-</fig> <p>The GSM 7-bit default alphabet consists of 128 characters. Each
-character is represented by 7 bits. 10 extra characters are defined in the
-GSM 7-bit default extension table. These characters are represented by an
-escape mechanism using the escape character (0x1B). For example, 0x1B65 maps
-to the Euro sign € (U+20AC). If an escape character byte is followed by a
-character that is not included in the 10 characters, the escape character
-is just ignored. This means 0x1B41 maps to Latin capital letter A (U+0041). </p> <p>For

-encoding</title> <p>According to 3GPP TS 23.038 V8.1.0, National Language
-Encoding supports additional characters for certain languages which cannot
-be represented in the GSM default 7-bit alphabet. It defines two mechanisms
-for doing this: </p> <ul>
-<li id="GUID-9ECCA8BD-0BA0-5AE2-B2D6-4677D2CD1BD7"><p>Locking shift mechanism–the
-default GSM table is replaced with a table containing the character set needed
-for a language. The table is referred to as locking shift table. </p> </li>
-<li id="GUID-3900D849-350A-5722-9759-D1D768FE6A84"><p>Single shift mechanism–the
-GSM extension table is replaced with a table containing the character set
-needed for a language. The table is referred to as single shift table. </p> </li>
-</ul> <p>When the locking shift mechanism is used, the escape table can be
-the existing GSM extension table or it can be the escape table used by the
-single shift mechanism. This supports three possible mappings as shown in
-Figure 3: </p> <ul>
-<li id="GUID-34ECF450-6265-58E2-9CB6-00E0C5DDA6F8"><p>The GSM 7-bit default
-escapes to language-specific escape table. It is referred to as GSM-single. </p> </li>
-<li id="GUID-6E8A53BF-0572-5DE2-8D41-FB588B6FB812"><p>The Language-specific
-basic table escapes to GSM 7-bit default extension table. It is referred to
-as locking-GSM ext. </p> </li>

-</fig><p>The single shift mechanism is useful when a message contains only
-a few characters outside the default GSM table. It is however inefficient
-when a message contains many unsupported characters, because each escaped
-character must occupy 2 bytes. GSM-single supports more characters than locking-GSM
-ext, but these characters are in the single table, which takes 2 bytes. Locking-single
-is used more for the decoding purpose in case the extra characters can come
-from the locking or single table. </p><p>The locking or single table is not
-a complete replacement. For example, the locking table for Turkish redefines
-only 8-character codes from the default GSM table, as shown in table 1. The
-escape table for Turkish adds 7 characters to the GSM extension, as shown
-in table 2. </p><table id="GUID-4AE6F58D-A5DA-4AD9-B39E-A61AA378F3F6"><title>Table 1</title>
