A Short Message Service Center (SMSC) is a network element in the mobile telephone network which delivers SMS messages.
As SMSCs have been around about 10-15 years, many telcos want to integrate messaging infrastructures to IP networks that are designed to carry messaging traffic. [1] Also, mobile operators are looking to reduce costs and improve their networks' quality in order to maintain customer satisfaction and reduce churn. As a result, mobile messaging infrastructure companies including Airwide Solutions and Comverse Technology are providing platforms that will have more efficient messaging delivery and capacity services with SMS routers that some SMSCs were unsuitable to deliver including group distribution lists, copying, forwarding and archiving messages, and extras, such as antispam functionality.
