc can provide ring signals, movie snapshots, etc.
The added value in SMS messaging will create new revenue which can be shared between the network operators, the application aggregators, and the content providers.

T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
WAP services
The T226 supports WAP 1.2.1 browser and protocol stack, as well as WAP 2.0 browser (WML 1.3). WAP
2.0 optimizes usage of higher bandwidths and packet­based connections of wireless networks.
The ty pical WAP client is a small, portable device connected to a wir el es s ne twork. This includes mobile phones, pagers, smart phones, PDAs and other small devices. Of cour se, compare d to desktop and laptop computers, these devices are limited by user interface, low memory and low computing power.
The WAP browser in t he T226 is compliant with W A P
2.0 and WAP 1.2.1. It includes WTLS class 3 as well as mechanisms for digital signatures. The T226 supports WML, XHTML, and iH TML. The WAP browser in the T226 is also designed to access information such as timetable s, share prices, e xcha nge rates, Internet banking and other interactive services. For more details, see “WAP browser technical data” on page 47.
Using WAP in the T226
Support for cookies
This version of WAP has support for cookies (client based), an application used by Web sites to store site­specif ic information in the browser between visits to the site. Cookies give the site owner a possibility to see when a perso n has vi site d thei r sit e. They al so sav e the user from having to enter the same information (e.g. the password or user ID) more than once. Cookies are often use d by e-c ommerce si tes ( sho pping carts a nd wish lists) .
Sending bookmarks
WAP 2.0 enables the sending of bookmarks via SMS.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
WAP 2.0 enables CSS. CSS allows developers to specify the style of WAP page content such as font, spacing, etc. The T226 supports CSS, and with its color display, user presentation is further enhanced.
Provide settings
Using SMS messages, configuration settings can be sent over the air, OTA, so that the user does not need to configure the WAP access settings manually. WAP settings may also be customized by the operator. For more information, see “WAP operator technical data” on page 48.
The built-in WAP browser in the T226 gives the user portable, fast and secure access to a wide variety of services, including personalized services, with new opportunities for business, individuals and service providers:
Push services
Businesses and service providers can “push” content or service indications to work groups and/or customers. Exampl es of pus hed cont ent woul d be mail alerts, messaging, news, stock quotes, contacts, meeting requests, etc.
Support of XHTML
The WAP browser supports the markup languages of WAP 2.0 – XHTML Mobile Profile and XHTML Basic. These two subsets of the Web standard XHTML are support ed by a ll maj or Web browsers. An XHTML page can be viewe d in both t he WAP brows er and in any standard Web browser. All of the basic XHTML features are supported, including text, images, links, checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings, horizontal rules and lists.
Adapt to phone type
The User Agent Profile function allows WAP content to be automatically optimized for the T226 capabilities, ensuring the intended user experience.
Several bearer types
The T226 accesses WAP over a standard GSM Data connection as well as over a GPRS connection (network-dependent services.)
Bandw idth efficien cy
Unlike traditional Internet services, WAP services are relayed to wireless devices as binary encoded data, maximizing bandwidth efficiency. A GPRS connection further increases efficiency.
Easy to create WAP pages
Creating a WAP service is no harder than creating an Internet/intranet service, since the markup languages (WML, WMLScript, X HTML Mobile Profile, and XHTML Basic) are based on well-known Internet languages such as HTML, XHTML, and JavaScript.
Using standard tools
Service creators can use standard tools such as ASP (Active Server Page) or CGI (Common Gateway Interface) to generate content dynamically. Services can be created once and then made accessible on a
14
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
broad range of wireless networks.
Existing services can be adapted to WAP. The necessary binary encoding is handled by a WAP Gateway, allowing HTML-based services to be vi ewed on the WAP browser of the T226. An XHTML page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in any standard Web browser.
Improve productivity
A business can use a W AP gateway to provide a secur e connection to it s cor porat e networ k, impr oving i nter nal communication flow by making information available to mobile as well as offic e users.
The WAP profiles
A WAP profile holds network settings and user identif ication, allowing the user to switch easily betwee n corporate services and WAP services on the Internet, simply by switching WAP profile.
The T226 has dynamic WAP profile handling, which means that the user can add, edit and delete WAP profiles. The T226 has a maximum of 5 WAP profiles.
During WAP browsing, the options button on the T226 gives the user immediate access to a dynamic option menu for WAP services, similar to a right mouse click in PC programs.
Bearer type characteristics
The T226 accesses WAP services over IP. IP can be provided either over GSM Data or GPRS, depending on network services.
Typical differences which distinguish the bearer types are listed bel ow.
GPRS access
The connection is maintained “constant ly”, with data tr ansmitted in packets, and tr ansmission capacity being used by the application in use on an as-needed basis.
Higher trans m is sion speed than with G SM Data or SMS access.
Pricing of GPRS can be depende nt on the ac tual use of bandwidth, which means the user is charged for the volume of data transmitted, rather than the duration of the connection.
When transmitting large amounts of data, band­width can be increased automatically to allow faster trans mission speed.
Ideal for complex pull services, browsing, data transfer, provisioning, pager services, messag-
ing services, info services, push initiations.
GSM data access
Circuit connection of data calls, which means that the phone is connected during the entire WAP session.
Pricing is comparable to that of data calls in the network.
Gateway characteristics
A WAP Gateway provides Internet/intranet as well as WAP services to the mobile browser. A Gateway is identified by an IP number, depending on access type.
End-to-end gateway navigation
The WAP 2.0 supports E2E (End-to-End) Gateway navigation, making it possible for example for a bank to redirect its clients from the Internet gateway to its own gateway.
Security using WAP
For certain WAP services, such as banking se rvices, a secure connection between the phone and WAP gateway is necessary. An icon in the display of the T226 indicates when a secure connection is in use.
The T226 is based on the WAP 1.2.1 specification suite, in which security functionality is specified by a technology called Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS). The WAP protocols for handling connection, transport and securi ty are structured in layers, with security handled by the WTLS layer, operating above the transport protocol layer. WTLS classes define the levels of security for a WTLS connection:
WTLS class 1 – encryption with no authentica­tion.
WTLS class 2 – encryption with server authen­tication.
WTLS class 3 – e ncrypt ion wi th both s erver and client authentication.
15
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
Server authentication requires a server certificate stored at t he se rver side and a truste d ce rt if icate stored at the client side.
Client authe nticati on requir es a clien t certif icate st ored at the client side and a trusted certificate stored at the server side.
A Wireless Identity Module (WIM) can contain both trusted and client certificates, private keys and algorithms needed for WTLS handshaking, encryption/decryption and signature generation. The WIM module can be placed on a SIM card which is then referred to as a SWIM card.
Certificates
To use secure connections, the user needs to have certificate s s tored in the phone. There are two types of certificates:
Trusted certificate A certificate that guarantees that a WAP site is genuine. If the phone has a stored certificate of a certain type, it means that the user can trust all WAP gateways tha t use the certificate. Trusted certificates can be pre-installed in the phone, in the SWIM or they can be downl oaded from the trusted supplier’s WAP page.
Client certificate A personal certificate that verifies the user’s identity. A bank that the us er has a contract with may issue this kind of certificate. C lient certificates can be pre-installed in the SWIM card.
WIM locks (PIN cod es)
There are two types of WAP security locks (PIN codes) for a SWIM, which protect the subscription from unauthorized use. The PIN codes should typically be provided by the supplier of the SWIM.
Access lock An access lock protects the data in the WIM. The user i s a ske d t o enter the PIN code the first time the SWIM card is accessed when estab­lishing a connection.
Signatu re lock A signature l ock is used for confirming tr an sac­tions, much like a digital signature.
Configuration of WAP settings
An easy way to perform WAP configuration in the T226 is to use the step-by-st ep WAP configurator available on http://www.SonyEricsson.com. The configurator utilizes OTA provisioning.
Manual configuration is done using the menu system in the phone. This is described in the User’s Guide.
WAP settings can also be customized in the mobile phone based on the operator’s preferences.
Over-the-air provisioning of WAP settings
To simplify the configuration of WAP settings in the T226, all settings can be sent to the phone as an SMS message. This make s it easy for an operator, a servi ce provider or a company to distribute settings for Internet/intranet, and WAP, without the user having to configure the phone ma nual ly. This also makes i t ea sy to upgrade services, as no manual configuration is required.
The OTA configuration message is distributed via SMS point-to-point.
The setup information is a binary encoded XML message (WBXML). To receive informa­tion about OTA specifications, please contact your local Sony Ericsson representative for consumer pro duct s. A configurator that ut il i zes OTA provisioning can be tested on www.SonyEricsson.com.
The user is al erted about new settings when the ongoing browsing session ends. Settings are not changed during an ongoing browsing ses­sion.
User interaction is limited to receiving and accepting/rejecting the configuration message, and selecti ng which WAP pr ofile to alloc ate t he settings to.
Security can be handled using a keyword iden­tifier displayed on the screen as a shared secret between the SMS sender and recipient. It is important that the user can verify that the con­figurat ion message is authentic.
Push services
Examples of WAP se rvi ce s t h at ca n be pus hed include:
In the T226, the user can check which transactions have been made with the phone when browsing. Each time the user confirms a transaction with a signature lock code, a contract is stored in the phone. The contract contains details about the transaction.
Notification of new email, voice mail, etc.
News, sports results, weather forecasts, finan­cial information (stock quotes etc.).
Personal Informat ion Mana ger (PIM ) - deli very
16
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
of contacts, meeting requests etc.
Smart card e-cash.
Interactive games.
In the T226, the user selects whether to allow push messages or not. Ther e ar e two different forms of Push services:
Service Indication (SI)
An SI service sends to t he br owser a text message with a URL of a WAP page. If the user decides to load the URL, normal WAP browsing commences. When an SI is recei ved by the T226, the user can load it immediately, postpone it or delete it. Received SIs are stored in the Pus h Inbo x and can be viewed and loaded at a later time. The Push Inbox displays a list containing the first part of each received message. The list is sorted by action attribute (high/medium/low) or reception time of the message.
Service Loading (SL)
An SL service sends and displays a WAP page if accepted by the user. If the SL is not accepted, it is loaded and stored in the cache for later use. The user can start the browser and load the page from the cache manually.
Mobile Internet
The mob ile Internet offe rs much more than mobile access to th e Intern et. It open s up a whol e new rang e of situation-based services that give the user access to personalized communications, information and entertainment, anytime, anywhere.
Data connections
In order to browse via WAP or use an Internet connection, the user must have a data communication connection configured in the phone. This connection contains specific settings and parameters to connect to an appropriate server. Several data connections can be saved in the T226. To make it easier for the user, data connections can be provided by the operator via customization or OTA provisioning.
Advantages of data connections include:
Once the data connections are defined and named, the user does not have to enter the set­tings for the connection again.
Data connections can be re-used at any time.
Indi vidual data settings for working with WAP, email or th e I nternet can be store d and activated as needed.
Data connections can be used for both GSM Data and GPRS connection settings.
Bearer type for WAP and corresponding bearer­specific parameters may be selected.
Data connections contain all the necessary set­tings for the Internet access point, including modem pool phone number or IP address, user ID and password.

General Packet Radio Services
The introduction of GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) is one of the key steps in the evolution of today’s GSM networks for enhancing the capabilities of data communication. Data traffic is increasing enormously (over both wired and wireless networks), with the growth in demand for Internet access and services paralleling that for mobile communications. Users want access to the Internet while they are away from their offices and homes, and surveys have found that the vast majority of business professionals want the ability to send and receive email, browse the Web and transmit text and graphics on a portable device. That is why the main applications driving Mobile Internet development are email clients and Web browsers.
T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
The demand for high-speed Internet access will be the key driver for coming gen erati ons o f wir eless s ervic es, and GPRS can deliver the necessary speed. GPRS allows innovative services to be created, enabling ne w and previously inaccessible market segments to be addressed and increasing customer loyalty.
GPRS applications can be developed as both horizontal and vertical applications. Vertical applic ations are sp ecific, including those for operations such as reaching police and emergency, taxi, delivery or automated services (vending machines, supervision, vehicle tracking). Horizontal applications are more generic and include those for Internet access, email, messaging, e-commerce and entertainment.
GPRS is able to take advantage of the global cove ra ge of existing GSM net works. Appli cations dev eloped for GPRS can be deployed on a large scale and can reap the associated benefits. GPRS al so provides a secure medium for connections to private networks, banking and financial services.
With GPRS, the T226 sends dat a in “packets ” at a very high speed. The T226 remains connected to the network at all times, using transmission capacity only when data a re sent or received. Fo r det ails, see “GPRS technical data” on page 52.

Figure 4 A comparison between GSM and GPRS
1. A normal GSM call uses only one of eight repeat-
ing time slots in the GSM ch anne l, giving a data speed of 9,600 bps. The T226 supports a more efficient cod­ing scheme, giving data speeds of up to 14,400 bps (with necessary network support). Furthermore, High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) adds the possi­bility of using two time slots for receiving data, increasing the data speed to as much as 28,800 bps (netw ork dependent).

2. In GPRS, data is sent in packets, with up to three
time slots being combined to provide the necessary bandwidth. The T226 is prepared to support 3+1 time slots (three slots for receiving data and one slot for transmitting data), giving speeds of up to 64,200 bps for receiving data, depending on coding scheme.
Using GPRS in th e T2 26
Instead of occupying an entire voice channel for the duration o f a dat a sess ion , the T22 6 sends /rece ive s data in small packets, as needed, much like IP on the Internet. Because of this, the T226 maintains a constant online connection. Its data transmission abilities are summoned by the application in use on an as-needed basis.
The GPRS specification includes four coding schemes – CS1, CS2, CS3 and CS4 – that allow data speeds of 9,050 bps, 13,400 bps, 15,600 bps and 21,400 bps respectively using one time slot. The T226 works with all four coding schemes, but data speed will naturally vary according to network configuration. At the moment, CS3 and CS4 are not supported in any live network, i.e., present speed is limited to 40,200 bps using three time slot s.
The GSM system limit s th e ab i li ty t o use al l ei ght time slots, so the T226 uses up to three time slots for
receivin g data , and on e s lot fo r tr ansmit ting (3 +1). Th is means that for CS4, the speed for receiving data is up to 64,200 bps and up to 21,400 bps for sending data.
Information about the identity of the phone and the characteristics of the connection are described in the PDP (Packet Data Protocol) context. This information is stored both in the phone and in the mobile network, so that each phone is identified and “visible” to the system.
Using GPRS with the T226 has several advantages, for example:
All connection settings can be managed by using the data connections feature.
High speed Gain access automatically to increased band­width when downloading im age s, etc.
Cost efficient Use transmission capacity only when needed,
19
thus reducing costs.
WAP over GPRS Access the Internet via WAP at high speed and with a constant connection.
Email over GPRS
Data and voice
Provide settings Receive GPRS configuration settings from the provider over the air, OTA, making manual configuration unnecessary.
User contro lled settings Take advantage of full user control in the data connections menu, establishing multiple descriptions and accessing advanced settings for GPRS.

T226 White Paper July 2003 (Rev C)
Network-dependent features
SMS and EMS messaging
The T226 is capable of sending and receiving SMS and EMS messages, and linked messages.
With the Short Messaging Service, a user can send text messages containing up to 160 char­acters to and from GSM mobile stations
Wi th the li nked SMS, the user ca n link up to 10 SMS messages together to create a longer mes­sage (network-dependent service)
A Service Center (SC) acts as a a storage and forwarding center. SMS consists of two basi c ser vices:
Mobile Originated SMS
Mobile Terminated SMS
For Mobile Originated SMS, an SMS message is sent from a Mobile Station to the SMS-C where it is forwarded to its destination. This can be another Mobile Station, or a terminal in the fixed network.
A Mobile Terminated SMS is delivered when an SMS message is forwarded from the SMS-C to a Mobile Station. When the Mobile Station receives the message, it retur ns a del iver y repo rt s aying the t ransf er was successful.
Fixed dialing and Restricted calls
For a company or an organization, it can be useful to restrict phone calls. Fixed dialing allows the user to preset a numbe r of digit s, for example area codes. This restricts the user to making calls only to numbers which use the preset digits as leading digits. Fixed dialing makes use of the PIN2, and requires fixed dial fields on the SIM card.
The Restrict calls service allows the user to block outgoing or incoming calls in certain situations, for example internatio nal calls.
TTY
TTY (Text Telephony) refers to the capability for hearing impaired people to trasmit and receive text messages usin g tel etype device s (TTY de vices ). Thes e devices are composed of a keyboard, display, and modem that transforms typed characters into TTY signals to be transferred over the phone network. The standard TTY signal in the U.S. is a 45.45 bit/s FSK signal called Baudot. Traditionally, TTY users have communicated over the analog PSTN network. In the U.S., however, the FCC mandated that as of June 30, 2002 digital mobile systems should also support TTY for emergency 911 calls. Unfortunately, the integrity of Baudot decreases in poor radio conditions, due to
signal compression. To get around this problem, the GSM standards body adopted a more robust modem signal calle d CTM ( cel lular text modem), a s described in 3 GPP TS 26.226 “Cellular Text Modem; General Description”. According to the standard, the Baudot signal gets conver ted to CTM, and it is the CTM signal that gets transmitted over the air. In the infrastructure side, a CTM node converts CTM back to Baudot (or vice versa).
CTM/Baudot conversion on the T226 side takes place in an access ory that interface s b etween the T226 (with TTY enabled) and the user’s TTY device.
EOTD
EOTD is part of the GSM R99 location services. The T226 supports EOTD to satisfy the FCC E911 positioning requirements. Although EOTD is supported, it may not be enabled.
EOTD determines position of the mobile phone by measuring the signal propagation delay between the phone and multiple base stations. The mobile phone knows which BTS’s to measure against based on assistance data contained in the Measure Position Request received from the network. Some BTS’s may even be below the reference sensitivity of the mobile phone (-110 dBm). Since neither the phone nor BTS has knowledge of absolute time, the mobile phone measures time delay by looking at the burst arrival time differences between each BTS and a reference BTS. This time difference is known as the observed time difference value (OTD). The BTS’s are not synchronized in a typical network, and suffer from clock drift. A special device in the network, known as an LMU, is used to measure the Real Time Difference (RTD) between each BTS and the reference BTS. The network take s t he OTD v al ues from the mobile ph one, interpolates the RTD from the LMU at the measurement time (the LMU typically only measures each BTS once per minute), and uses the known location and h eight of each BTS to calc ulate the pho ne position. Because the network calculates the position of the mobile phone, the term “MS-assisted” positioning is used.
The T226 supports Network Induced Location Request (NI-LR) which means that the T226 will calculate OTD values when it receives a Measure Position Request from the network during emergency calls.
AMR
The T226 supports the Adapative Multi-Rate (AMR) speech codec, which is a GSM speech service specified in Release 98/99. AMR is significantly different from the existing GSM speech codecs (FR,
26
HR, and EFR) in that it offers multiple speech and channel codec rates r ather than a fixed ratio. Bot h half and full rate channel types are defined for AMR. Eight codec rates are defined for the full rate channel and 6 for the half rate.
AMR offers capacity advantages over the standard GSM speech codecs in two ways. First, the half rate mode exhibits significantly improved quality as compared with the existing HR speech codec. Use of the AMR half rate mode would double the number of users that can use a given frequency and, correspond ingly, increase the ne twork c apac ity with out the need for added infrastructure or bandwidth. A secondary benefit of the half rate mode is that the talk time of the mobi le phon e would be i ncrea sed due t o th e reduced duty cycle of the transmissions.
Second, the rate adaptability indirectly offers a potential increased capacity with regards to the cell repeat patter n of the syst em. Poor channe l quality could be made acceptable by changing the AMR rate to have more channel coding. As a result, lower C/I ratios can be tolerated in the system.

SIM application toolkit
The SIM Application Toolkit (SIM AT) is a smart card-centric method of deploying programs that apply only to GSM and to SMS and USSD transports. Programs must be distributed on smart cards. WAP is an Internet-centric method of dep loy ing pr ograms that is independent of network technology. Programs and content are kept centrally on web servers and downloaded as required. While there is some overlap,
WAP is a particularly good choice when deploying programs that also have an HTML version for desktop use. Work is currently under way on building interfaces between the two technologies.
For an operator, a company or service provider, SIM AT offers a powerful way to deploy programs and services to users, without the need for new or upgraded equipment. All necessary setup and programming is distributed to users over the air, directly to their phones. In the T226, a separate menu is available for functions residing on the SIM card. These can include sub menus for contro llin g functi ons, and also functions which allow the phone to initiate calls, send data, and display information to the user.
