SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ATTACHING AN ADVERTISEMENT TO AN SMS MESSAGE FOR WIRELESS TRANSMISSION

摘要

A monitoring and alert system includes a wireless device that sends a monitoring request to a remote server. When the conditions specified by the monitoring request are met, the server generates an SMS alert message. The server determines the maximum length in characters of the SMS message and whether there is sufficient space remaining for an advertisement. If sufficient space is available, the server generates an advertisement and appends it to the SMS alert message. The alert message with appended advertising is then sent to the wireless device.
