Chipset for sending, receiving SMS only in GSM (no voice)

Jan 09, 2007 12 Replies

Hi, I am looking for some chipsets which will allow me to send receive SMS in GSM. My application is controlling / receiving status from a remote system/device using a GSM cell phone. I should be able to send SMS to the remote system using a cell phone and do desired control or obtain status through return SMS. No voice or any other features are required. If anyone knows about such chipsets, please let me know.

What country are you in ?

If its in the USA, you can't.

If its in the EU, google has lots of single chip computer projects that will do this.

The open ended question about using a GSM cell phone is the problem.

Special GSM modules is another matter.

A GSM module like this, fine:

But, as the question stands, No.

PS: If anyone know of an off the shelf cell phone (GSM or otherwise) please please please correct me.

How about using GSM data cards?

Siemens makes GSM modules, In the New England Area, even the european bands work with T-mobile.

Because europe uses different bands than the US, but in the northeast US, T-Mobile uses US and EU bands so your european cell-phone will work in Massachusetts. That way the left-wing weenies can chat. ; ^ D

You mean the GSM data cards you plug into a slot of a computer ???

Kinda misses the point, doesn't it.

That's me, but I don't get the context... I'm not a participant in this thread.

AFAIK as long as the phone had "data" capabilities i.e, can work as a modem you could use it's AT command set to send sms, things like the siemens s25 or c25 nokias 6100, etc, many many cell-phones, that's why i thought it was strange, well, i only have experience with gsm european phones.
