PREFACE Purpose Of This Document The Ericsson T39 White Paper is designed to give the reader a deeper technical understanding of how the T39 is designed, and of how it interacts with other media. This document will make it easier to integrate the T39 with the IT and communications solutions of a company or organization.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW The T39 is a Triple Band phone with built-in BluetoothTM wireless technology, high speed data, GPRS and Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) support. It integrates wirelessly with personal office tools and corporate calendars, phone books and services, to form a unique communications tool for the organization.
Functions And Features For Productivity Triple Band support Triple Band support means that you can use the phone on GSM 900/1800/1900 networks almost all over the world. Messaging E-mail client (POP3/SMTP) and support for linked SMS messages (long messages). Data connections feature makes it easy to manage all connection settings in one place, for internet etc.
BLUETOOTHTM WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY The T39 has built-in Bluetooth wireless technology. Short-range radio links operate in a globally available 2.4 GHz radio frequency band, and ensures fast and secure communications up to a range of 10 metres (typically) between devices. Please note that in countries where the use of Bluetooth wireless technology is not allowed, you must ensure that the Bluetooth function is set to off.
Using Bluetooth Wireless Technology In The T39 The built-in Bluetooth wireless technology allows a very fast data transfer speed, when one or more Bluetooth devices is within a range of 10 metres. For example, the services available via infrared communication are replaced by Bluetooth wireless technology communication, and with a better performance.
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 to enhance the capabilities for data communication. Data traffic is increasing enormously over both wired and wireless networks. This growth in demand for internet access and services has paralleled the explosion in demand for mobile communications. Users want access to the internet while they are away from their offices and homes.
Using GPRS In The T39 Instead of occupying a whole voice channel for the duration of the call, data is sent in small packets as needed, just like IP on the internet. Capacity is used only when data is being sent or received, which means that it is possible to be “constantly” connected, as required by the application in use. If the user wants to send e-mail, it may be sufficient to share a channel with several other users.
WAP SERVICES The typical WAP client is a small, portable device which is connected to a wireless network. This includes mobile phones, pagers, smart phones, PDAs and other small devices. In these devices, you have a limited user interface, low memory and computing power compared to desktop and laptop computers. The WAP browser in the T39 is compliant with WAP June2000 (WAP 1.2.1) includes WTLS class 3 and mechanisms for digital signatures.
Easy create for WAP Creating a WAP service is no harder than creating an Intranet/internet service today since WML and WMLScript are based on well-known internet technology. New market segments can be addressed by launching innovative mobile Value Added Services. Using standard tools It is possible for the service creator to use standard tools like ASP or CGI to generate content dynamically. You can utilize existing investments in databases etc. that are the basis of existing internet services.
Bearer Type Characteristics The phone accesses WAP services over SMS or IP, where IP can be provided either over GSM Data or GPRS depending on network services. Typical differences which distinguish the bearer types are listed below. GPRS Access • The connection is maintained “constantly”, as required by the application, and data is transmitted in packets. This means that the phone is connected almost all the time without using network capacity.
Security Using WAP When using certain WAP services the user may want a secure connection between the phone and the WAP gateway, for example when using banking services. An icon in the display indicates when a secure connection is used. The T39 is based on the WAP June2000 (WAP 1.2.1) specifications where security functionality is specified with a technology called Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS).
Over-The-Air Provisioning Of WAP Settings To simplify configuring WAP settings in a number of phones, all settings can be sent as an SMS message to each phone. This makes it easy for an operator, a service provider or a company to distribute settings for internet/Intranet, and WAP, without having to configure each phone manually. This also makes it easy to upgrade the services provided to the users, without the need for users to perform any manual configuration.
to delete it. Service indications that are received are stored in the Push Inbox, and can be viewed and loaded at a later time. The push inbox has a list that shows the first part of each received message, which is sorted by: 1) Action attribute, high/medium/low (highest first), and 2) Reception time for messages of each attribute level Service Loading (SL) This is a WAP page with the updated information, that is displayed if the user accepts it.
POWERFUL MESSAGING The T39 is capable of sending and receiving SMS messages, linked messages and it supports Enhanced Messaging Services (EMS). Please note that EMS is only valid for T39m versions. • With the Short Message Service, a user can send text messages containing up to 160 characters to and from GSM mobile stations (up to 70 characters using Chinese text) • Status report is supported, which means that the user can see if a sent message has been delivered or not (network-dependent service).
Pictures And Animations In the T39, there are 76 permanently stored pictures that express different moods and situations. The pictures are grouped by eight different themes to make them easy to find. In addition, the T39 has another 30 empty positions where the user can save pictures that have been received in incoming messages, or have been created by the user on the phone, see “Picture Editor” on page 19.
MOBILE INTERNET AND E-MAIL The Mobile Internet offers much more than mobile access to the internet - it opens up a whole new range of situation-based services. Services that give us anytime, anywhere access to personalized communications, information and entertainment. The T39 is built to facilitate the use of and access to services on the internet. The T39 also enables new technologies such as mobile positioning to create new commercial and productivity solutions.
Mobile Positioning The geographic location of mobile subscribers can be used to provide them with related information and a variety of services. Ericsson’s Mobile Positioning System (MPS) gives operators a fast and cost-effective way to establish and roll out location-based services. For users of the T39, the integration of mobile positioning with WAP services means that a complete range of service and information tools are available.
MODEM AND AT COMMANDS The T39 contains a complete GSM modem. This provides data and e-mail communication, as well as internet/Intranet access, for a connected PC, PDA or handheld device. Once the PC/ PDA is connected to the phone using Bluetooth wireless technology, infrared or a cable, and the appropriate software is installed, the modem in the phone works in a similar way to a PC Card modem, or an external modem.
AT Commands Support This section outlines the AT commands supported by the T39. The information here can be of use for advanced users, to indicate the possibilities they have to: • develop new communications software • add the T39 to an application’s list of compatible modems • adjust the settings of their mobile telephone and modem The modem in the T39 supports the V.25ter command set, which is the standard communication set used by modems.

SYNCHRONIZE CALENDAR AND PHONE BOOK In everyday life, access to an updated calendar and details of friends and business colleagues is greatly appreciated. To be truly mobile, users must be able to carry their important information with them. Equipping mobile phones with Personal Information Manager (PIM) programs like calendars, to-do lists and address books gives users access to their most important data anywhere and anytime.
Synchronize Over WAP Using SyncML The synchronization in the T39 with a remote internet calendar takes place over WAP according to SyncML. The SyncML initiative is an open industry initiative, that has been formed to develop and promote a common protocol for synchronizing data among workstations, network application servers, and mobile information appliances, such as mobile phones, handheld computers, PDAs and other mobile devices. Ericsson is an sponsoring member to the SyncML initiative.
If the synchronization software is upgraded to XTNDConnect PC, one PC can be partnered with several different phones. This is vital if, for example, each member in a work group has his/her own the T39, and needs to synchronize with one PC. It makes it easy, for example, to download a common company phone directory to the phone book in each company mobile phone.
32 MB RAM recommended (minimum 16 MB) 10 MB free hard disk space Bluetooth wireless technology Infrared or cable connection • A synchronization menu is embedded inside Microsoft Outlook. It provides one key synchronization and allows the user to control the synch process by easy to use settings • Handheld devices supported include the T39, palm-sized and handheld devices using Windows CE and PalmOS. Casio Personal Organizers • All support for the full version is handled by Extended Systems Inc.
INFRARED TRANSCEIVER Infrared communication creates a data link between two communications devices through an infrared beam of light. On the T39, this link is used as a wireless connection with desktop computers, PDAs, Ericsson handheld computers, laptop PCs, digital cameras, other phones (for example, the T39), and other hardware supporting the standard. The Infrared Data Association (IrDA) has set the hardware and software standards that form the infrared communication links.
FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES In-phone Functions And Features Downloadable Background Pictures The T39 makes it possible to use a favourite picture as a background in the display. The phone has a list of five pre-installed pictures, and one position for a custom picture that the user can download from another phone or from a PC or using WAP. In addition, one picture can be preinstalled by the operator, such as an operator logo.
Voice Control The T39 supports enhanced voice control, which makes it possible to interact with the phone using spoken commands. This is useful for handsfree use of the telephone. The functions include: • Voice dial - call someone by saying the name and number type, e.
Ring Signal Exchange The T39 supports exchange of ring signals to and from other compatible phones.
Network-Dependent Features Business Card Exchange Business cards can be exchanged with other devices, according to the vCard specification. vCard information can include name, phone number, e-mail address, and so on. Laptops, PDAs, phones or other devices equipped with IrDA or Bluetooth wireless technology, and that supports vCard, can “beam” business cards. Fixed Dialling And Restricted Calls For a company or an organization, it can be useful to restrict phone calls.
• Voice mail • WAP 1.2.
SIM APPLICATION TOOLKIT The SIM Application Toolkit (SIM AT) is a smartcard-centric method of deploying programs that apply only to GSM and to SMS and USSD transports. Programs must be distributed on smartcards. WAP is an internet-centric method of deploying programs that is independent of network technology. Programs and content are kept centrally on web servers and downloaded as required.
