Mobile Phone
A mobile phone (also known as a wireless phone, or cellular telephone) is a very small portable radio telephone.
The mobile phone can be used to communicate over long
distances without wires. It works by communicating with a nearby base
station (also called a "cell site") which connects it to the main phone
network. As the mobile phone moves around, if the mobile phone gets too
far away from the cell it is connected to, that cell sends a message to
another cell to tell the new cell to take over the call. This is called a
"hand off," and the call continues with the new cell the phone is
connected to. The hand-off is done so well and carefully that the user
will usually never even know that the call was transferred to another
cell.
As mobile phones became more popular, they began to cost
less money, and more people could afford them. Monthly plans became
available for rates as low as US$30 or US$40 a month. Cell phones have
become so cheap to own that they have mostly replaced pay phones and
phone booths except for urban areas with many people.
