= SMS and calls theory = If the incoming SMS delivery calls have a caller ID in the [https://www.bt.com/content/dam/bt/help/legacy-ug/new-pdf/BT%20SMS%20Text%20service%20centre%20numbers.pdf BT Text], the chances are there that it understands [https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_es/201900_201999/201912/ ETSI ES 201 912], and for incoming SMS, refers to the caller as the SM-SC and recipient as SM-TE, or use the implementation [https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Application_SMS in Asterisk] == Incoming messages == # This mainly relies on voicemail being able to activate based on caller phone number, so if it is a SMS relay service such as BT Text or AQL calling, divert to voicemail: ~~# As per "annex A.2" When the call is not witheld and caller id = BT Text receive number, answer the call in the network, and perhaps, start recording as a fallback~~ # ~~Play~~Then optionally play the initial FSK communication of ETSI ES 201 912, in the SM-TE role, to have a chance to get the SMS digitally # If the caller (SM-SC) replies with FSK quickly in accordance with ETSI ES 201 912 then accept the SMS digitally and deliver as an [[SMS#Inbound_SMS\|Inbound SMS]], otherwise: # the SM-SC, hopefully, detects it is talking to an SM-TE rather than a person, and cancels any text-to-speech, once successful confirmation is obtained according to the protocol then call recording can stop and any recording discarded. # send dialpad digits to have SM-SC play SMS as text-to-speech # receive the SMS, it can then be logged digitally if the customer wants that, leaving the communication channel open for the next steps if required to deliver confirmation the message has reached its destination # then record it like voicemail, attempt send the recording [[VoIP_-_Voicemail\|via email]] and if successful, ask the SM-SC to delete the delivered SMS, then end the call. # if the real terminal equipment, with the internet suggesting that Gigaset devices sends SMS "over" RTP, understands the ETSI specification equally whether the analogue or IP based interface is used, then switch roles to SM-SC, setting the caller ID to a recognised BT Text number so the station knows to answer it automatically. ~~# The message can also be transferred via a variety of other methods, without analogue emulation, such as [https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5194 real-time text].~~ == End user equipment interaction == ~~== Outgoing messages ==~~ End user SIP equipment may support ETSI ES 201 912 over RTP, if so then: ~~If the station supports SMS on PSTN, it may support the same interface over IP codecs, then "calls" to BT Text outgoing shortcodes are very likely attempts to send an SMS this way.~~ * VoIP supplier could implement that by divert outgoing calls to well known SM-SC numbers to the provider SM-SC ~~# As with "annex A.1" If caller-id is not witheld, answer the call, in the SM-SC role~~ * Also have an option to rôle switch to SM-SC to deliver messages to it, after having [[SMS#Itemised_billing\|logged them]], if customer wanted that. ~~# Log the outgoing SMS if required and transmit onwards~~ = Experimenting = Trying to send SMS from Vodafone to a BT number ported to AAISP does result in text-to-speech calls that come from 08456021111, which is different from the numbers in gigaset [https://gse.gigaset.com/fileadmin/legacy-assets/CustomerCare/Manuals/SL4xx/SL450_GO/A31008-M2721-L101-1-7619_en_IE-UK.pdf sl450a-go] that is use to get calls, so there likely be no need to support both the text to speech and FSK based SMS delivery. The factory numbers are 1470P17094009* to send (as in active send=yes) and 0800587529* to receive (as in active send=no), it can be set to process these numbers on IP1 instead of "Fixed" The asterisk apparently means to accept any follow-on digits, although it could mean asterisk literally also. Therefore, the outstanding matters are to get BT to send AAISP SMS either via [https://www.bt.com/help/landline/set-up-and-use-bt-text SMS over PSTN], (by us [sending "register" to 00000 or BT delivering SMS over inter-operator transports such as text files over ftp over ipsec.
