July 24, 2013 A cell phone is a two-way radio that sends and receives radio signals to and from cell site base stations.

The base station sends the call across the communication network after which the call reaches the intended receive
Landline telephones use voice transmission where the transmitter and receiver are located in the handset. Powered by the line, the microphone produces an electrical current which varies its frequency and amplitude in response to the sound waves arriving at its diaphragm. The resulting current

    Cell phones use data networks to transmit information. Data networks transfer information using a series of packets. This allows for the “always on feature of today’s cell phones. Landline phones are an example of technology which still uses voice networks. These networks transfer data over a connected line running full duplex meaning data travels in one direction over one line and another direction over a separate line. SMS/Text messaging is another example of data transfer that cell phones use for communication these days. Fax machines are connected through landline connections which as mentioned before use voice connections.…

    Communication has evolved in several ways since the beginning of time. A telephone is a telecommunications device that permits two or more users to conduct a conversation when they are not in the same vicinity of each other to be heard directly. A telephone converts sound, typically and most efficiently the human voice, into electronic signals suitable for transmission via cables or other transmission media over long distances, and replays such signals simultaneously in audible form to its user. The telephone allows people to communicate with others that are not around them. In modern day society people use texting and calling several times a day to communicate with people in a convenient manner. The popularity of the cellphone has made it possible to make calls or texts to communicate with those that are not immediately around one. Texting and calling are both very easy means of being able to reach someone or to send a message. Calling and texting are both means of communication and have many similarities, however, are different in many aspects.…

A telephone has two main parts: the transmitter and the receiver. The Transmitter of a telephone…

    Remember a long time ago where a cell phone was a huge brick with an antenna and where you could only be in certain areas to get a signal? Ever since that phone was invented we have come up with ways to make it better, starting with the size. Now it is much smaller and can fit in your pocket. You don’t have to worry about reaching a signal anymore because now we invented things like Wi-Fi which is wireless internet connections. We also invented many new ways to communicate to each other through cell phones starting with sms or also known as texting. Texting is where a keyboard is on your phone to type a quick little message instead of having a long conversation on the phone. When you get bored from sitting, we have programmed games on our phone so you can have fun as the time passes by.…

    First I would like to talk about the history of cell phones. Now a days you see people on cell phones all the time. To see just how much things have changed in the last little while, all one has to do is pick up something as simple as a detective novel written no more than 10 or 15 years ago (SHC). Getting a hold of someone wasn’t so easy. You had to call them on their house phone and leave a message if they didn’t answer. There was also the pager, which was an electronic device that receives messages and signals the user by beeping or vibrating. If someone didn’t have a pager like in the 1980’s getting a hold of him or her while they were doing something was a difficult task if you didn’t know where they were. The idea that you could call someone's office phone and be relayed automatically to their cell phone while they're stuck in traffic on the 401 would seem like pure science fiction even to people living in the 1960s -- people who thought Star Trek's "personal communicators" were a futuristic innovation (SHC). Cell phones were a dream to many people and technological scientist. Having a device where you can talk to someone miles away in seconds wasn’t possible. Twenty-five years ago, the phone cord was cut and a revolution began (Cellphones). But the first cellular phone wasn’t made that long ago. After decades of planning and testing, the cellular phone finally emerged as a consumer product in…

    Cell phones have evolved from just a means of making a telephone call while away from the house or office. Cell phones have become ingrained into our daily lives. Cell phones today are miniature computers. Cells hold data including addresses, phone numbers, date books, and a calculator. Cells phones have an alarm clock built in to wake people up when traveling or napping on the job or to alert people when it is time to leave for an appointment. Of course the cell phone remembers the appointment as well. Cell phones allow people to do more than chat the hours away. Cell phones entertain people with games or internet access while waiting in traffic or waiting in line to get a drivers license.…
