Abstract
The Phonectic SMS Reader is a speech technology test application that enables sending SMS messages and receiving them in voice format. The application can be viewed as a new value-added service for a mobile telephony operator.
The test system described includes two mobile telephones, one for intercepting SMS messages and another one for calling the message receivers. The text message is converted to speech by a text-to-speech system.
