Cellular network From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Top of a cellular radio tower A?cellular network?is a?radio?network distributed over land areas called cells, each served by at least one fixed-location?transceiver?known as a?cell site?or?base station. When joined together these cells provide radio coverage over a wide geographic area. This enables a large number of portable transceivers (e.g.,?mobile phones,?pagers, etc.) to communicate with each other and with fixed transceivers and telephones anywhere in the network, via base stations, even if some of the transceivers are moving through more than one cell during transmission. Cellular networks offer a number of advantages over alternative solutions: increased capacity reduced power use larger coverage area reduced interference from other signals An example of a simple non-telephone cellular system is an old?taxi?drivers radio system where the taxi company has several transmitters based around a city that can communicate directly with each taxi.

Each of these cells is assigned multiple frequencies (f1?-?f6) which have corresponding?radio base stations. The group of frequencies can be reused in other cells, provided that the same frequencies are not reused in adjacent n
