Figure 2 – Network-Related Elements for WAP Applications

Web Server

:

The Web Server stores the applications written in WML. Alternatively, existing HTML applications can
be used.

HTML Filter

:

Any applications written in HTML will have to be converted to WML before they are sent to the mobile
terminal. This HTML Filter may form part of the Web Server or the WAP Proxy.

WAP Proxy

:

The WAP Proxy acts as the gateway between the cellular network and the Inter/Intranet. It binary
encodes the information which is to be sent to the mobile terminal and decodes information sent from
the mobile terminal.

WTA Server

:

The WTA server handles network-specific applications. These applications are not discussed in this
document.
