Doctor Martin Cooper invented the modern cell phone. He invented the technology responsible for the cell phone when he was the Director of Research and Development at Motorola. Dr. Martin Cooper is also known as the first person to make a call on a cell phone. His revolutionary call took place in April of 1973 in New York. He is currently the CEO of an antenna corporation.
Dr Martin Cooper, a former general manager at communications giant Motorola, is said to be the inventor of the first portable handset and the first person to make an analogue mobile phone call on a portable mobile phone in April 1973.
The first call he made was to his rival, Joel Engel, Bell Labs head of research. AT&T's research arm, Bell Laboratories, introduced the idea of cellular communications in 1947. But Motorola was the first off the block with a mobile phone
he created the phone called the dyna tac
As I understand it the guy who invented the first handheld cellular phone was Martin Cooper in 1973
Dr Martin Cooper, a former general manager for the systems division at Motorola, is considered the inventor of the first portable handset and the first person to make a call on a portable cell phone in April 1973. The first call he made was to his rival, Joel Engel, Bell Labs head of research.
The cell phone began as police radios in the 1920's and were further developed by Bell Labs in 1947. Martin Cooper made the first cell like the ones we know today in 1973, but they weren't sold to the public until 1983.

AT&T's research arm, Bell Laboratories, introduced the idea of cellular communications in 1947. But Motorola and Bell Labs in the sixties and early seventies were in a race to incorporate the technology into portable devices.
Cooper, now 70, wanted people to be able to carry their phones with them anywhere.
While he was a project manager at Motorola in 1973, Cooper set up a base station in New York with the first working prototype of a cellular telephone, the Motorola Dyna-Tac. After some initial testing in Washington for the F.C.C., Mr. Cooper and Motorola took the phone technology to New York to show the public.
In 1973, when the company installed the base station to handle the first public demonstration of a phone call over the cellular network, Motorola was trying to persuade the Federal Communications Commission to allocate frequency space to private companies for use in the emerging technology of cellular communications. After some initial testing in Washington for the F.C.C., Mr. Cooper and Motorola took the phone technology to New York to show the public.
On April 3, 1973, standing on a street near the Manhattan Hilton, Mr. Cooper decided to attempt a private call before going to a press conference upstairs in the hotel. He picked up the 2-pound Motorola handset called the Dyna-Tac and pushed the "off hook" button.
The phone came alive, connecting Mr. Cooper with the base station on the roof of the Burlington Consolidated Tower (now the Alliance Capital Building) and into the land-line system. To the bewilderment of some passers-by, he dialed the number and held the phone to his ear.
Who is he? Cooper grew up in Chicago and earned a degree in electrical engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology. After four years in the navy serving on destroyers and a submarine, he worked for a year at a telecommunications company.
Hired by Motorola in 1954, Mr. Cooper worked on developing portable products, including the first portable handheld police radios, made for the Chicago police department in 1967. He then led Motorola's cellular research.
The person who invented handphones was Martin Cooper. He made the first call on a handheld phone on the date of April 3rd, 1973.

Whirlpools are not inventions they are a natural occurence.
Mesopotamians invented the wheel chariot and mesopotamian women invented lipstick. The arch and the collumn were both developed in Mesopotamia, and are still used today in modern buildings and bridges.

As far as I know the concept of mobile phone was invented during the second world war by the American and it was gradually improved.
The first mobile phone call was called in 1973. and finally mobile phones were released in 1983.

I think the phone came out in 1970.
The first mobile service started in the late 1970's
AMPS Technology was used by Dr. Martin Cooper in the world's first mobile phone.
A ford auto mobile because the guy who invented the first car (auto mobile) his last name was ford
In 1947 Bell labs made the first cell phone, but the man most given the credit is Dr. Martin Cooper of Motorola when in 1973 he made a cell phone very much like the ones we have today. In 1983 the first cell phones were sold to the public.
She invented the world's first disposable cell phone!
A phone in America that was 6-8ft. It held the world record of being the Biggest Mobile Phone. It was rumored that it also had the world record of being the world's costliest phone.
Yes the 1 cell phone has been invented in Bell Labs
