Protocol
of the transport layer within the WAP architecture
|
|
|
|
– |
uses
directly transports mechanisms of different network technologies
|
|
|
|
– |
offers
a common interface for higher layer protocols
|
|
|
|
– |
allows
for transparent communication using different transport
|
|
|
technologies
(GSM [SMS, CSD, USSD, GPRS, ...], IS-136, TETRA,
|
|
|
DECT,
PHS, IS-95, ...)

Goals
of WDP
|
|
|
|
– |
create
a worldwide interoperable transport system with the help of WDP
|
|
|
adapted
to the different underlying technologies
|
|
|
|
– |
transmission
services such as SMS, GPRS in GSM might change, new
|
|
|
services
can replace the old ones

Additionally,
WCMP (wireless Control Message Protocol) is used for
|
|
control/error
report (similar to ICMP in the TCP/IP protocol suite)
