the same as a regular phone in some ways. For instance your phone places a call from your number. The call is routed through the cell towers and your call is received by the owner of the phone on the other end.

They're essentially two walkie-talkies in the same case ! The signal is digitally encoded (and encrypted), then the signal is transmitted to the nearest phone mast. The mast relays the signal across a number of cells until it is received by the other phone.

I'm not sure but, it has something to do with the connection of cell phone itself and its network. The signal strength vary by the place you are at, for example, if you are in an elevator, you signal is either low or none. That is because obstacles are avoiding the signal from your phone to the network.
