Abstract

A receiver for text messages in a network includes a means to receive and demodulate a signal. A message type detector determines whether or not the message is a text message. If it is, a header decoder looks at the header of the text message for encoding information. An alphabet selector then selects an appropriate decoding alphabet from an alphabet memory to be used by a message decoder prior to display the text message on a display.
