Will a mobile phone work in the Arctic?
Some will - satellite phones notably do. For others, there are no base stations for them to connect with.
How many base stations are in the UK?
If you mean mobile phone base stations, it's difficult to know as the network operators believe that this is sensitive information which could be useful to their competitors. They therefore keep the details of their infrastructure to themselves.
Who innvented the mobile?
Cells for mobile phone base stations were invented in 1947 by Bell Labs engineers at AT&T and further developed by Bell Labs during the 1960s.
What is BSC in telecom?
The Base Station Controller (BSC) is in control of and supervises a number of Base Transceiver Stations (BTS). The BSC is responsible for the allocation of radio resources to a mobile call and for the handovers that are made between base stations under his control. Other handovers are under control of the MSC.
What is paging in msc?
Paging in a mobile switching center (MSC) involves the process of locating a mobile device within a cellular network. When a call or message is directed to a mobile subscriber, the MSC sends a paging request to the relevant base stations in the area where the device is believed to be located. The base stations then broadcast a paging signal to alert the mobile device, which responds if it is powered on and within range, allowing the MSC to establish a connection. This mechanism is crucial for efficient communication and resource management in mobile networks.
What is is mobile?
Mobile just means you can take something with you.A mobile phone or mobile is an electronic device used for telecommunications over a cellular network of specialized base stations known as cell sites. Mobile phones differ from cordless telephones, which only offer telephone service within limited range.

Why is cell phones called cell phones?
Mobile telephones use numerous low power base stations to communicate. As a phone moves, it can transfer its connection from one base station to another so that calls are not dropped while travelling. The base stations are called cells and together form a cellular network. It is the base station technology that lent its name to the portable telephone in North America. Many other English speaking countries have different names for them with the term "mobile" being used in the UK for example.
How does Mobile Network works?
Without base stations mobile phones will not work and we cannot connect our customers' calls. Base stations are often called masts or antennas, as these are the most visible parts.Mobile phones use radio frequency (RF) fields to send and receive calls, texts, emails, pictures, web, TV and downloads. An RF signal is sent to the nearest base station, which sends the signal to a digital telephone exchange and on to the main telephone network. This connects the signal to the receiving phone, again via a base station (if it is another mobile phone).Mobile phones connect to the base station providing the best signal - usually the nearest. As a person moves away from the base station the signal becomes weaker, so the mobile phone automatically adjusts its own RF field strength to maintain the minimum level needed to communicate with the base station.The area covered by a base station is known as a cell.Each cell is usually split into three sectors, which overlap with the sectors of neighbouring cells to create an uninterrupted network. When people travel, the signal is passed from one base station to the next, and typically never has to travel further than the nearest base station.The size and shape of each cell is determined by the features of the surrounding area, such as buildings, trees and hills, which can block signals. Cells are largest in flat open landscapes, where they can cover up to a five kilometre radius. Cells in urban areas cover up to a two kilometre radius. The smallest cells are in built up areas, where micro-cell base stations are used to provide extra coverage and capacity.Each base station can only handle a limited number of calls at a time. In areas of high demand, additional antennas are sometimes added to a base station to send and receive more calls and other mobile services, or an extra base station is installed.All this means that a large number of base stations are needed to allow more people to use mobile phones, from more locations, and for coverage to be continuous when moving around.
