Technically they would be called 'Nodes'
Paging is a mechanism used in cellular systems to locate and alert a specific mobile device within the network. When a call or message is incoming for a particular user, the network broadcasts a paging message to all cells or a specific group of cells to locate the user's device. Once the device responds, the call or message is then connected or delivered.
A mobile phone.
answer: node
Any device on a network is called a 'node'.
When you place a call from a cordless telephone, the device first converts your voice into an electrical signal. This signal is transmitted wirelessly to the base station connected to the telephone line. The base station then sends the call signal through the phone network to the recipient's phone. Once the call is connected, the audio signals are sent back and forth, allowing for a conversation.
It's call a NIC (Network Interface Card)
a drive
When you make a call, your device sends a signal to the nearest cell tower, which connects to the mobile network. The network then routes the call through various switches to reach the recipient's device, converting your voice into digital data. This data travels over the network and is converted back into sound on the recipient's end, allowing for real-time communication. The entire process typically happens in a matter of seconds.
If you have a computer which is not connected to Internet (or other networks, LAN, Wireless network...) you can call it a standalone computer.
A call barring network error typically occurs when a mobile network's settings prevent incoming or outgoing calls. This can be due to user settings, account restrictions, or network issues. To resolve it, check if call barring is enabled in your phone settings, ensure your account is in good standing, and contact your service provider for assistance. Restarting your device may also help in some cases.
They use a radio inside the device to communicate with a tower. That tower connects to the carrier's network, and from there is forwarded to another carrier's network. Basically the receiving end is the reverse of the sending.
This is known as Voice Over IP, or VoIP. With this, your phone is connected to your Internet-connected computer. When you make a call, your computer translates it to IP(Internet Protocol). It then sends that call out via the Internet. If the recipient has VoIP as well, the process works in reverse for them to receive the call. If the recipient doesn't have VoIP, your call goes to a translation device near the recipient. The device then takes the data, translates it back to a normal voice call, and sends it to the recipient through standard phone lines.
