Abstract

The paper proposes a system that makes it possible to use voice as a medium for communication between a mobile device and the wireless network for information retrieval from the Internet. A proxy agent approach is followed for wireless Internet access. The user is able to make his request by speaking simple sentences through the mobile device´s microphone. The voice response, obtained from the proxy server, is played back using the existing device´s loudspeakers. The paper tries to cover all the important components of the network that are responsible for generation of this response.
