SMPP submit_sm
SMPP (Short Message Peer-to-Peer) is an open, industry standard protocol designed to provide a flexible data communications interface for the transfer of short message data between External Short Message Entities (ESME), Routing Entities (RE) and Message Centres (MC). The SMPP protocol is a means by which applications can send SMS messages to mobile devices and receive SMS from mobile devices.

and worldwide4.2.1 submit_sm Operation
This operation is used by an ESME to submit a short message to the MC for onward transmission to a specified short message entity (SME).
4.2.1.1 submit_sm Syntax
| Field Name | Size octets | Type | Description | Ref. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| command_length | 4 | Integer | Set to overall length of PDU. | 4.7.4 |
| command_id | 4 | Integer | 0x00000004 |
4.7.5 |
| command_status | 4 | Integer | 0x00000000 |
4.7.6 |
| sequence_number | 4 | Integer | Set to a Unique sequence number. The associated submit_sm_resp PDU will echo this sequence number. | 4.7.24 |
| service_type | Var. max 6 | C-Octet String | The service_type parameter can be used to indicate the SMS Application service associated with the message. Specifying the service_type allows the ESME to avail of enhanced messaging services such as “replace by service_type” or to control the teleservice used on the air interface.
