How to contact someone by text messaging (SMS) without using a mobile phone You can send a text message (SMS) to a cellular subscriber from your e-mail application (Outlook). Your e-mail will be converted into a text message, and your recipient will receive a text message instead of an e-mail. You simply need to send an e-mail to a special address (see table below). To send a text message to a cellular subscriber from your e-mail application, you need to know two components: • their cellular number; • the name of their cellular provider (Bell, Rogers, TELUS, etc.). The table below shows the e-mail address to use depending on the recipient’s cellular provider: Provider Recipient’s Extension to use number Bell and Solo Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @txt.bell.ca Chatr, Rogers and Tbaytel xxx-xxx-xxxx @pcs.rogers.com Eastlink xxx-xxx-xxxx @txt.eastlink.ca Fido xxx-xxx-xxxx @fido.ca Koodo Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @msg.koodomobile.com MTS xxx-xxx-xxxx @text.mtsmobility.com PC Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @mobiletxt.ca Public Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @msg.telus.com Sasktel xxx-xxx-xxxx @sms.sasktel.com TELUS xxx-xxx-xxxx @msg.telus.com Virgin Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @vmobile.ca WIND Mobile xxx-xxx-xxxx @txt.windmobile.ca For instance, in case of a Bell subscriber whose mobile number is 819-555-1212, you would send them a text message at [email protected] from your e-mail application. Also, if the subscriber replies to your text message and they have a data package or are connected to a wireless network, their reply will appear directly in your e-mail software! .

SOP 202 Iridium Satellite Phone Provisioning
Standard Operating Procedure Updated: Apr 27, 2017 DOCUMENT NUMBER: SOP202 TITLE: Iridium Satellite Phone Provisioning PURPOSE: This document describes the provisioning and testing of Iridium Satellite phones. It is intended for all Greenland and Alaska field site personnel. BACKGROUND: A satellite telephone, satellite phone, or satphone is a type of mobile phone that connects to orbiting satellites instead of terrestrial cell sites. They provide similar functionality to terrestrial mobile telephones; voice, short messaging service and low-bandwidth internet access are supported through most systems. Depending on the architecture of a particular system, coverage may include the entire Earth or only specific regions. DETAILS: Components Required for Testing • Activated sim chips with phone number labels from IT&C staff • Preconditioned and charged batteries • External iridium egg antenna deployed outside in order to receive satellite signal inside the building • Updated Iridium phone number cheat sheet and Quick use guide Iridium Satellite Phone Testing Procedures • Insert activated SIM chip into satphone • Insert a preconditioned and charged battery into the satphone.. • Place battery cover on the satphone • Connect the satphone being tested to the external iridium egg antenna using a stubby antenna connector • Turn on the satphone and allow the registration process to complete Page 1 of 3 Standard Operating Procedure Updated: Apr 27, 2017 • Make a phone call using the satphone to a known number (ie your cellphone number, land line or a known working Iridium phone) • Make a phone call using your cellphone number, land line or a known working Iridium phone to the satphone being tested. • Adjust the iridium phone audio speaker to highest volume • Set the iridium phone to Ringer only and adjust the ringer to the highest volume • Turn call Forwarding off • Per each phone, adhere the phone number label to the front of the Iridium phone • If above test passed, continue onto next section.

A tremendous increase in handover (HO) scenarios and HO rates will occur. Ensuring stable and reliable connection through the mobility of user equipment (UE) will become a major problem in future mobile networks. This problem will be magnified with the use of suboptimal handover control parameter (HCP) settings, which can be configured manually or automatically. Therefore, Citation: Saad, W.K.; Shayea, I.; the aim of this study is to investigate the impact of different HCP settings on the performance Hamza, B.J.; Mohamad, H.; of 5G network.

Wireless Competition in Canada: an Assessment
Volume 6•Issue 27•September 2013 WIRELESS COMPETITION IN CANADA: AN ASSESSMENT Jeffrey Church † Professor, Department of Economics and Director, Digital Economy Program, The School of Public Policy, University of Calgary Andrew Wilkins † Research Associate, Digital Economy Program, The School of Public Policy, University of Calgary SUMMARY If there’s one thing Canadians agree on, it’s that Canada’s wireless industry can and should be more competitive. The federal government is on side with the policy objective of having four carriers in every region and has responded with policies that provide commercial advantages to entrants. But, the rub is that there has not been a study that actually assesses the state of competition in wireless services in Canada, until now. Those in favour of policies that will promote and sustain entry point to Canada’s high average revenue per user and low wireless penetration rate (mobile connections per capita) as evidence that there is insufficient competition. The difficulty is that the facts are not consistent with this simplistic analysis. Measurements of wireless penetration are skewed toward countries that maintain the Calling Party Pays Protocol and favour pay-as-you-go plans, both of which encourage inflated user counts. Canada’s participation per capita on monthly plans and minutes of voice per capita are not outliers. Moreover, in terms of smartphone adoption and smartphone data usage, Canada is a global leader, contributing to high average revenue per user. Consistent with being world leaders in the rollout of high speed wireless networks, Canada lead its peer group in capital expenditures per subscriber in 2012: the competition of importance to Canadians is not just over price, but also over the quality of wireless networks.

ILX800-SMSG Datasheet
DATASHEET Micro800 SMS Plug-in Module for GSM Networks ILX800-SMSG The ProSoft Technology SMS Plug-in Module adds bi-directional SMS text messaging capability to the Allen-Bradley Micro820, Micro830, and Micro850 controllers. Operating over the GSM cellular network, the plug-in module provides a cost- effective and secure method for OEMs to add remote communication features using cellular phones as the user interface to their machines and systems. Applications include remote alarming, environmental/energy monitoring, data collection, machine condition, inventory status alerts and production counts. The SMS plug-in is activated by installing a standard GSM Voice/SMS SIM card (contact your local GSM cellular provider for plan options and costs). After activation it will associate to the local provider tower and enable bi- directional text messaging between the controller and remote cell phones. Because the module uses SMS, there is no need for costly cellular data plans. The SMS Plug-in snaps into an open slot in the front of the controller. The controller provides power and all communications are over the backplane. A sample CCW program is available at no additional cost with plug-in function block drivers and a sample program provided in Structured Text, Ladder and Function Block languages. Programmers may use these sample programs for creating their own projects for message sending, receiving, alarming and machine status. The front mounted coax connector allows for either a direct-mounted antenna or externally mounted antenna (installed
