Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)

Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is a standard for application layer network communications in a
wireless communication environment such as TETRA network. The protocol is used to access the
mobile web from a radio through a WAP browser.

WAP Browser
The Openwave Mobile Browser is a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)-compliant user agent. The
WAP browser, available only in TMO mode and on a network with Packet Data enabled, provides all
the basic services of a computer web browser. Depending on the CPS configuration, the display can
return to the browser session automatically after an interruption by the preemptive display. The WAP
browser does not support right-to-left languages (as Arabic and Hebrew); English is used instead. The
characters of right-to-left scripts are not displayed.
NOTE: Depending on the radio configuration and the network conditions, the WAP browser
may not display images properly (or may display them with a delay).
