You need to use UCS2 (and you have to know that one SMS is
limited to 70 characters then). When using the send-sms interface
to send an MT, use coding=2 and put the message in the text=
field. The message needs to be expressed with the UTF16BE
charset. Check the kannel user-guide documentation if needed,
these settings are described.

Notice: how to convert your message to UTF16BE depends on your
software environment and I don't know windoze myself.
