WAP - Wireless Application Protocol

WAP is a technology designed to provide users of mobile terminals with rapid and efficient access to the Internet. WAP is a protocol optimized, not only for use on the narrow band radio channels used by second generation digital wireless systems, but also for the limited display capabilities and functionality of the display systems used by today's mobile terminals. WAP integrates telephony services with microbrowsing and enables easy-to-use interactive Internet access from the mobile handset. Typical WAP applications include over-the-air e-commerce transactions, on-line banking, information provisioning and messaging. WAP will enable operators to develop innovative services to provide differentiation in competitive market environments.
