This PowerPoint Presentation describes about the concept of Wireless application Protocol. The Protocol is a set of Rules that must be followed in Computer Technology. In this PPT, We can clearly know about the Definition of WAP- Wireless Application Protocol and its purpose. We can easily learn about the need of WAP. It also defines some Wireless Networks works in WAP Architecture.

3. WIRELESS APPLICATION PROTOCOL
(WAP)
 Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is a technical
standard For Accessing Information Over a Mobile Wireless
Network.
 A WAP Browser is a Web Browser for Mobile
Devices Such as Mobile Phones that uses the Protocol

4.  It is introduced with much type in 1999, WAP achieved Some
Popularity in the Early 2000s, but by 2010s it had been
largely superseded by more modern standards.
 Most Modern Handset Internet Browsers Now Fully
Support Html, So They Do Not Need To Use Wap Markup
For Web Page Compatibility, And Therefore, Most Are No
Longer Able To Render And Display Pages Written In Wml,
WAP's Markup Language

5. WAP - DEFINITION
Wireless application protocol (WAP) is a
communications protocol that is used for wireless data access
through most mobile wireless networks
PURPOSE OF WAP
To enable easy, fast delivery of relevant information and
services to mobile users

6.  WAP functions in an open application environment and
may be created on any type of OS. Mobile users prefer
WAP because of its ability to efficiently deliver electronic
information.
 WAP enhances wireless specification interoperability and
facilitates instant connectivity between interactive wireless
devices (such as mobile phones) and the internet.

7. TYPES OF DEVICES THAT USE WAP
Handheld digital wireless devices such as mobile
phones, pagers, two-ray radios, smart phones and
communicators-form low-end to high-end.

8. WIRELESS NETWORKS WORKS IN WAP
CDPD
CDMA
GSM
 PDC
 PHS
TDMA
FLEX , ReFLEX
IDEN , TETRA
DECT , DataTAC
Mobitex.

9. Operating systems that are compatible with
WAP
 WAP is a communications protocol and an application
environment.
 WAP is independent of OS that means WAP can be
implemented on any OS.
 It can be build on any operating system including palm
os, epoc 32, windows OS, flexox, os /9,java OS, etc.
